"I can't say enough good things about Adam Bishop! (ABG) While isn’t a professional landscaper or gardener, you’d never know it by looking at my yard. He came in and completely transformed the space—tackling a massive weed problem in my garden, neatly edging and bordering all my flower beds, and even getting rid of dead bushes. The level of effort, care, and hard work put into making everything look immaculate was incredible. If you need someone reliable, hardworking, and thorough to clean up your garden beds and outdoor space, I highly recommend reaching out to Adam (ABG)! Jerri Kozlowski,"

"We had severe draining issues and garage flooding with a reverse pitch driveway and retaining walls that funneled the water under our garage door too fast for our pump to keep up. Before photo included too. Justin developed a grading plan using CAD software that was more advanced than the inspectors were even knowledgeable about. We removed a whole wall and hill, tripled the size of our drains and the driveway now fits 6 cars instead of 3. The work was high quality and crew was respectful, dedicated and hardworking. The rock wall was way beyond my expectations and people actually stopped in the middle of the road to tell the crew and us how amazing it looks. I chose cement for durability and visual appeal but they gave me many options to consider. You can't go wrong working with this team, they go above and beyond to solve your issues."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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. 

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.
