"I reached out to Kris about lawn mowing this spring/summer. He was immediate with his response and came out right away to begin his service (even when it started raining). He was so fast, but very pristine with his mowing which helps so much since we have customers around often. I?m so grateful for Kris?s help and really look forward to using his business this spring/summer and hopefully years to come! Highly recommend!!"

"Very knowledgeable. Very hardworking. Workers like this are not easy to find. I was extremely pleased after having been in the landscape business myself for 22 years they did it exactly as I pictured. Very hard to find someone who will do this type of work correctly."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

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.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.
