"I was contacted the same day as I posted my need, Mr Franklin came by and gave me a reasonable price to do the work and stated he could do it the next day. He picked up the supplies from Lowes where I had ordered them and brought it to my home. His crew did a great job of replacing 5 shrubs and laying new mulch. They were efficient, and were friendly while doing the job. I am very pleased with the work they did. Would definitely recommend them to others. Thanks again, Bea"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.
