"I was very impressed with Creative Outdoor Design all around. First, the communication was great. Stacey told me when the crew would arrive. There was a one day delay and I was notified. The crew was very hard working, took great care on my property and went above and beyond. Left the sight in perfect condition. The foreman (Louis?) was very precise and made sure ever paver was level. Price was very fair. I highly recommend and would definitely Use them again."

"Jose and his team did an excellent job. I hire Cali Landscaping to plant 17 trees in my backyard to reduce noise from the road. They were very professional, even dug up some existing tree to try and save them. It was raining upon their arrival but that didn’t stop Cali Landscaping they proceeded with the project. Jose is very knowledgeable about design and planting trees and shrubs. Would recommend Cali Landscaping for any landscaping services."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

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.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
