"Justin and his team did an amazing job. Not only did they lay down mulch and clean up debris, the job they did trimming all of the shrubs and trees made the yard look like new."

"Xtreme Excavation and Grading was fantastic, my sewer pipe was backing up so i ran a camera and come to find out it was packed full with roots and waste, so I googled up some companies and got a couple quotes but the I called and spoke with Brandon (the owner of Xtreme) and him and his guys didn’t waste any time!! He told me the price (which was extremely reasonable nearly half as much as the other 2 places i called) came out the next day and fixed my issue, Very friendly and knowledgeable and they did great work!! I will definitely be keeping them in mind for future needs"

"All Services Management was first class right from the start. They were super fast on coming out to spec the job and give us a written estimate. The job was approved and the whole crew was out on time and on the promised date within a week of first meeting Sean, the manager. They were quick, clean, polite, and knew what they were doing. They were considerate of our neighbors by keeping the debris field in check, didnâ t blast music, never swore, and didnâ t block driveways. They cleaned up the street and driveway with brooms and a blower as if nothing had even been under construction at all. The very big job was done in a day and a half. Faster then we expected by far! We even modified it on the 2nd morning and they jumped on the change without a pause in the action. I would highly recommend this company!"

"Came to quote the job when he said he would, then came and did the job the day he said. Jason did a great job and went over and above, not only removing the concrete but filling the areas in with dirt, planting seed and covering it with straw. Cleaned up the area and the street after he finished and hauled the concrete away."

"GreenTHUMB Lawn & Landscaping went beyond what I expected by removing more than ten, of hundreds of year old tree stumps from trees I had cut down allowing our family to finally enjoy the beautiful space we have. The owner listen to my vision of what I wanted to see and i love my new graded backyard and new fire pit my best friend can now run and play safely on level ground, I no longer have to look at a crumbling concrete porch. I will be contacting Dalton when ready for the next phase of my project. I would recommend GreenTHUMB Lawn Landscaping for your next project I will."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

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. 

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching.
