"Joel did a great job turning some raw undeveloped land into a beautiful up hill driveway. The job involved rebuilding a stone wall, tree stump excavation, sculpting over 250 yards of soils into gentle slopes and finishing the job by spreading gravel for the new driveway. Joel is a master at working an excavator and has excellent work ethics. I am looking forward to having him back to do the next round of work on my property."

"H&H Landscape completed saved me, twice!! I contacted them once I realized I needed a yard clean up basically the next day due to Easter, and then again a week later when I realized I needed mulch and garden bed care for some real estate photos. Both times the owner Justin came right away, and then I was able to schedule everything seamlessly through the office with Lauren. Everyone was so responsive and easy to work with, and the actual crews that showed up to do the work could not have been nicer. And they did a phenomenal job. 12/10!!"

"What an amazing experience we had working with Jerry at StoneWall Landscapes! Jerry is an excellent communicator and problem solver, both in the quote phase as well as the execution phase of the project. As a non-expert in the paving and drainage departments, I have some rough ideas of what needs to get done, but Jerry made it into a reality with lots of great options and their pros and cons. We love our new permeable parking space and privacy fence, as well as our renovated drywell and the solving of a drainage problem caused by some new construction last year. Throughout the project Jerry provided excellent communication and workmanship. Jerry was on-site very frequently and personally handled the excavation. I think that great independent businesses often come down to one great individual; Jerry is that guy. We would work with Jerry again in a heartbeat."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.
