"Three-peat customer here! This time we had Hunter and his company update the backyard at our rental property. Per usual, a great job was executed in a timely manner. He went above and beyond to help us prepare for new tenants. We will be updating the driveway here later this year using his services as well."

"I highly recommend Carolina Land and Debris! They did an outstanding job removing leaves from my property. They took a considerable amount of time, never cut corners and honored the estimate they originally gave me. They had to work around bad weather and were professional and thorough from start to finish. When they were done, my yard looked better than it has in years."

"I need to get more pictures but these guys did a great job. They flagged it and walked it with me. They helped me clear property line boundaries and created amazing shooting lanes at each stand spot. They arrive early and stay busy working and had machines that didn’t break down or get stuck like others have. I highly recommend these guys! Top notch for sure!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

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).

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.

Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.
