"Should be NO STARS. After agreeing to project, Currans kept delaying the starting date for 7 months.

(no activity in April) 20 May 2025 – Inquired and Currans replied: “waiting for weather to clear” 1 Jun 2025 – Phillips: Asked to postpone until July, due to travel. 8 Jul 2025 – Inquired and Currans replied: “You all are on the schedule”. 26 Jul 2025 – Inquired and Currans replied: “Yes, sir. 100%” that we are on schedule. 31 Jul 2025 – Inquired and Currans replied: “Shooting for August 16th” 15 Aug 2025 – Inquired and Currans replied: “Yes sir. You’re up next week.” 28 Aug 2025 – Inquired and Currans replied: “Yes sir. Things have been hectic between your schedule and mine. I will let you know something definitive this afternoon.” Nothing heard since 28 Aug 2025"

"Peach Paving contacted me soon after I requested names of pros to redo our driveway. They gave us the best price on the job so we hired them and so glad we did. They communicated well with us and our driveway was a mess before the redo so when they finished the job it was GREAT! We also ask them if they could do some excavation on our front yard at the last minute and they gave a great price and an exceptional job on that also. I highly recommend this company!"

At iRock we are dedicated to the homeowner! our equipment and our services are sized to fit the needs of residential homeowners. driveway grading, limestone delivery and spreading, bulk landscape material to save you money! Send us a message and let us rock you!

"iRock consulted with me on what was being filled in and how big the beds would be. They calculated the amount needed and it was just about perfect! They delivered on time, even after letting me know they may be a few minutes late, and then carefully unloaded onto our driveway. The rock was beautiful "as is" but they also told us that if it got wet it would be even prettier, and they were right. I would highly recommend them for any landscaping needs!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It takes two to three hours to trench 100 feet with a mechanical trencher or 10 to 12 hours if digging with a shovel. The total time to dig a trench depends on the depth, width, soil type, terrain, trencher type, and your level of experience. Digging in clay or rocky soil takes longer than soft ground.  

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

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.

Trenches are typically 12 inches to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, your city or county may have specific ordinances that clarify the dimensions needed for the project. For instance, a water pipe may need to be 24 inches deep, but a drainage pipe may need to be 36 inches deep.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.
