"We hired Jaren to do some excavation around our home and clear out an old fence and some brush. In the process, some serious deterioration of our foundation was discovered. Jaren was able to recommend someone who could fix our foundation problem and he took care of all arrangements. It was nice to have someone who went beyond what we had hired him for to get things done right. Very professional and knowledgeable. Would definitely hire again."

"We had a 35 foot tree removed from the front yard. Completely satisfied in every aspect in fact I had recommended them to three other people within the first week after my work was completed. These are some skilled hard working people who charge a reasonable price. As far as the clean up is concerned I swear the yard was cleaner after they left then before they got there. I will definitely hire again!"

"Cameron & Jeffrey worked like dogs to make a very dirty, neglected apartment look presentable. The refrigerator looks like new. Their price was lower than my other bid. They showed up on time and stayed until I was satisfied. That's all I could ask for."

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.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

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.

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.
