"Cody was easy to communicate and work with: returned calls and/or texts timely, listened carefully to my stated goals, then he and Roger traveled from a distance to my overgrown, jungle-like property and gave it a 9-hour haircut, leaving it looking trimmed, healthy and making it much more accessible for use. Exceeded my highest expectations. In one day, saved me years of weekend work I neither have the time nor capabilities to perform successfully. Their Fecun brush mulching monster was a wonder to behold in action. Not only was the work down superbly well, but the whole operation was amazing and entertaining to observe first hand. Their mulcher shredded overgrown and thick vegetation (much of it as large as full-grown Russian olives) in an incredibly short time. What remained on the grown resemble "beauty bark" which will work its way back into the soil and avoids the need for burning (putting massive amounts of smoke into the air) or hauling to a dumpsite (adding to cost). On top of all of that, Cody and Roger (son and father team) are great people to hang around with. Nice folks with a good sense of humor. Best money I have ever spent on land management, and I recommend CK Excavating to anyone without reservation. Will no doubt bring them back at some time in the future for more help."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.
