"I recently hired this contractor for a full home demolition in preparation for a new home rebuild. The project exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, their customer service was truly exceptional—they were professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to making the process as smooth as possible. Communication was outstanding at every stage, Most importantly, the project was completed exactly on schedule and stayed within the agreed-upon budget, which is rare and greatly appreciated. The quality of their work, combined with their reliability and integrity, makes them a contractor I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a seamless and stress-free experience. Harris S."

"Lee's Yard Works came to my rescue before an Open House to sell my house --- after 7 other services did not want any jobs under 5 men and $1500. I think Lee did a Fantastic shrub bed clean up, mulching, clipping palm branches hanging from tall trees, and taking off palm yard debris, clipping branches, and making everything really pretty. What a great, friendly, fairly priced business! Great work ethic too ! Thank you Lee ! I highly recommend this business and appreciate the hard work!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

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.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.
