"They did a great job creating a gravel pad for our camper! He was able to complete the job just a few days after my first conversation with him. He was very easy to work with, very patient with my many texts, happy to troubleshoot some different ideas with us and offered professional and knowledgeable advice. I would gladly hire him again and would highly recommend him to others."

Hello, I’m a local guy born and raised right here in Columbia. I’m available to do all kind of residential ground work from reshaping your property for proper drainage to clearing trees and overgrowth for better views. I focus on selective growth management in which I remove all scrubby trees and undergrowth to maximize the life of the wanted trees. I also clear large amounts of land. I install drainage systems for gutter and footings to get the water away from your house.

"We have some property that was very overgrown with brush, thick nasty trees and old fence rows. We hired B & M Landworks to come clear it off. They were very prompt in responding and we communicated well. They finished the project in a very timely manor. We were so pleased with the work, we hired them to come again and work it over with bulldozing. He smoothed everything out so nice. He also cleared a pond a dam for us. He is willing to do anything you ask. I would definitely hire him again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

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.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.
