"The job was a complete remodel from floor to ceiling. We replaced tile and carpet with engineered hardwood, gutted and remodeled 2 bathrooms, new kitchen cabinets, countertops, backsplash and appliances. Updated plumbing and electrical, removed walls, scraped popcorn ceiling added can lighting and painted. The job also included all new solid wood doors throughout, and new trim and molding. I would recommend Green Hills Construction in a heartbeat! I was kept in the loop throughout and the end result is awesome."

"Nice guy. Hard worker. Charged less than initial bid. Did a great job. Was on time. Finished hour early so cost was less than original bid. He excavated property, got rid of blackberries, put all in neat piles for future burning."

"The project was demolition of an old swimming pool to code and filling it in with dirt. Ray is a hard-worker, never complained about the 100+ degree weather, reliable, finished the project in the amount of time proposed, gave a fair price and made my life easy. Project required extra (unforeseen) equipment and he actually split the extra cost with us instead of making us pay the full extra amount. Would use him again and recommend him."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

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.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

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.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
