"I contacted Home Advisers looking for a company that could clear some land. I had just acquired. 17 1/2 acres of land that most people would pass up, a ravine to be precise , I wanted a retirement home.that was secluded and one with nature. It was completely overgrown with anything that would grow. John Allen from Boss Equipment contacted me. I met him on the property and kinda explained what I was doing and was hoping to accomplish. First stage came and John met me back on the property. Transformation of a pig to a horse as it was still an animal but showed a little grace. We selected a spot for the Home and garage and John and his crew went back to work. This horse is now a unicorn. Ità ¢à  à  s a one of a kind home site. Ità ¢à  à  s a rare find and the incredible work performed by John and his crew will take me through the rest of my life to the next. John Allen started out as a guy I hired to do some work and has become a friend in the process. John always kept me informed and sent photos of the progress along the way. Although this was not a fast process due to weather, power, water and septic I am impressed at John ability to get things done at each stage. Do I recommend John? Yes I do. I canà ¢à  à  t say enough good things about Him and his crew."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
