"Sean Farrell Excavation was hired to do over our driveway. Sean clearly reviewed all the materials, steps involved, and hours that the crew would be at our property. The work was meticulous and on time. Reviewing the steps beforehand left us with no surprises and we were able to plan our day to day around it. We were thrilled with the finished results. Sean took the time to listen, relay it to his crew and deliver a gorgeous driveway. We even got a phone call when work was completed to make sure we were happy, something that rarely happens from a company owner these days. I would highly recommend him and his crew for any similar work."

"Our project included a spring clean-up, garden edging, the replacement of patio jointing compound, as well as the addition of loam, seed, mulch, and gravel. We are very pleased with the work completed on our property. Edison is a consummate professional. He offered multiple helpful suggestions to improve the appearance and functionality of our property. Would definitely recommend his company to others."

"Jerry worked with me to design and install front and backyard gardens with a beautiful stone patio and stone paths. His work is excellent and he knows his materials. He checked in with me along the way about decisions that needed to be made, even though that part was a bit stressful. I also appreciated his team because they were friendly and worked well together (and strong to deal with super rocky soil). We love walking the gardens several times a day and neighbors often stop to admire the beauty of the flowers and trees. We highly recommend Stonewall Pro."

"Rafael and his crew did an outstanding job getting our yard ready for the winter. The yard is spotless, they trimmed plants, even cut grass that we hadn’t asked them to do. Fast, very efficient, and good people to work with."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

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).
