"I hired this company to do a small tear down of an old shed, and they did a fantastic job. They was on time, worked efficiently, and cleaned up the area thoroughly afterward. Communication was clear throughout the process, and the pricing was fair. I’d definitely recommend them for any demolition or removal work!"

"The best tree removal I've ever experienced. I had a 50+ foot maple overhanging my garage and another just as tall close by. Bernie examined the second tree and suggested that it be removed, as well, because there were indications that the "heart" of the tree had rotted. Turned out he was right. Bernie's crew arrived on time. They were courteous, efficient, and they were well-equipped. Because of the location of the trees, they had to be de-limbed before they were cut. Their Track-Lift made the operation safer than climbing and cutting. Once the limbs had been cut and lowered to the ground, they cut lengths of the tree off from the top. All well controlled, well coordinated, and safe. After that, per contract, they removed the limbs. We kept the trunks for fire wood. Then they raked the debris from the driveway and used a leaf-blower to finish the job. I couldn't have asked for better service. It was a pleasure watching them work."

"Brandon and his crew dug a 3 foot deep 75 foot long ditch for a new water line through a heavily landscaped terrace where a mechanical ditch cutting machine could not be used. I cannot begin to describe all the ways they were thoughtful about the project and careful to preserve the existing landscape. He had to reschedule the first meeting for the job estimate because of a time conflict, but we met the next day. The following day his crew showed up and completed the project in just two day. The ditch location required cutting through hard clay. The company can apparently do many different kinds of projects besides landscaping. I will definitely hire Brandon and his crew again for other projects."

"This company is the only one that showed up to look at the work I needed done in person. Had 4 acres I needed cleared and graded, not only did they do the work but they also showed me a couple other things they could do to really get the most out of my property! I will definitely use them again for future work now that I know that they can run my water and sewage lines for my new house.. Thanks Chad!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

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