"Village landscaping did a phenomenal job on my home. Chris worked with me in identifying the main priority projects, and brought in a very professional staff that finished project faster than expected. His attention to detail, management, and ability to take in and apply owners input was a breath of fresh air. The pricing was on point and the contracting process was seamless. The finished product was above grade and at a very good value. I will work with him again, and highly recommend him for drainage solutions, grade sloping, and other landscaping projects around your home."

Soon enough , we realized we had no idea how to proceed with our outdoor space. He hired Andres general construction, they provided guidance and a great customer service. We are very pleased with the outcome. I will be definitely hiring them again for future projects. Thank you Andres!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

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.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

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.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.
