"Amazing job by Regenerative Gardenworks! They took down a large tree & a few smaller ones on my property that was positioned dangerously close to my building. Watching them handle the removal safely without a crane, it required incredible skill and precision rigging to drop it safely without any property damage. Dennis and Brandon's technical skills, safety measures and careful maneuvering were impressive. Excellent cleanup afterward too. Aubrey and his crew are hardworking, professional and reliable. Fair price too. Highly recommend!"

"I hired Andy and his crew to clean my windows this spring and I could not be happier. They did an outstanding job, my wife and I are extremely pleased. Great value for the service provided. I definitely be asking them to come back again when I need their services. I would highly recommend Andy and his company for their cleaning services. Very courteous and professional.

"Overall, went well although project from start to finish took a long time (not entirely due to Waterscapes).  I would have liked if they could have coordinated the railings as once the stairs were done it took another 6 weeks to get new railings installed.
Bottom line, stairs and walkway look great."

"Chris worked with my schedule to get a foundation in and also fixed up my driveways, made great suggestions. He showed up and completed the work exactly as he promised and kept the site tidy all through the project. A pleasure to work with!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.
