"Jake and his team were awesome to work with and they'd be the first I'd recommend for any excavation job big or small. He was able to make our vision for a backyard into a reality and worked tirelessly (weekends included) to make it happen. Jake was on time, honest and dependable, which is unheard of in the current market!"

"Excellent job! Dave was the first to quote the job and had a better price. He came with crew on time and finished everything I'd requested in one full day as quoted! The work involved extensive tree and brush removal as well as trimming branches to open up view corridors. I wholeheartedly recommend Dave. If he quotes you a job, he will deliver."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

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.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.
