"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 posted on Angi and Matt responded immediately and was friendly and professional. He made an access entry from the original basement wall into my addition. There was little to no cleanup for me after! Job well done to Matt and Dickie. I highly recommend Smithtown Landworks."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

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.

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.

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.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
