"I live in Greenland and our house is about 25 years old. Over the last 2 years, we noticed that some lawn depressions were forming on the side of the property that borders protected wetlands managed by The Nature Conservancy. Concerned about the increasing size of these depressions over time, we contacted John Welch, the owner of JWs Landscape Construction. John followed up immediately with a site visit and opinion that the cause of the depressions was burial of tree stumps and other debris when the contractor cleared the lot to build the house. John quickly provided us with an estimate to excavate and remove the trunks and return the lawn to its original condition. John and his team did an excellent job. It was amazing how many tree stumps had been buried in this area. We also have a lawn sprinkler system and his team was very careful about ensuring there was minimal disruption to the lines and heads. His knowledge about these sink holes proved valuable as well. I would highly recommend him to anyone who suspects they have this issue occurring on their property."

"I hired Matt to prepare a site for a shed we have ordered. He replied promptly for a request for an estimate. He explained what needed to be done and gave me a fixed date when he could do the work. Throughout the project, he kept me apprised of the progress and explained the choices that needed to be made. I was impressed with the care with which he approached every aspect of the project. Just a great guy to work with."

"We hired Christian to remove tree stumps on our property. He gave us a price the next day and started work within a week. His work ethic is incredible—he left the site spotless and communicated clearly every step of the way. Since then, he’s regraded our driveway, removed an old chicken coop, and cleared brush. It’s safe to say Christian is our go-to contractor now."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

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.
