"I cannot say enough good things about this land clearing service! From start to finish, the crew was professional, efficient, and incredibly thorough. They arrived on time with well-maintained equipment and got right to work, treating my property with care as if it were their own. What impressed me most was the attention to detail—not only did they clear the land exactly as requested, but they also made sure to remove debris, smooth out rough areas, and leave the site looking clean and ready for the next stage of my project. Communication was excellent throughout; I always knew what to expect and felt confident in their expertise. Their team worked quickly without cutting corners, and the results far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing land cleared. They delivered exceptional quality, fair pricing, and true professionalism every step of the way."

"It was great doing business with Darryl. My project was to prepare for a garage build so it was on the smaller side. It was challenging to get anyone to actually look at my lot to give me an accurate estimate. Others were just giving me generic estimates based on a picture. Darryl showed up and took measurements and provided an accurate estimate. It was less than half as other estimates."

"Jason was prompt and gave me an eta from his GPS before pulling into my driveway. Jason is a very polite young man. He informed me of his recommendations on which trees must be trimmed or fully eliminated. I recommend Stonehouse Creek Land Management for any tree removal and trimming."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

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.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

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.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.
