"Carolina Pinewood LLC efficiently cleared approximately one acre of pine and various hardwood trees, as well as a variety of shrubs at my residence in just 5 days. They expertly mulched the shrubs and branches, preserved the trees I wanted to keep, and neatly stacked the debris. Their pricing was affordable yet competitive, and the online communication with the company was consistently professional and prompt. The owner, Filipe completed most of the work by himself. He was highly knowledgeable and readily shared technical information. I highly recommend Carolina Pinewood LLC for any land clearance needs, they receive a perfect 10 out of 10 rating in my book."

"Ask for Jon!!! Jon has definitely gone above and beyond in every aspect from driving an hour away same day, to inspecting and cleaning and fixing my propane fireplace in almost 1 hour. Along with this long strenuous process of trying to search and call for a company who would schedule and quote and being told I would have to pay $100+ just for coming out. Fairway plumbing i high recommend for great service at a low price. Jon was there to save the day. I know some stuff wasnâ t in his job description. He answered every question. Even the dumb ones. I was very blessed that Jon worked on my fireplace as if it was his own, and even walked my Wife and I on the process of using it. Jon if you are reading this. Thank you again!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

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. 

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.
