"We had a complete yard, front and back, design and execution of the design. Work involved removal of original yard and over grown plantings and unwanted trees. That work was done with care but very thorough. Then the new design was brought to life and transformed our outdoor space and its enjoy ability. We continue to utilize Outdoor Aesthetics for ongoing work for spring and fall cleanup as well as refining our yard as we tweak the plantings to enrich enjoyment."

"They cleaned up the mess so well! I had a roofing company out earlier this year, and they left garbage everywhere, so I wasn't sure what to expect. David and Jim were both delightful and very hard working. Watching them tear down the old garage was scary but thrilling because they were such professionals. But, again, the clean-up was just over the top beautifully done. It was a hard project to do since no one wants to demo their garage, really, but in the end, the work was well-done, the customer service was fantastic, and the end product was exactly what I hoped for."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.
