"Two years ago I started working on this project. Found companies and called. Only one person called back. Got frustrated and quit. The yard and shed just kept getting flooded every time it rained. So I decided to try again to find a company who could fix my drainage problem. Got on Angie List/Homeadvisor for recommendations. KVB called and set up to come out. They were wonderful to work with from the very beginning. Got back within the week with an assessment. Got 3 assessments KVB was the best. Contracted with them. As soon as the weather broke they were out. Gene did an excellent job and even helped with digging a small pool for me. If you need an excavator this is the company to use. They are the best. I feel so lucky to have found them. I highly refer them. They certainly are a + 5."

"Highly recommend! They were quick, fairly priced, Mark is super knowledgeable and genuine. His son Samuel ran downspouts underground and did some excavation to fix some grading in our backyard where there wasn't good drainage. Our new construction home is one step closer to looking finished! We want them to come back and do our final grading!"

"Alan was on time, very pleasant,respectful of my property, took great care to conform to my specifications, and did a good job. He cleaned up his work site when finished. In this age of slip shod workers, he was a refreshing and welcomed contractor. Thanks, Alan!"

"Cole was very professional and polite. Asked me what I was looking for. He mapped it out for me. I needed the ground leved and set up for my She Shed to be delivered. Finished in a day. Reasonable pricing. Weather was a little rainy but that didn't stop him from doing an EXCELLENT JOB. Worked within our schedule. Constant communication Cole. We WILL be hiring tem again for other projects."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.
