"Excavating Landscape Services ~ If you are looking for a qualified, honest, professional and reasonably-priced excavation contractor in either Greene, Christian, Taney, or Stone counties of Southwest Missouri, your search is finally over. Saddlebrooke, Missouri is an upscale residential development off Highway 65 between Springfield and Branson, where my wife and I were going to build a house on a beautiful idyllic lot overlooking pristine Bull Creek. Concrete footing with rebar for stem walls was poured and set years ago for a large house in Seven Pines gated subdivision. Then, our plans changed, we decided not to build ... Fast forward to the present, when we needed to restore the build lot to its original condition; which would require demolition and removal of concrete structure including rebar, excavation, adding fill dirt, and grading of lot to create a natural slope and contour suitable for mowing. A major project! Working blindly and knowing virtually nothing about demolition, landscaping, or excavation, I took on the rather daunting task of researching options and identifying qualified area excavators. During this time, I spoke with dozens of SW MO area excavators, and finally narrowed down the list to about a half dozen vetted contractors with their cost estimates. Careful marketplace analysis, referrals, a website presence, responsiveness for quote, telephone interviews, all this due diligence helped to separate the pretenders from the presenters; which all pointed in only one direction, and that was Carr Excavating and Landscaping, LLC based in Galena, Missouri. I am delighted with their work and the finished landscape project; bought in under budget and on schedule. Highly recommend Carr Excavating, simply the best, and the entire Carr Excavating and Landscaping Team was a pleasure to do business with ... Special thank you to Brent Carr and to Sheena Carr for making this such a wonderful experience, and restoring the natural beauty of 762 Seven Pines Drive, Saddlebrooke, MO 65630."

"Chad and his crew are seriously the BEST! He installed a huge wooden privacy fence for us and cleaned up several different areas of our yard in the process including old tree stumps, and problem areas we had with his excavator. We were so impressed with his crew and their willingness to be creative with the fence and build up a up to large tree that we loved to include them in our fence line. I could tell after day 1 of the build that details mattered to him and the crew truly were experts in the field. I feel like we were working with the most knowledgeable crew out there and felt taken care of the entire time. Outside of being thrilled with the final product itself, Chad was the most professional and courteous guy we have worked with! His communication was top notch and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. THANK YOU CS Excavating and Fence! We will recommend you to all of our friends and family."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

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.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.
