The work was completed in less than 1 day where other companies told me it would take several days to a week. James did a great job!"

"If there were more stars check, I'd mark all of them. Mac and his team were awesome. From clearing thick forest, creating pads, arenas, driveways, complicated septic fields and more - they were great. Reliable, when other (unrelated contractors were MIA), Mac and his team were always there when needed. They went over and above in so many ways, that even my neighbors came over to personally thank him/them for being so professional and conscientious to each different neighbor's needs. They took care to leave various trees present that added curb appeal to the home setting, placed boulders around areas to protect the integrity of newly created roads and kept things neat and tidy. This was without me asking or any expectations, as I was out of state. But Mac kept me engaged with their progress by sending me updated photos of every accomplishment. I arrived with equine in tow (from several day's drive) to the property prepared for my arrival. Mac and his crew were even there to help unload my animals and set up equine accommodations. Mac and his crew are professional, organized, have GREAT equipment and I would highly recommend Sandpoint Excavation to anyone looking to do 'anything related to dirt'. They do it all!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.
