"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"

"Of the six companies I talked with, TRC showed up on time to examine the site and provide an accurate estimate. Others did not show up. TRC was up front about a start date due to their work load. Due to our flexibility, they were able to fit our "small" job into their work flow earlier than thought. The job crew show up the day prior to review the job site and coordinate start times, material delivery and job completion. They started on time and completed the entire job in one day. Most excellent work. Very professional team. Would most definitely recommend."

"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."

"After getting several estimates, I asked Brett to come over to provide an in-person estimate. He sent a very reasonable estimate that included demolition and haul-away of some cement work in my backyard. He also asked if I wanted to add 2 yards (give or take) of large granite rocks along my fence line that I've been wanting to dispose of and be hauled away, for a small additional cost. He showed up on time and made quick work of the cement walkway and the fire pit area, as well as the granite rocks. Brett is a friendly, professional, and he has the skills, knowledge, and the right equipment to get the job done in a timely fashion. He cleaned up whatever mess there was, and it looks great for the next phase of my backyard renovation. I would highly recommend him and his company for any demolition needs. Here are the before and after photo's."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.
