"We recently had our backyard project completed, including land leveling, a retaining wall, and repairing pavers that had settled during the dirt hauling process. We are very happy with the final result. The contractor completed the work within the agreed timeline and delivered everything as discussed in the project scope. His pricing was reasonable, communication was excellent, and he paid close attention to detail. Any issues that came up during the project were addressed promptly and professionally. The before-and-after photos speak for themselves—the transformation is outstanding. If you’re looking for someone who provides quality workmanship, fair pricing, and delivers what they promise, I highly recommend him. I would confidently refer him to my family and friends."

"Kevin from Kearns Earthscapes came to my house the day after a significant rain storm. My basement was flooding out and he spent a good 1.5 hours assisting me. Not only did he provide me various solutions and walk me through all the options, BUT he also helped with some of the clean up (and removal of water)! I was very impressed. He undoubtably will get my business when I push forward with the repair works. I would definitely recommend."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

After you successfully remove your boulder, you have a few options for what to do to get rid of it. You can rent a dumpster if your yard has many boulders or if you’re planning a larger project. You can even save the boulder and reuse it elsewhere on your property to save on landscaping costs. A few ideas include using the boulder as a natural, abstract statue, breaking it into smaller pieces to line your garden bed, or offering it to a landscaping company that could reuse it for another project.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.
