"We had an urgent job with a large broken tree branch in our front yard. We also had 3 tree stumps requiring removal, but we delayed removal because of fear the equipment would damage our lawn. Blue Cord has light equipment that removed the stumps without damaging our ground. Highly satisfied with the end results."

"We bought a new house but going back and forth with the other house I knew we needed some type of service to mow the lawn and keep things neat for us. So I googled lawn service and found this wonderful company. We arrived yesterday and with the weather things really took off. So I texted Mike and they were here this morning. Everything looks great and everyone was so nice and friendly.I know now that the house lawn will be cut and look great. One big load off my mind now. Would recommend This company to anyone looking for lawn car"

"We hired the Davis remodeling company in June to rid our property of a tremendous amount of yard debris. Larnell was quick to respond and came out promptly for an estimate. He did an amazing job, which was not easy on an extremely hot day! Estimate was reasonable and would definitely recommend! He is also a very nice and professional person!"

"We were really impressed by Adam when he came out to give us an estimate. He was very friendly and professional, communicated his understanding of what we wanted, and did a thorough evaluation of the work needed at our property. He and his team arrived on time on the scheduled day and completed a huge amount of work in one day. Our garden beds have never looked better!! We were really pleased with the completed work. We'll use them again in the near future for some additional yard projects we want to complete."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.

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.
