"I hired Dirt-N-Turf for a landscaping project involving tree clearing, land contouring, and the completion of rock retaining wall, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work. From start to finish, their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a commitment to perfection that sets them apart. The tree clearing was handled with precision and care, ensuring the safety of our property and buildings while efficiently removing unwanted trees. Their equipment appropriate to the job made quick work of the job without compromising on quality. The land contouring was equally impressive, transforming uneven terrain into a beautifully shaped landscape that perfectly suited our vision. They took the time to understand our needs and provided expert recommendations to improve the project’s outcome. The rock retaining walls they completed are fantastic. The craftsmanship is evident in every detail, with carefully selected stones arranged to create both functional and visually strik"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables.
