"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I highly recommend Four Seasons Landscaping & Hardscape. David and his team did an outstanding job on several projects around my home. They repaired an older brick chimney, applied a protective sealant, installed a new chimney cap/lid, repaired crumbling bricks on both the side and front of my home, and installed a French drain along the side of the house. From start to finish, David was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent. He took the time to clearly explain the process, outline expectations, and answer any questions I had. Communication was excellent throughout the project, and I always knew what was happening and why. The team was efficient, hardworking, and respectful of my property. Their attention to detail and quality workmanship were evident in every aspect of the job. Everything was completed as promised, and the results exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a contractor who is reliable, skilled, professional, and communicates well, I highly recom"

"We thought we had a sinkhole but Corbin determined it was a huge, old septic tank! In one day it was fixed. He communicated well and tried hard to repair grass spots that equipment dug into as well as smoothing out the fill dirt. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.
