"Two man crew. On-time. Assessed area, brought in back hoe, very organized, dug hole, and removed tank. Removed all hose lines in the house where connections were. Filled in holes, cleared area, very professional and through. We purchased top soil and reseeded lawn after C2G left."

"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"

"I called for a fall cleanup during probably their busiest time and they gave me a very reasonable quote within hours and scheduled an appointment in a matter of a couple of days. The crew was hard-working, polite, careful with regard to property and respectful of the neighbors. When they finished, I barely recognized my yard! It was completely cleaned of fallen leaves, debris and they even mowed my lawn!! I was so pleased I canâ  t wait to book them for my spring cleanup."

"They responded to my request to look at my project immediately, and came to my house the same day to look at the job. They were able to do my project within 2 days, after I spoke to him. it wasnâ  t a huge project but it was urgent because I had water leaking into my basement from the rain. They Excavated around a cinderblock foundation, put on waterproofing on the cinderblock in the same day, they came back the next morning (Christmas Eve!) And backfilled the dirt and finished in a couple hours. They cleaned up everything beautifully when they were done. They did a Great job, and I couldnâ  t be happier with him. I well definitely use them again, and I would highly recommend them!"

"Rony and his team are fantastic. They did a complete overhaul of my lawn from soil to sod, trimmed trees and added hardscape. It looks fantastic. Price was reasonable. Crews were great. Work was done FAST. And they accommodated my last minute changes. These days, every home service pro is super busy and stretched thin. I am so glad I was patient and waited for Rony and his team."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

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

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
