"Sean Farrell Excavation Inc. did an excellent job installing a driveway drainage system at my home. The quality of the materials was commendable, and Michael and the project team executed the work very effectively from start to finish. The team's clear expertise showed through. I highly recommend Sean Farrell Excavation Inc.!"

"For a 6000 sf lawn reconstruction from rocky excavation leftovers with 30 cy of loam. Marc fit me in next day. His equipment , skills, and attitude are top notch. In 5 hours he removed the bad excavated material, graded, prepped, and distributed the loam - ready to seed. He was excellent and very cost competitive."

"H & H was contracted to perform heavy equipment work to position a number of large boulders on our property. The team was super to work with. They arrived with a large tracked excavator with grappler configured to lift and perform 360 degree positioning, and worked with us to arrange and configure the 4,000 to 5,000 pound boulders into position. The crew were great, they were concerned about achieving just the right look, and got everything just right. We could not have been more pleased!"

"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."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

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

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.

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.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain.
