"Joel is a consummate professional who cares about the client and about the work. He doesn't stop until the job is complete and the client 110% satisfied! Clearing land and moving trees around a family home that needed dirt brought in, built up, leveled off and trees moved to ensure that water flows away from the house and that there is a pleasing space around the home. A man of integrity, good will, and a great sense of humor! And he cleans up! More than a fair price. We're sharing his name with everyone we know."

"?????????? Excellent Land Clearing Service! I couldn?t be happier with the land clearing work done by Ag Site Services. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and easy to work with. The crew showed up on time, had all the right equipment, and got the job done faster than I expected ? without cutting any corners. They cleared several acres of thick brush and trees on my property, and the results are incredible. Everything was cleaned up neatly, and they even graded the ground to make it look smooth and ready for the next phase of my project. The price was fair, and the quality of work was top-notch. If you?re looking for reliable land clearing done the right way, I highly recommend Ag Site Services. They exceeded my expectations in every way!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.
