"Wonderful crew to work with. Very concerned about making sure they understand the end result you are looking for and checking at different stages to make sure they are meeting that expectation. Every member of the crew that came to our site was courteous and left the job site looking as clean as they could every day. Highly recommend."

"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."

"Driveway is amazing. Can't wait for the other work. Quick, efficient and not a arm & a leg very affordable. Which isn't something we say much anymore with high inflation"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

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.

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.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.
