"Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): Patterson Custom Concrete is an outstanding company to hire. They can do the easy stuff or the complex projects. They are legit concrete Subject Matter Experts (SME's)! As a retired US Marine with 20+ yrs of service, I needed a company that delivered high quality work, done in a timely manner, that listened to my concerns and was capable of adjusting to new discoveries as we progressed in our project work. Billy Patterson the company owner came to my project site the day after we talked on the phone. His expertise and enthusiasm to address my project blew me away. His ability to leverage mobile apps for payment was a huge upside for me as well. He had a solution for every concrete challenge I gave him. I even fact checked him and everything he said was spot on from industry standards and best practices. Site Lead Tom Perillo attention to detail gave me more comfort during the entire time. Hire these SME's to get it done right!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.
