Customers say: True professional

"The crew were very courteous and hard working. They wanted to make sure I was happy with the design and end product. Chris knew all the plants, having a nursery background, and James designed the water feature. I couldnâ t be happier with how it all turned out, and everyone that comes to my home says it looks like a park. Even the owner of the company says itâ s the best yard space theyâ ve done. Outstanding!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an outstanding experience working with Noah from Aquarius Landscaping Design on our home in Jacksonville. He installed and repaired our sprinkler system and completely transformed the landscaping around our property, and the results are truly incredible. Noah’s attention to detail is unlike anything we’ve seen before. Every element of the project was thoughtfully planned and executed, and he used high-quality materials throughout. The installation was clean, professional, and clearly done with pride in the work. What impressed us most was the level of craftsmanship and care he put into the entire project—from the irrigation system to the overall landscape design. Our property looks better than we ever imagined. We are extremely thankful for Noah’s work and would highly recommend Aquarius Landscaping Design to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality landscaping done right."

"TK Excavation came highly recommended to us to renovate and upgrade our gravel driveway. Jordan met with us personally, reviewed the project, gave us an estimate and based on our acceptance scheduled the work right away. We are so satisfied and based on his extra efforts the driveway was completed prior to a significant rainstorm."

"Matt responded to my request quickly, and was able to come that same day. After inspecting my crawl space, he discovered I had a long-standing water leak that had run into the insulation under the house, and was degrading the foundation. He fixed the leak; removed and hauled away the soaked insulation; installed new insulation; reinforced the foundation where it had started to crunble; ran a French drain away from the foundation in case of future leaks; and treated mold on the floor joists. Matt is very good at what he does, reasonably priced and easy to work with. I would highly recomend him."

"We were contacted right away by the contractor who came out to bid the job within a couple of days. The work was started/completed approximately one week late due to equipment problem. The gravel brought in was not a sufficient amount to cover the area that was excavated so we had to hire another company to complete that part of the job. We had to finish grading the driveway by hand as it was torn up by the tractor tires."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.
