"We hired Finch to clear brush/overgrowth and take down some dead trees on a property we were selling and to bring the property back up to city code. Not only did Noah meet me at the property on short notice to talk through exactly what I wanted and give me an estimate, but he called the city inspector to be sure we understood what the city was expecting too. Noah was easy to communicate with and he kept me in the loop about progress including calls and sending photos/videos of the progress to make sure things were looking right since I wasnâ t on-site most of the time. He was helpful in answering my questions and explaining what equipment he had to do the work and when heâ d get it done. I would easily recommend Finch Excavating and would hire them again for future projects."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

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

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

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.
