"I enjoy the professionalism and attention to detail that Patrick gives my lawn. I am giving them a 5-star rating for their exemplary service. I like the edging Patrick does to the lawn and deeply appreciate that they don't pollute the environment by using a blower. I have a portable soccer net in the backyard and am deeply appreciative that Patrick moves the net(s) mows the lawn and then places the net back where it is. Thank you Christopher James and Patrick for your service "above and beyond." I recommend Just Breathe LLC highly."

"Art arrived ready for work and cleaned out my jungle flower beds. Scooped up and loaded in a trailer. He then removed about 1 foot of soil, packed the loose dirt and graded smooth. Hauled off 3.5 loads of brush and soil. Quick, efficient, careful, and expert. Couldn't be happier. All for a very fair price."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

The average cost of excavation is around $3,200. Most jobs fall somewhere between $500 and $15,000, depending on the amount of soil to remove, whether or not there are landscaping features or structures in the vicinity that could complicate the excavation, and the quality and contents of the soil. Larger jobs will naturally cost more, as will those in tight spaces that demand manual excavation as opposed to using heavy machinery. Hard soil and tree roots can also extend the job and drive up your labor costs.

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.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.
