"Akua and Rusty are professional, capable, trustworthy and excellent at what they do. We needed a large backyard area cleared of old chicken coops, construction debris and old machinery, sheds and plant material. They arrived promptly and immediately came up with a plan to maximize their time and resources. They are smart problem solvers working with patient and positive attitudes and were able to remove 22,000 lbs of waste/trash from the property in 3 days. The invoicing was clear and the price was fair. I highly recommend Po Brothers! They exceeded all expectations. I will absolutely call them again."

"Tausinga Hafoka has done a number of projects for me in the past. They typically do rock and masonry work, but about 20 years ago they installed some pavers for my home as well. I always have been impressed by the quality of the service. The workers are always on time and do good work."

"Cutting Edge was a great choice in taking care of yard clean up, mowing, tree trimming, and they even helped in cementing in my flag pole. They were efficient, reliable, and hard-working. Prices were fair and worth every dollar! The projects were done quickly and with a careful eye. If you want any landscaping work done on Maui, I highly recommend Cutting Edge."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

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.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching.
