"It went great. They exceeded my expectations in the work and the time it took to do it. Although they primarily specialize in tree removal they did a great job removing brush and the stuff in the brush."

"I reached out to Wise Choice to have my old fence and driveway gate replaced and they absolutely delivered! I was very impressed with the level of customer service and the quality of the work performed. They've helped me with multiple projects this summer from fencing to roofing and I would gladly hire them again for my next project!"

"We wanted our yard regraded, retaining walls repaired, and large boulders moved. The end result exceeded our expectations. They listened to what we wanted and offered some great suggestions. They showed up on time every day and completed the project early. Would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a landscaper."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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 mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
