"I hired Israel Trucking throughTerrence Underwood and his team to remove trees and debris after Hurricane Helene. They did an excellent job of removing and grinding a fallen cedar tree and other trees and debris in my yard. They also tore down and removed a shed and it's many contents out of my backyard. Although the entrances to my backyard were too narrow for them to use some equipment that would've made the job easier, Terrence and his team cleared the yard and it's contents by hand -- with no complaints. I am excited about continuing to work with them for future projects. The services were scheduled quickly after I contacted them. They take pride in making sure to clean up well. The team worked without supervision and were true to their word....I didn't have to worry about whether they would show up or not. Finally, the prices for services were very affordable - they didn't' try to take advantage of me as a customer. I highly recommend Israel Trucking for fantastic work! "

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
