"Josh did an awesome job, literally carving out tons of solid rock on a steep hillside, enough so that I could build a barn and pen for my horses, and then hauled in tons of road base, man sand and top sand. We never dreamed what a monumental task it was going to be until we were too far into it to turn back. But he came through for us! Thanks Josh!"

"Went well! I will hire them again. After they pulled the damaged plants out, they advised me on new plants that would work best. Their choices were better than the plants that went in the first time. They also patched up my lawn with new sod as needed and did some masonry work around my fire pit and added rocks instead of mulch. They were able to squeeze me in with another job in my area. I was grateful for that because Spring was coming and everyone was extremely busy. These guys practically work around the job to all the work done as promised."

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.

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.

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.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.
