"This was the worse company I have ever dealt with. We signed a contract in March 2022 and on April 1st. 2022 the hole was dug. Fast forward to July when the rain had washed out the sides of the hole because Bill had not started any other work on our pool. He finally showed up with some pool walls and placed them. Fast forward to September. He put he the pool liner in and filled with water. Fast forward to November. He stopped working on the project. Fast forward to March 2023. He showed up to see what need to be taken care of to finish the project. Fast forward to May 2023 the project was complete. The concrete is cracking because he waited to long to saw cut expansion joints and he never came back to give us the $2000 pool cover we paid for. We sued him in February 2024 and won. He still hasn’t paid us. I’m writing this on February 22 2025"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

On average, you’re looking at about 12 hours to dig 100 linear feet. Your actual work time will come down to how many twists and turns there are when digging—such as rocky soil, tree roots, obstructions, and whether the ground is frozen.

Using a drill to bore holes in the stump's center speeds up the process, whatever method you use. If you don’t have a drill, you can still chainsaw or chisel the stump to make it hollow; it will just take more elbow grease and time. Steer clear of burning the stump to hollow it if you can’t drill some holes in it first. Otherwise, getting it to light, stay lit, and burn right through will be a challenge.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
