"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."

"Hoyt Industrial Works was contracted to complete HDPE repair and install condensate lines at a hog farm in Virginia. Chase, the owner and operator, was very professional and was easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. The job was completed without a hitch and in a timely manner. We look forward to using Hoyt Industrial Works in the future."

"Before they showed up, my yard looked like it was auditioning for a Discovery Channel documentary. A few days later, it looked like it belonged on a landscaping magazine cover. Great communication, fair pricing, and they treated my property like it was their own. I’d hire them again in a heartbeat… assuming I can convince my wife we need to clear more land. 10/10 would let them bulldoze my property again. The only complaint I have is now my wife expects the inside of the house to look as good as the outside."

"Levi and his crew did a fantastic job with our kitchen remodel. He promptly contacted us after our my Home Advisor request for a quote. He provided a detailed quote that was reasonable and attentive to our concerns. He finished the job within the expected time period proposed, and the quality of his work was obvious. He worked with us on a day to day basis getting our input on matters and choices needed during the job, and offered sound advice and guidance. Unlike some other local contractors we interviewed for the job, he seemed eager to please with his work product and was considerate of our thoughts and ideas. We would highly recommend him for a remodel project and will use him again for future projects."

"I had a septic field that was 30+ years old. The county was requiring a whole lot more than i was anticipating. Austin Benton was referred to me by a friend. He always returned my calls, and was very prompt to explain and help me understand what i needed. Austin was quick to deal with inspectors and worked diligently on a not so easy fix for my residence. I cannot overstate this enough. He and his crew did a tremendous job. If everybody had work and business ethics that this young man has the world would be a better place."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

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 easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.
