"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"

"I used their service over a year ago and was super pleased with their work. They were very professional and knew their way around the many tree types on my lot. I couldn’t have been more pleased. I took too long to review their work because we sold the property and moved shortly after they trimmed the trees. I definitely would recommend them and would use them again if I ever need their service."

"We thought we had a sinkhole but Corbin determined it was a huge, old septic tank! In one day it was fixed. He communicated well and tried hard to repair grass spots that equipment dug into as well as smoothing out the fill dirt. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire again."

"Tracy was great from start to finish on our project. He was prompt in getting in contact with us, prompt in coming out for a quote and got started on the work in a week. His crew was great, very hard workers and kept up the good work through out the 3 days our project took. Even when surprised by an underground concrete slab, Tracy didn't miss a beat, and got back out the next day to face the problem and finish the work. We are very excited to have Tracy help us on our next landscaping project!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

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.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.
