"I recently hired Frasier Site & Tree Solutions for a tree removal project, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial estimate to the final cleanup, the entire process was professional, efficient, and stress-free. The crew arrived on time, worked safely, and removed a large tree that was in a difficult location without causing any damage to my property."

"Adam and his crew responded quickly in clearing a tree off my mom’s house that fell during the tornado on Thursday, Feb. 6. They were there on Saturday, removed tree, cleared trees from front yard and tarped the roof. A+ in response time and communicating with client. We will use them again!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.
