"Excellent work. Mark Lobmeyer completely demolished a mobile home with add-ons, removed all debris, and landscaped the area. He is a very hard, conscience worker. I would highly recommend him and Reese Construction for any demolition and recovery project."

"Wonderful customer service, prompt responses and scheduled very fast! Honest and offered multiple solutions. Installation of a French drain in our backyard and yard leveling-my husband is very pleased with the outcome. Says the owner was very friendly and stands behind his work-we would 100% use them again!"

"Our house burned down and Silva?s Hauling came in and helped break down, clean, and hauled all the trash to the dump. They worked fast and efficiently and communicated everything on time. Silvas Hauling LLC helped us in a time we really needed it."

"They did a great job. Ended up hiring them as my mowers this year. You should do the same. You won't regret it. Paul Snow and his son take pride in their work. My yard has never looked so good."

"Luis and his team knocked it out of the park. From responding to my project to the time it was complete was about a week. He was thorough and detail oriented through the entire project and was a great communicator. We are thrilled with the work that was done and will certainly be using them again!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’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.
