"David did a good job for me. He did exactly what we agreed on. Installed grasses and shrubs and put rock down. Also installed pavers. His company is professional and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend Four Seasons Landscaping & Hardscaping LLC"

"Huge shout out to Double M Groundwork! 👏 They recently cleared land in our backyard, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They removed the trees all the way down to the roots, so we weren’t left with a yard full of stumps, gave us an incredible view of our pond again, spread everything out evenly, and left the property looking fantastic. They showed up when they said they would, worked efficiently, and got the job done right. It’s always a pleasure supporting a local business that takes pride in their work. If you’re looking for land clearing or excavation work, I highly recommend giving Double M Groundwork a call! Double M Groundworks LLC"

"Tracy and his team designed and built a firepit and sitting wall, around our patio. We were impressed with the quality of work performed, the attention to detail and the results exceeded our expectations. As we move forward with other hardscape and landscape projects, Integrity will be our choice. Tracy truly is a "man of integrity" and he is deeply committed to providing the customer a quality project. I would highly recommend!"

"Had Ambience Groundwork do a gravel driveway at our place. Hamza came out, walked it with me. They stripped and graded it, laid base rock, and topped it off clean. Crew worked hard and cleaned up after themselves. It's been through a few good rains and still sitting solid."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

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

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

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.
