"George and his company were very prompt and professional. He offered great advice on what was needed and he gave a very honest assessment of what needed to be done and how I could save money without sacrificing quality or the integrity of the finished product. These are qualities you don’t see much anymore when profit is the priority. Do yourself a big favor and use George and his team at M&W Excavating. I highly recommend them.9"

"We had looked for tree cutting services before, but the prices were outrageously high. Butcher Boys Land Care was more than reasonable. They cut a 60 foot oak tree by our barn down with expert precision. The wood was then cut and stacked. Good service with a good price. We will definitely use them again."

"We hired Palmer Foundations and Flatwork to pour our foundation, porches, chopped walls, and floors, and let me just say ? they absolutely knocked it out of the park! From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly skilled. Every single detail was executed with precision, and the final result truly exceeded our expectations. Not only does everything look phenomenal, but it?s also solid, clean, and built to last. They showed up when they said they would, communicated clearly throughout the project, and worked hard even through some tough conditions to get the job done right. If you?re looking for a concrete crew that takes pride in their work and delivers flawless results, look no further than Palmer Foundations and Flatwork. We couldn?t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly, highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.
