"We had severe drainage issues in our yard that damaged our foundation and landscape. Most professionals we contacted suggested short-cuts, as the real (long-term) solutions were very complex and costly. Kevin was the only one who came to us with the full package of long-term effective solutions and the expertise to handle all of it. He diagnosed, repaired and saved our foundation, regraded our property, and installed a beautiful new patio and landscape that others in the industry have complimented. Kevin is a perfectionist and his work shows it. To anyone looking for a cheap fast job, look elsewhere. But for effective drainage solutions, extensive construction knowledge, plant & landscape expertise, and amazing quality of work, you wonâ t find better than Kevin."

Customers say: Quick response

"Ron Pellegrino, Inc was a pleasure to work with. They were flexible around my needs and my availability, and completed my project exactly as I hired them too. I needed a very large tree stump/root system excavated from my yard, and the area resloped. Pellegrino came in and completely the job quickly and efficiently and finally no more awful chewed up stump in my yard! They even put down grass seed and covered it with straw, which was above expectation. I will definitely hire them again for furture projects."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.
