"I had them take down multiple trees before completely regrading the newly cleared land and they did amazing work. Scott and Blain were both easy to deal with on the phone and in person. They were able to get the job done much quicker than expected. I would highly recommend for any and all tree work or land management."

"Very courteous and professional . Arrived on time and completed work as promised. Very reasonable rates compared to other tree services. Was very happy and surprised he gave a military discount on the cost of this project which you hardly see anyone doing. Really helped us financially due to on going covid 19 restrictions. Like to mention our neighbor was best neighbor in working with us in getting the trees removed that fell on his land during the high winds event in our area. God bless him and his wife they are the best neighbors anyone could ask for."

"Too Tall was very polite, professional, dependable, and reasonably priced. He did a great job in repairing my yard and reseeding it. My yard was a total disaster after having a new septic drain system installed late in February. The company (Benjamin Franklin Plumbing)that I had hired to replace my drain field was supposed to return my yard back to normal but failed to do so. They are plumbers, not landscapers. I hired Too Tall to come in and re-excavate and reseed my yard. It took him less than 4 hours to complete this and did an excellent job. The grass is now coming in nicely and my yard is smooth and will be very easily mowable. I am very pleased with his work and would highly recommend him to others."

"My backyard had been dug up due to septic tank repairs. There was nothing left but ugly red mud. Dustin covered the entire backyard with Zoysia sod. He did an awesome job and was so respectful and courteous. Thank you Dustin for restoring our backyard. We are happy now that we know someone to call when we have more projects that need attention."

"Zach was very professional and always quick to respond. He came out and did a great job. I needed 15 post holes and even with some rock and tree roots in the way he was able to knock the job out quickly. I would definitely recommend him for any work you have."

Excavating questions, 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.

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.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

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.
