"Had a large stump & roots beneath grade.  Animals couldn't stop digging into it, and the sinkholes were a mess.  Pierce gave me an initial quote, but I wanted him to excavate well beyond the stump to make sure (if needed).  The full job, with my extra request, was to run about $1,400.  It was supposed to include grading of the surface with premium topsoil.
They came and did the job, but they only did the stump diameter (about 6 ft).  Pierce said they didn't feel we needed to go further.  Also said they didn't need any topsoil.  Said the area might settle a little as we go forward, and may need to add some soil in the future.  I thought that was a little odd, since that should have been anticipated with the original estimate.  So, I held off on this review to see how it would go.
It's been a few months, and things are going great.  Caught a vole digging out there the day after the job, but they must have realized the difference.  Haven't had an animal hole or sinking spot since.  I still think there might have been a mix up with the crew and the topsoil, but nonetheless, Pierce quickly took that amount off of the job.  He gives a great cash discount and, at the time at least, an Angie's list discount.  The whole thing cost only $500.
All in all, Pierce was very professional and responsive.  He is very quick to get back to you, and very prompt with the service.  He could have very easily done an inflated job at my request, rather he was very quick to give money back to me and say, "you didn't need that".  Had I known I could have corrected the major issue in my back yard for that price, I would have called Pierce a long time ago.  I would definitly use him again."

"First-rate experience from estimate to completion.  Mark, Mark Jr. and their hardscaping guys were everything you'd expect from a professional hardscaping company and more.  They were the only ones to explain exactly what they were going to co in detail.  None of this "just throw the pavers down and run."  They properly excavated everything and took their time to ensure that the job was done correctly.  Despite that, the work was done faster that I expected given that the worked a full Saturday.  I let Mark choose the stone to match my stone house and could not be happier with his selection.  They even did things that I never expected.  His hardscaping guys are true craftsmen and very hard workers.  
This is a company with whom I expect to do considerably more business, and how many times do you say that when dealing with most contractors?  Their landscape design guy is next, and I'm hoping for big things from him as well.
If you're looking for a company to do what they promise at a reasonable cost and in a professional manner, you cannot go wrong with Greenstone Gardens.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.
