"????? Great Experience with Miller Concrete & Excavation We hired Miller Concrete & Excavation for a residential concrete project and couldn?t be happier with the results. Ian and his crew were professional, on time, and did excellent work. The concrete looks great and the job site was left clean. If you want quality work from a contractor you can trust, I highly recommend Miller Concrete & Excavation / Miller Construction Group."

"We hired REEM to handle a major seasonal cleanup and debris disposal for our commercial office park, and they exceeded our expectations. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and completely transformed our landscape. They cleared away all the heavy brush, fallen branches, and winter debris, leaving the parking lots and green spaces spotless. Their hauling and disposal service was fast and left no mess behind. Communication was clear from start to finish, and the pricing was very fair. We will definitely use them for our ongoing property maintenance. Highly recommended for any business looking for reliable grounds care!"

"Matthew was professional, courteous, kept his work space and equipment tidy, and his craftsmanship was outstanding. It was refreshing to find someone that was trustworthy and knowledgeable. In addition to putting in a new sidewalk, he also fixed a crack in my foundation, fixed a sunken downspout, and tree removal. He is an extremely hard worker and cares about the quality of his work. I will gladly hire Matthew for future home improvement projects."

"Anthony did an absolutely outstanding job on my property! He recently installed beautiful stone and steel edging, and the entire project turned out even better than I could have imagined. The attention to detail and quality of work really made a difference, and everything was completed efficiently and professionally. His pricing was great, he was extremely kind and easy to work with, and I was especially impressed that he showed up extra early and got right to work. He finished the project in a timely manner while still making sure everything looked perfect. I’m so happy with how my property turned out, and I will definitely be using Bottari Property Services every year from now on for my property needs. Highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for reliable, hardworking, and quality service! Thank you, Bottari Property Services! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

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.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

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.
