"Great company to work with.... I had several projects for the past couple years including: 2 ponds dug - no leaks & holding solid, built roads, had coverts installed, clearing of land and trenching work for electrical. I would highly recommend, they've done a wonderful job every single time. Extremely professional to make sure it's done right and that you're happy with services provided. I would work with them again on any project needing large requirement in the future."

"Stephen and his crew did a great job rebuilding my deck. It was a big job due to its size, but they built a very solid deck and did everything I wanted. He also made sure some damage around my house due to water problems got fixed. I have recommended him to several friends."

"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.

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.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching.
