"John James was great! John came out , listened to what we wanted offered a few suggestions. It was over a month later when we were finally ready to have the work done and he was able to come out with a couple of days notice .He demolished the out building , graded and re-sloped our land laid down some fill. He gave us a reasonable price and did the job to expectations!. Great to work with!"

"Y&C landscaping did several projects in my yard such ans installed a fence, repaired a fence, build a timber playground area using wood chips . They also are replacing sprinkler heads that needed to be moved due to the project. The entire crew was hard-working, respectful and neat. The price was very fair and I am already considering them for a project for next year. Highly recommend."

"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!"

"They replaced eight wooden poles for a stockade fence that was falling apart. The sections were removed, new poles cemented in place along with metal poles for extra support. Very thorough and very professional. Did the job and did it well. It is very windy today and my fence hasn't moved an inch."

"Diego and his crew did a great job! This was a large 1,200 square foot patio area renovation that included a paver patio, pea gravel patio, grass (sod), cobblestones and a new privacy fence. I then hired him to mulch the property (20 yards). He came when he said he would, cleaned up and got the whole project done in a little over a week. Highly recommend!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).
