"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"Experienced crew and did the job right. Safely removed a very large oak branch that was over my house without even one twig hitting my roof. I will be calling these guys back to do more tree trimming and other landscaping projects in the future. They did the job fast and for a fraction of the cost the other guys quoted!"

"Taz construction did a outstanding job on our retaining wall and refreshed our hill with new plants and mulch. They cleaned up after the project was completed, along with doing extra work around the site. We will have them back on any further work we need done."

"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."

"They did an excellent job of cleaning up. My yard looks really wonderful right now, but they've got to come back and lay the landscape Escape Fabric and The Mulch, but they did such a great job. Everything they've done so far. I'm sure they'll do a good job on the fabric of the most. I mean, they're just really hard workers and really pleasant. Really nice to work with, I just sort of, never had a nicer group of people work for me. And especially Sante Luna. He's just such a delight. He's just very patient with an 81-year-old lady and explains things. And he's just wonderful. I said that he they have a lot of services, and I will be happy to use them over and over because they're so outstanding. They're hard workers and do a great job. They just do absolutely. They're high, very hard workers. They do a great job. They're very pleasant in Ba They're very reasonably priced. And they have. They do many things, so I will have them back over and over because they are so good. And I'm so excited to find them a widow and, I need help with my yard and they do everything imaginable. So praise God that I found them."

"Hired for tree removal, block wall upgrade, remove garden, install sod, tree removal and trimming of another tree. Excellent service, and fair pricing. They cleaned up after work was done even in the street where trucks for debris were stationed. Workers worked very hard and were very nice and did a great job. Mariano, the owner was willing to help out with things I forgot to mention at the bidding process and all work completed in the designated time. I would hire them again."

"Excellent communication and a quick response for our quote! Brennan is professional but also makes you feel super comfortable and relaxed as he has a chill demeanor. We called other companies for this project too and none of them were anywhere near as communicative as NMT. Highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
