"Jared did an amazing job and was very thorough in his work. He prepared the site work for a retaining wall behind a newly installed pool and the attention to details in where he placed the drainage was perfect. The following week we had a tremendous amount of rain and it kept all that water well away from the pool. Took a lot of pride in the work he did for us and can not wait to work with him again on our next project!"

"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!!"

"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"

"I hired Matt to prepare a site for a shed we have ordered. He replied promptly for a request for an estimate. He explained what needed to be done and gave me a fixed date when he could do the work. Throughout the project, he kept me apprised of the progress and explained the choices that needed to be made. I was impressed with the care with which he approached every aspect of the project. Just a great guy to work with."

"Rob did an absolutely amazing job on our steps. He was quick in his response time and he came out and took care of the work and helped me with some other small issues with my porch as well. I will be using him again in the future and ensuring that if anyone asks for a pro that he is the one I recommend."

"AMD Masonry was hired to dig a trench and install piping and crushed rock to prevent further water damage to my basement. They did a fantastic job, were very professional and were very punctual. I could not have asked for a better job to be done. I will definitely hire them for any future projects I may have."

"I had a very positive experience working with StrongBack Systems on a retaining wall project. Greg and his team were prompt, professional, courteous, and far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that is in need of a similar project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

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.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.
