"Sam and his team did an absolute phenomenal job on our recent property project. We hired them for land clearing, grading, and forestry mulching, and the results exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, Sam and his crew went above and beyond to ensure everything was done perfectly. Their forestry mulching left the property looking clean and usable, and the grading work was top-notch. They are professional, efficient, and clearly take great pride in their work. If you need any land management or clearing done right, look no further than Timberclaw. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!"

"I had ABS come out to clean up and refresh our backyard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Their quote was very reasonable compared to other options we considered, and they were extremely responsive throughout the entire process. They showed up when they said they would, worked efficiently, and did a fantastic job clearing everything out and laying pine straw. The attention to detail really made a difference, and the yard looks better than it has in years. If you’re looking for a landscaping company that provides great communication, fair pricing, and high-quality work, I highly recommend ABS. We’ll definitely be using them again in the future."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

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.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

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.
