Thank you for choosing Quality Snow and Ice Services, LLC. We offer premier tree and stump services and removal as well as servicing commercial snow removal clients. Please take time to take a look at the process of how we work and rest assured that your job will be done the right time the first time.

"Dave showed up and was initially very friendly. We agreed on a price and he started. I finished at an appropriate time, I left all of the wood chips and was notified that the dirt pile we were moving next to the stump may have covered some of the stump. He told me to let him know if some were left and he would come back for it. I tipped him an extra $50 for how fast he was and that he just showed up when we started looking. A couple of weeks later, I let him know some was left. Got a short okay I will come back soon. 2 weeks went by and then I reached out again asking if he knew when about he would be back. No more responding back to me. This was 2 months ago and we are now having to find a way to finish the removal ourselves after paying $550."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

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.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
