"These guys did an outstanding job of fixing the flood damage we had from Hurricane Helene. A ditch line that runs the length of our property was seriously eroded which resulted in our driveway and yard becoming unstable. These guys came in an took on an extremely difficult assignment and stabilized our property. To be honest we were unsure that the yard could ever be fixed. But they definitely got the job done. They worked tirelessly and treated our home and property like they were doing the job for themselves. They never took a break and completed an almost impossible task in short time frame. There is no way I could give these guys a stronger positive recommendation for the work that they accomplished. I will never use anyone else to do a task like this in the future. The only issue is that they are in high demand, and we had to wait 9 months for them to get an open appointment to get the work done. But in the end, it was well worth the wait!"

"It's not often that someone truly impresses me, but this young man did exactly that. From the very beginning, his professionalism, communication, and business sense stood out. He carries himself with a level of maturity well beyond his years. His crew did an outstanding job trimming my trees and left my property spotless when they were finished. The cleanup was just as impressive as the work itself, and he kept me informed throughout the entire process. I've been in sales for over 10 years and have worked alongside many seasoned professionals, yet I've met very few who demonstrate the level of professionalism, follow-through, and customer service that he does. He has an incredibly bright future ahead of him. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality work, excellent communication, and someone who truly takes pride in what they do."

"Ryland developed a plan to overcome a multi year erosion problem that was aggravated by installation of a Generac system and the burying of a 250 gallon LP tank in my front yard. Ryland executed the plan in two days. Within 20 minutes of completion, he design was tested and found to be successful by a significant downpour."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

After you successfully remove your boulder, you have a few options for what to do to get rid of it. You can rent a dumpster if your yard has many boulders or if you’re planning a larger project. You can even save the boulder and reuse it elsewhere on your property to save on landscaping costs. A few ideas include using the boulder as a natural, abstract statue, breaking it into smaller pieces to line your garden bed, or offering it to a landscaping company that could reuse it for another project.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

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.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.
