"Douglas with Douglas Land and Landscaping installed a drainage line to the curb to stop the water ponding on the northside of the house. He also created a garden in my front yard and installed sod to the front yard and a sprinkler system. He also repaired the flagstone sidewalk to my front yard. All work was professionally completed. My wife and I love the work that was completed. Good prices. I strongly recommend Douglas Land and Landscaping Augustine and Karin Rodriguez Atascocita, Texas."

"New ground irrigation installed pavers lighting, covering, plants and stone bordering. Caesar and Mariano gave me a first class customer experience! Initially what separated them from the pack was their attention to detail and their willingness to win the job -we basically had minimal negotiations and were able cut to the chase and find that sweet spot between each of our bottom lines. As the job was being done Caesar and Mariano was on site each day and with a consistent fantastic crew. The work and the design was impeccable -I was more than pleased!! I had a contractor that was doing work on the inside of my house and they were even impressed with their process and the equipment/machinery they brought to the site to professionally compact, cut, execute etc. the job effectively and professionally. I will hire them again to design my backyard and for whatever else I need to keep my new Oasis beautiful."

"Scott and his crews are phenomenal. They put in a drain, cut trees and put in dirt and sod. They also put crushed rock between my garage and fence. Then they laid a small area by my gate to cover the area so it wouldnâ t be muddy. They did a fantastic job. Scott is extremely knowledgeable and really takes care of his clients. My yard has been transformed and looks great."

"We found Super Junk Houston on Home Advisor. I was able to get a quote on the phone within a few hours of reaching out and we were able get on their schedule for the next day. We got a call ahead to make sure we were ready. The crew was prompt on the time they said (thank you!), grabbed everything we needed hauled away, and even swept the garage where we had everything. Looked SO much better when they left. Thank you so much!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

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.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.
