Q: How do I locate buried sprinkler lines?

• <div><p>The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don&rsquo;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&rsquo;ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below. </p></div>

Q: Can I partially bury an above ground pool?

• <div><p>Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they&rsquo;re more affordable is that you don&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How far under the ground are sewer lines buried?

• <div><p>The answer may vary based on where you live. Residential sewer lines are generally buried 5 feet to 6 feet under the ground. However, it's not uncommon to see pipes buried as deep as 8 feet in colder climates in order to ensure that piping is placed below the freeze line. Digging depth could impact your sewer line replacement cost.</p></div>

Q: How deep can you dig for a basement?

• <div><p>Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You&rsquo;ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.</p></div>

Q: Can I DIY trenching or edging?

• <div><p>Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can&rsquo;t exactly hide an unfinished&mdash;or worse, ruined&mdash; landscaping job from the neighbors. It&rsquo;s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.</p></div>
