"Austin and his crew were a joy to work with; very personable and professional in every possible way. They did an excellent job with both the tree removal of a large River Birch and stump grinding of it, as well ans another large Ash tree that was previously cut down. They also did a wonderful job with our excavation project for pouring a sidewalk alongside our garage. Overall a 10++ rating!"

"We had a challengingly steep slope at the back of our property that needed weed removal, grading , replanting, sprinkler replacement, stone retaining wall repair and fortification. Gary was a knowledgeable problem solver and worked alongside his crew to make sure everything was done properly. He said what they would do and they did what they said! I highly recommend the company. Lani P. Hidden Springs, Id"

"Adam did an excellent job of installing pavers for our front walkway to our driveway. He also installed low-voltage lighting along the walkway. He was excellent in his follow-up to fix some minor issues that came up with the lighting. Adam was very good at explaining what needed to be done and giving us options when options were available. I would recommend him and I will be giving him a call when we are ready to put pavers in our driveway."

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. 

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

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

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.
