"They were quick and efficient putting in a 150ft drainage pipe in my yard and a trench drain behind my driveway. To top it off they incased the drain in cement the length of the back of my driveway and did it all in just over a day. I used to have a small pond in my backyard, especiallu with all the crazy rain we have been having but the drain diverts it beautifully!"

"Had some scrap and other rubbish laying around my yard that I wanted cleared. I found K&D and inquired about having it removed. They responded in a timely manner and were very reasonable with pricing and flexible with availability. Will definitely be using K&D for all future needs. Could not recommend them enough!"

"Nathan was always available when I texted him. He answered all my questions quickly and professionally.He clearly laid out what he was going to do and provided a clear time line. He communicated when he was going to come to my house to do the project. He also communicated with me throughout the project. He did amazing high quality work and went above and beyond my expectations. The project was completed in a timely fashion. I could tell from when he came out to give me an estimate that he truly cares about his customers. He clearly takes his job seriously and ensures he does the job right the first time. I couldn't be happier with the job he did. I never had a concern during the subsequent heavy rainstorms that the drain pipe he installed wouldn't work perfectly. If you are looking for a person/business that will do extremely high quality work and will make you feel extremely comfortable throughout the whole process CJM excavation is the company to go with. I highly recommend CJM excavation."

"They demo'd my driveway that I need ripped up and had it prepared for the pavers to come in. Also took down two trees and a small hill in my back yard that I wanted leveled, graded and seeded it. Would highly recommend."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.
