"Be prepared that while it is not inexpensive, the job is completed correctly and looks like it will hold up. They had to dig out the old and replaced with much deeper hole and this one has a lining. This is a 2 level water fall and stone looks great with color of house and surrounding area. This was all completed by hand no machine digging as there was not space. Thank you, Garden of Eva."

"Trey and his help did a great job on grading our swell which has been a problem ever since we moved in. It handled the recent storms very well and I am confident if we need any follow up with them they will fix it. Great work ethic."

"They delivered sand and spread it as I requested. They put down crushed stone and plastic in place of mulch. Looks good and should not have to be replaced every year like mulch. They did an excellent job of winter yard cleanup and trimming bushes and one Bartlett Pear tree. I would recommend them on any yard work needed."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables.
