"I have been stressing for a while with trying to decide what to do about years of erosion and damage from an Oak tree that I loved dearly. Darrell came out, walked the property, offered suggestions that made sense and worked within my budget. Job was completed (tree removed, retaining wall built to stop erosion and sodded) in less than one week. I have another tree to be removed and lawn sodded and I have my guy! Thanks Angi and Peachtwins!"

"Local Boyz was very responsive, very professional, and submitted a reasonable estimate. Ultimately I went with another contractor whose estimate was somewhat lower, and with whom I had done business in the past. But, while I did not hire Local Boyz for this project, I would be comfortable doing business with them, and will ask them for estimates on future projects."

"Tyrone responded very quickly following my online request for furniture removal. He was very polite and gave me a quote over the phone after I sent home some pics of the sofa and recliners needing removal. He made an appointment for the next morning. His crew, Keonte and Josiah arrived promptly as scheduled. Tyrone even called to let me know they were about 10 minutes away. The team was extremely polite and respectful of my property and had the items removed and loaded in no time. I highly recommend their services, and I will definitely reach out to them for my future needs!"

"It took a while but it was not the company's fault (it was the weather). The actual installation was professional and efficient, and the grass looks fantastic!"

"We hired Stephen originally to install new sod in our front yard after having some large trees removed. He did such a great job we have had him do several other projects that have transformed our entire yard. He is professional, knowledgeable and a dedicated worker. I wouldnâ t hesitate to recommend him to others for any landscaping project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.
