"We hired Zingrone Landscaping to remove very old, large bushes from our front yard and plant new shrubs and trees. From start to finish, they far exceeded our expectations, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! Joe and the crew were professional, patient, kind, and incredibly accommodating. They moved plants around multiple times until we found the perfect layout and never once made us feel like our questions or requests were an inconvenience. They genuinely cared about doing the job right and making sure we were happy with the result. Throughout the entire process, Joe was always responsive to our messages. When we reached out after the project was complete with concerns about watering, Joe stopped by the house to answer our questions and make sure we felt confident caring for our new plants. We've worked with a lot of contractors over the past two years, and there are very few we'd call back for future work. Zingrone Landscaping is absolutely one of them!"

"The project consisted of excavating, installing a retaining wall, and grading the lawn following installation. Nick was prompt and thorough - often going beyond the original scope of the project to see that we got the best possible results. He is very knowledgeable making good suggestions and thoroughly explaining the pros and cons of the various options. Would definitely use again."

"I had Summit Outdoor Services tear down an old patio wall that was crumbling and replace with a Versa-Lok block wall. Seth and Anthony arrived within the timeframe that was indicated, and they made quick work of the teardown and install. The new wall is an absolute stunner, and I am so pleased with the end result!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

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.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
