"L&L Property Service did a fantastic job trimming several redbud trees, lilac bushes, and small boxwood shrubs at our home. They were very easy to get ahold of, friendly throughout the entire process, and provided a quick estimate. Once we approved the work, they were back shortly after to get the job done. They worked methodically, made sure everything was done to my liking, and were very cost-effective. I really appreciated their attention to detail and professionalism. I would definitely recommend L&L Property Service to anyone looking for reliable yard work and landscaping help."

"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!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

After you successfully remove your boulder, you have a few options for what to do to get rid of it. You can rent a dumpster if your yard has many boulders or if you’re planning a larger project. You can even save the boulder and reuse it elsewhere on your property to save on landscaping costs. A few ideas include using the boulder as a natural, abstract statue, breaking it into smaller pieces to line your garden bed, or offering it to a landscaping company that could reuse it for another project.
