"Anthony was very professional and clear on what was going to take place. Anthony and his crew arrived on schedule and completed the replacement of the broken sewer main in one day. No mess was left, grounds were smoothed out and ready for new lawn! Anthony's wife is very nice to talk to and takes care of any communication needed. My husband and I would highly recommend this company."

"Picturesque Incorporated did an amazing job! Highly recommend using them. Mike is honest and completely reasonable in pricing. He will work with you and your budget in order for you to be happy. He put crushed stone under my deck. I came home and everything looked perfect. He even watered my trees. I have called him multiple times for his insight on landscaping projects, i will be using him very soon again for multiple projects. Thank you Mike!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Josh was great from the start. Very responsive to my texts, emails and calls. He took the time to explain and show me exactly what he was going to do and how he was going to do it. He and his guys came here to dig out the driveway, lay down and compact the gravel. We also asked him to run a pipe under the driveway out to the side of where the driveway ends so that rainwater from the gutter wouldn't sit right in front of our garage door and freeze in the winter. He was able to do this without any issues. He came back a few days later to complete the job and lay down the asphalt. Everything looks great and we are very happy with our choice to go with Dejesus Driveways. Thanks again!"

Excavating FAQs, 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.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

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.
