"Having just moved back to El Paso, I bought a home that had *zero* landscaping in the backyard. Basically I had a mud pit every time it rained. I asked some of my neighbors for recommendations and the best one was about BC PRO. So I did some research about them and found that they're rated in the Top 10 Landscapers for El Paso. I called them and set an appointment for them to come and assess what I wanted. Now, I have to say that I thought I had some pretty good ideas, but after talking to Rob (the owner) he put mine to shame. The pool was finished two weeks later by another company, and work began on the landscaping. 4 days later I had the hard you see in the pictures. They installed a complete irrigation system, flagstone flower beds which they tailored to our want of a vegetable garden area, planted all of the trees you see, and enlarged the French Drain you see in the middle of the real Bermuda grass. It's absolutely beautiful, and their prices were lower than any other company we got an estimate from. Without a doubt, I can wholeheartedly recommend BC PRO Landscaping."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

A perc test takes an average of around two hours, but it can range from one hour up to around six hours. Perc tests that require wider or deeper holes and those that require multiple holes dug throughout your property will take longer because there’s more excavation involved. The actual filling of the hole and monitoring to gauge the rate of percolation should take under an hour per hole.

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.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

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).
