"He did a great job. I bought a. existing home in December with an irrigation system. Chad came over and found I had two valves that needed to be replaced. Once this was done I had numerous pop up heads firing that I did not know existed. He replaced 4 spray heads and a module in the controller and programmed it. The system is working great now"

Hey everyone, my name is Hudson Lott. I recently started my own land clearing business and I’m working hard to build a name for myself and my company.\n\nI spent the last 6 years working for other land clearing businesses before deciding to take the leap and go out on my own. I’ve learned a lot over the years, and now I’m putting that experience into my own business.\n\nI take a lot of pride in my work and always strive to leave every property looking right and make sure the landowner is happy with the job. I believe in doing honest work, taking care of my customers, and treating every job like it matters.\n\nI’m just getting started, but I’m excited to see where this business goes. If you or someone you know needs land clearing or property cleanup, I’d appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

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

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.
