"Showed great vision for my project. Was able to take what we had asked for, and translate it into renderings to allow us to see what the finished product would look like. Finished product looked just like the renderings that we seen before project started. Very happy with the skill level of the people who did the actual work. I would highly recommend to any friends or family looking for landscape help."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

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

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.
