Hello, this is Sean. Beginning at a young age I have worked besides my father in the excavation industry on Long Island specializing in foundations, septic systems and drainage- just to name a few. As the years have passed I expanded into managing both residential and large scale commercial projects on Long Island and in Florida. I enjoy working closely with clients to understand their vision. I want to know their wants, needs, and how they intend to use their outdoor space day to day. With this in mind I can use my balance of experience to shape the project into a solution perfectly suited to each client. Limitless Landworks was founded on client relationships and shared satisfaction. We do it all outdoors. The options truly are limitless.

"Great service and professionalism. Very polite and quick to respond. Extremely patient with all of my questions, Shared his knowledge and expertise regarding proper backfill options for retaining walls. Drainage stone that was delivered was of great quality. Quick response to inquiries and very fair with costs. Delivery was quick and I was communicated with through the whole process. Driver was extremely polite and helpful, he did exactly what I asked for with no mess, overflow, or driveway damages. Very pleased and strongly recommend this service. Will use in the future on all outdoor projects."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

The completion timeline for an in-ground swimming pool project typically ranges between 8 to 12 weeks, depending on weather conditions, the complexity of the design, and any unexpected ground conditions encountered during excavation.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

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

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.
