"Alex Valentin and his team did an excellent job on my front yard. I appreciated that he or his office manager kept me informed of their preceding projects' progress and their estimated arrival time (the work was done in one session, the start of which was affected by rain events). All the plants he provided were healthy and the pre-agreed size. The black mulch was good quality wood, triple shredded. I recommend this company."

"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."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

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.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.
