"I have had Miller land management out to my property a couple different times to do a few different projects. From clearing out trees, to prepping and flat work under my concrete slab, to building my entire driveway, to grading around my building for proper water runoff. Would highly recommend. Personable and easy to work with. Very efficient with equipment."

"I hired Property Masters to repair some low areas in my front yard and also repair where a large tree was cut down and the stump was ground to below grade. Everyone was very friendly. They was very prompt on giving me a free estimate,scheduling the job and completing the scope of work. I can't say enough on how enjoyable it was to work with Property Masters. They are a professional company and back it up."

"Ryan was incredibly fast, courteous, and appropriately priced. I had a roof inspection done with him for a refinance mortgage, and I needed it done ASAP as other companies were falling through and not helping me at all. He completed it quickly and kept in communication throughout the entire process even if it was a very small job. I highly recommend him."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

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. 

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. 

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.
