"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."

"So I already had a quote and confirmed appointment from a local tree company, to do the job within 16 weeks. Well 20 weeks later still no contact from them. Got a couple quotes using Homeadvisor, went with Zacharias, did the job within a week... couple of trees down and pruning...on time, hard working, cleaned up area, fair price...totally worth the call if looking for tree work"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.
