Ask about our new "Trenchless" Excavation Services. What is "Trenchless" Excavation you ask? Well, it is most typically associated with the machine you see above. It is most notably used for installing poly pipe in the ground to install fiber optic Internet service. But...the drill doesn't care what it pulls back so it can be used for water, sewer, electric, and gas to get under roads, paved driveways, or just to keep from tearing up your yard. Maybe you have surface drainage or a lawn sprinkler system and don't want to damage it to install a new utility. No matter the reason, we now have another option to get you the end result you want or need. Also, partnering with our sister company Bowsher IT Solutions, we are able to build campus fiber projects or just get communication between buildings with the fastest option and least invasive approach! Feel free to check out all they have to offer on their website bowsherit.com.

At this time I have no employees, I perform all work myself. When necessary I use select sub contractors that I would trust at my own home. I do not collect ANY money upfront, bills are due in full upon completion and customer is 100% satisfied. I do not offer any special promotions or financing offers at this time.

Excavating questions, 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.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Professionals who complete perc tests can usually do them in a single day. Including excavating to expose the test site, filling the hole with water, and monitoring it while it drains, you can expect the test to take between four and eight hours total. It’s possible that you’ll get the results the same day, but some companies may take a few days to get official results.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.
