"I hired Daniel and Oasis Landscaping and Excavation for a fence build project. Daniel was very prompt with response to my inquiry. He shows up in time and was very professional and helpful. He provided a detailed quote and was available to discuss. Very pleased with quality of work and the crew left everything in good order. I am happy to recommend and would definitely hire him again."

"I had an emergency issue where a very large tree broke over an existing structure. I did not know them prior to hiring them. Thad was amazing! I was contacted within 2 minutes of making initial contact. Thad was at my property within 20 minutes and I had a quote within the hour. All on a Sunday. Thad was honest, reliable and very trustworthy. He and his team did a great job and this project wasnâ t easy. We ran into some issues that couldnâ t be avoided, but Thad worked hard to come up with a solution. Wow! I would definitely hire them again and recommend anyone out there to give Thad and his team a chance. Great work guys!"

"Their work was excellent. I liked the text messaging and voice contacts that kept me up to date on the process. They removed a tall (dead) Aspen right next to my house and brought in the proper equipment to make sure everything went smoothly. I thought price/performance was first rate. The only reason I didn't give them straight 5.0s is a slight delay (unavoidable on their part) that I wasn't kept up to date on. I highly recommend them."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
