"Highly recommend Down & Dirty Land Clearing LLC for land clearing! Honest, hardworking, and efficient. He showed up with the equipment and left with the trees — exactly how it should be. Our property looks amazing and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Bonus points for powering through the job fueled by what looked like a gallon of sweet tea — clearly part of the secret to getting it done right. 😄 If you need brush, trees, or overgrowth gone, D&D are your people. We’ll absolutely use him again! 🚜🌳"

"We had CS Excavating install a wood privacy fence at our house. The natural terrain of a hillside full of rocks presented challenges, but Chad and his crew tackled those issues and completed an outstanding installation for us! Chad did not use the flimsy pre-fabricated fence panels from a big box store. They set each post in concrete, measured and custom cut every board individually to ensure a straight, plumb, and level fence. It looks awesome!! Not only did CS Excavating complete the job on budget, they even finished early! If you need a fence or excavating work in the Branson area, you need CS Excavating!"

"Yes. The pro did the job right and efficiently! I had a pretty deep drop in the lay of the land right past the house. They sloped the land nicely, making a gentle slope with no danger of falls happening, making it possible to have a backyard behind the house. They also moved piles of dirt to other areas out of sight on the property I am very satisfied. I would highly recommend Brothers in Dirt!"

"DNS Excavation completed our land clearing/pond construction exactly as we had planned it. The dozer work was obviously done by an experienced operator, and they went above and beyond our expectations on clean-up and finish work. We will be using DNS Excavation for the next phase of our project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

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.
