"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!"

Granny Creek Mulching helps homeowners, homesteads, farms, and rural properties reclaim overgrown land quickly and safely. We specialize in forestry mulching (brush, vines, saplings), fence-line and property-line clearing, pasture/field reclamation (bush-hogging), right-of-way sight-lines, trail creation/widening, and understory thinning for fire-wise spacing. Our drum mulcher on a compact track loader shreds vegetation in place—leaving a uniform mulch layer that reduces erosion and suppresses regrowth. Veteran-owned and focused on small-to-mid acreage (½–10 acres). We provide clear estimates, job minimums, and straightforward communication. Mulch remains on site; we do not haul debris. Based in Westville, SC and serving a 30-mile radius across Kershaw and nearby parts of Lancaster, Chesterfield, Lee, Sumter, Richland, and Fairfield counties. Tell us your goal; we’ll recommend the safest, most efficient plan to get it done.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

The average cost of excavation is around $3,200. Most jobs fall somewhere between $500 and $15,000, depending on the amount of soil to remove, whether or not there are landscaping features or structures in the vicinity that could complicate the excavation, and the quality and contents of the soil. Larger jobs will naturally cost more, as will those in tight spaces that demand manual excavation as opposed to using heavy machinery. Hard soil and tree roots can also extend the job and drive up your labor costs.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.
