"The attention to detail and the price paid for the project are the two biggest factors when selecting a company for work. I highly recommend Dan Bailey and his Minnesota Grown Services company. My property has never looked this great! Thanks to Dan and his staff."

"We have had 2 projects done this summer. After putting them off due to another company's high bid, we decided to try Clark and found them to be more willing to work within our budget. The job leader took time to understand our vision and the office communication was always immediate and timely. The crew was thoughtful and did a remarkable job of keeping the inevitable lawn damage to a minimum. After long hot days, they still made sure the work area was cleaned up each time. We are very happy with the outcome and highly recommend Clark."

"I have a Freind who was removing an above ground wishing well garden, offered me pavers. My neighbor across my street did landscaping so I asked him (Angel) if he could help me with the job. He drew a diagram of my plan and told me he would both take apart my friends garden but reassemble it in my soon to be home 3 miles from current home. He gave me what I thought was a generous bid and asked him when he could get started. He said tomorrow. I hired him and now have other projects I want him and his crew to do. Very conscientious and courteous work was done here. I’d hire him for any landscaping chore. He has the equipment and expertise combined with great people skills!! He is a great guy! Highly recommend his services."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

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.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.
