"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

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

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.
