"Bullseye Excavating, is a class act companyif anyone is looking to have a pond dug, I highly recommend this Company. BILL came and looked at my pond sight, and instantly told me by the lay of the land that my pond could be larger if I wanted so , I told Bill I would like it to be as large as possible. Bill and his crew designed a beautiful pond for me with a small spring fed po.d feeding the larger acre and half pond. I could not be any happier! Thank you Bill,Grandpa, and Kevin! I"

"Izac was extremely professional and did not leave until I was completely satisfied with his work. He cleaned up and repacked some terribly washed out roads, and created berms to properly divert water. He has exemplary customer facing skills and knows how to creatively solve problems cost effectively. I would definitely hire him again for additional excavation work, and highly recommend him."

"Mayo plumbing is amazing! We called John for a leak from our main water line in our basement. He rearranged his schedule to fit us in & didn’t leave until the job was done. He was able to fix the leak with a less invasive method than what another plumbing company we had already contacted quoted us. Many thanks to John! If we ever need plumbing work again, he will be our only call!"

"Got off to a slow start. Seemed to be a miscommunication between general manager and project manager but once they started the remodel it was amazing. The downstairs bath turned out better than I had hoped. It was a small space with little room to expand - they put in a new stack, moved the laundry room wall and the end result was phenomenal! Upstairs bath has new tile in the shower, new lighting, new windows, and new toilet and vanity. It is my new happy place. Old tile was original to the 1940's house and awful. Tub was re-glazed and end result was beautiful, open and full of light! I am a happy satisfied customer and i will hire them again. The kitchen will be next and I will call Scott and John when I am ready!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.
