"The results were amazing. David and his crew came early and went right to work. They transplanted some very large hosta, pruned several flowering trees and bushes, and cut back several perennials. There was a huge amount of debris which they hauled away, leaving my yard â pristineâ and all set for winter. We will definitely use Edgar Landscaping and Construction agai.n."

"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"

"Davis and Sons completed a number of challenging projects for my wife and I. First, David Davis completed the trench work for installing an undeground electric utility that required him working closely with the municipal wiring inspector and my electrician. He also installed a large, steel rebar reinforced retaining wall in our backyard -- which was a tight space to maneuver. Davis also built us a very attractive concrete driveway and supporting L-shaped wall to replace a rotten, wood timber wall on the front of our house. Many of our neighbors have commented on the attractive retaining wall and driveway David Davis built for us."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.
