"Reached out to Outdoor X after getting a couple of other quotes for General Landscaping. Starling was prompt in returning my call and was clear about the Who/What/When and of course the Price. Very reasonable compared to some of the other Quotes/Terms that I was encountering. I gave Starling the go ahead for the work done. Was scheduled for 6/3/2024, I got up, went to work, came home after 4:30PM to a property I didn't recognize. Immaculate work, cleaned up the property. Definitely will be using Outdoor X for any future landscaping projects. Thank You Starling & the Crew of Outdoor X"

"Russell and his crew were top notch and professional from estimate to job completion. It's challenging to find a contractor that is flexible, responsive, and expert at what they do and they exceeded all of our expectations. They did a large excavation project on our front yard that set the table for a follow on large landscaping project and they executed the work beyond requirements. His team were even sweeping our driveway that they barely used at the completion of work! We will be using them for upcoming masonry work because we've seen all we need to see from Russell and his excellent crew. It's a rare opportunity for us to speak so glowingly about a contractor or craftsman and we're glad to do it."

"I couldn’t be more impressed with the crew. I fully expected them to need a heavy crane for this job, but they expertly climbed up and took the tree down systematically, branch by branch. Their level of precision and care was incredible—they made sure every single branch came down safely, completely protecting all of our surrounding decorative trees without a scratch. Meticulous, professional, and hardworking from start to finish. A job wonderfully done!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

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.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.
