"Galactic came out for a driveway repair. It was constantly washing out after heavy rains due to the slope. It had become difficult for me to get my car up it. And it’s long! The showed up when scheduled for both the estimate and to get the job completed. Smoothed everything out, brought out and spread 7 loads of crusher run and then packed it using a vibratory roller. Because they added the proper diverters for the water run off, the driveway still looks as good as the day they finished and it’s several months later. FedEx and UPS are in and out often and even those big trucks haven’t messed anything up. Very happy with Galactic and highly recommend them for any work you need done!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

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.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching.
