"Top notch company, I would highly recommend to anyone. Brad was easy to work with on our project. He stuck to his contract and cost. There were no surprise extra cost at the end. I used a company prior to them that basically botched the entire job. Brad fixed all of their mistakes and believe me there were many! Very professional and friendly company!"

When you need land cleared in a responsible, Eco-friendly manner, hire the reliable team at Wildcat Advanced Land Clearing. We are ready to handle any size job while providing an environmentally responsible service to ensure the land heals and replenishes properly. We use revolutionary advanced machinery to reduce the material on the spot providing a smooth mulch layer to control water runoff, soil erosion and to replenish the soil naturally. Our process is very different from the traditional large, heavy equipment clearing that harshly disrupts and strips the topsoil of its natural resources, opening the land to uncontrolled water runoff, soil erosion and a very slow healing process.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
