"I had a sewer pipe issue in my front yard that had to be dug up and repaired and needed the pile of dirt the plumbing company left in my front yard graded and hydroseeded. I got online and we’re looking for landscapers and contractors in Davenport Iowa in the Quad cities and they responded right away and had a great price. Highly recommended!"

"Hired Martin Dirtworks to clear and remove trees, shrubs, and dirt from my property and bring in backfill. Was very professional and completed all phases of project on time and met budget. Very happy and recommend his services. Will be calling for future projects as prices are fair and great person to deal with."

"I highly recommend Ground Line Company for any excavation or utility prep work. I’ve partnered with them on multiple jobs, and their attention to detail is top-tier. They are precise with their depths and layouts, which is critical for electrical inspections and code compliance."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

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. 

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

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.
