"We couldn't be happier or more impressed with the job that was provided by Minimally Invasive Tree Service. Will is a consummate professional and, he and his crew are all highly skilled and work together as a cohesive team. Will dropped a tall, large-diameter spruce for us that was located directly adjacent to the house. There was very little margin of error for its placement. The resulting accuracy reminded me of the Babe Ruth story of his predicting placement of a home run. Home Run indeed - Well Done Will"

"I highly recommend G & G Landscape Design! They removed several very tall pine trees, cleared out overgrown bushes, and installed a beautiful wooden fence on my property. From start to finish, their communication was excellent—they kept me informed throughout the entire process and were always quick to answer questions. The crew was professional, courteous, and clearly took pride in their work. The tree and brush removal was completed efficiently, and the fence installation exceeded my expectations. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the finished project has completely transformed my yard. If you’re looking for a company with exceptional customer service, great communication, and high-quality work, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. I’m extremely happy with the results!"

"From the first estimate to the final cleanup, the whole experience was great! They were professional and showed up when they said they would. They completely transformed our yard with new landscaping, mulch beds, and trimming, and everything looks clean and polished. Fair pricing for the amount of work. We’ve already had neighbors asking who did our landscaping. Highly recommend!"

"Very well. Mike and crew were prompt, diligent, and hard working. Mike communicated well before and during the job. We had a young tree planted and some clearing and planting of several bushes as a backyard border. Clean up and overall appearance are great. Can't wait till spring!"

"Lawrence was an excellent contractor, he contacted and coordinated with the gas company and with Galloway co-op. He checked in regularly with me and even tried to get a temporary tank when it was discovered that my propane levels would not last until the delivery date. He wasted no time and came early to start excavation a day before delivery and that a great job burying and leveling the Earth after the tank was installed. Very professional, would recommend."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

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.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

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.
