"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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"

"Philip did a great job! I asked for some changes and some extra work, which he gladly did without raising the price from his original bid. I am very satisfied with the job and will be using him again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

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.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

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.
