"Was in the market for replacing our homes front walkway. From start to finish, first receiving a quote in August from Michael, and deciding thru all the quotes to work with this company. The crew lead by Dan worked wonders for our front walkway. First started out on a Friday 9/12 preparing the area to be worked and finished an amazing, outstanding job on Monday 9/15. They worked each stage of this project, taking their time, taking care of all areas to what I call awesome. I am sure I will be working with Travers again, because of their outstanding work."

"My family owns Cape Sand and Recycling in Brewster and Dennis. They also have other large residential properties. Apex is the only company we use now for irrigation, fertilization and general maintenance issues. We had several other landscapers that never did as good a job as Apex Landscaping.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

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

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
