"This is our third year working with Minnick landscaping for our spring cleanup, and we couldn’t be happier. They cut and shaped the beds, beautifully, applied mulch, evenly, and took on big projects like removing old, overgrown shrubbery. They also helped us choose the right replacements and plant them so everything looks balanced and healthy. Every year, our yard looks completely renewed thanks to their hard work. We truly appreciate their reliability, quality, and how respectful they are of the property. Excellent service every year. We also feel that they are very competitive with pricing and look forward to having them come back next year. We are already planning our next project with them."

"Josh and his crew from Mr. Miller Concrete did a fantastic job of removing our 20x40 inground pool. The communication was great and the entire crew was extremely nice and did all that we requested. Although the work was delayed due to weather they were excellent, and I would highly recommend them."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.
