"Will and his crew did a great job. Nice guys, gave great advice in regards to trees that showed signs of decay. They showed up on time and completed on time. The crew took down some trees very close to my house and my next-door neighbor's house with precision and no damage to either property. Not an easy job! The guys also took some deadfall from a past storm, which was very helpful to us. All the guys were nice to talk to, very accommodating, took the extra step to go above and beyond. Dropped trees with precision!! Also left me with a nice supply of firewood cut into 24 or 36-inch long logs for my fireplace. Please note that prior to hiring Minimally Invasive, I had requested quotes from 7 other companies. 2 were no-shows, and out of the other 5, they either grossly overbid the job or seemed like they would be abrasive to deal with or just plain unreliable. One could not even tell me which month he could do it in. When Will and the crew finished the job, I told the guys that he (they) are my tree guys for life. Great group of guys, worked their rear ends off and were respectful of my property."

"Great Experience! I contacted G&G Landscaping to help me clean up and landscape my front garden area. They responded right away we talked about my ideas and then met with me to discuss the details. I got the estimate the next day and was told they could get me in the following day to get it done. They came when they said they would they were professional, got all the work done in one day and it looks fantastic! It is exactly what I wanted. They even weeded out some extra areas and got flowers put in. When I got back from work everything was cleaned up so well you wouldn't have known anyone was there doing work that day. Highly recommended. I would hire again for sure."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

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.

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.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.
