"We hired Caleb to remove mulch and fabric and do some basic clean up. He was extremely polite when he came to give us an estimate, and was on time and completed the job quickly. He also freely offered advice on things we could do. We would definitely hire him again."

"God did Bless us with Quality Landscaping, Mr. Bryan & Logan they both are Professional. We set a date & time. I mentioned that I hv Medical appt.’s and they worked around my schedule. Logan did not rush the job he explained what he was going to do., and to make sure the job was done correctly he was to come the next morning. Picked up behind his work. The next morning his Father came to finish the job. Excellent Communication Amen. I/We strongly recommend Quality Landscaping. Let’s keep the Love and it’s a local loyal family company. Repaced 6 post & repair chain link fence. May Quality Landscaping continue to get Blessing. I/We Highly Recommend this Company. ( they do exactly what they say they will do)."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

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.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

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.
