"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."

"Steven and his crew were able to come to my residence for the requested work the next day. They showed up on time, and performed the required tree limb removal & haul away in under 2 hours. They left the job site totally clean, and without any equipment damage to my lawn. I highly recommend Carolina Lawn and Tree for your next tree service needs!"

"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

"The service was excellent! The tree was dead and had started to fall but got entangled with other trees. It was a tricky removal, but they did it expertly and removed all the wood. Carl returned two days later and ground the stump down to below ground level and raked it all level. Very professional and courteous. The price was very reasonable. Will use them again should I need to."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.

Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.

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.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.
