"I hired Clark Companies to do grading, bury gutter down spouts, and install decorative rock around my house. They did a great job, finished up in a day, and planted seed to restore the grass that was unavoidably disturbed. Iâ m very pleased, highly recommend Clark Companies and would use them in the future."

"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

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

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.
