"This job was just initially a tree trimming to handle the overgrowth on our property line, but they went above and beyond! The tree trimming went exceptionally well with all the tools and expertise they brought to get the job done efficiently and effectively, but they didnâ t stop there. There were vines and brush entangled in the trees that we were not even aware of that they handled with ease, but even with all that extra work they still went above and beyond by bringing in additional equipment! They brought in a mini excavator to clean up the site and made it look like it has always been this beautiful!!! We are beyond grateful for all of the hard work they did, the due diligence to go the extra mile, and the willingness to ensure that we did not have to do any â post jobâ cleanup like we have experienced in the past with other contractors. Because of the exceptional job they did, we are looking forward to employing them for additional work around our property. Highly recommend for way more than tree trimming and they have the equipment to do far more! Looking forward to working with them again!"

"I was left high and dry by another contractor. I contacted homeadvisor on Sunday morning. I was immediately called by Midwest Dirt Work's. Larry said he would come the next day. He actually came and did the work!!!!! I was so tired of waiting for people to show up and getting stressed. I definitely recommend Dirt Works. I will definitely use them again when the need arises. Larry was excellent and did a great job! Thanks so much!! Lyla"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

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.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

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.
