Your trusted North Texas partners for all your dirt work and forestry mulching needs. Veteran/Firefighter Owned and Operated

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Nogaj Land Company for forestry mulching, and I could not be more impressed with their professionalism and the quality of their work. The mulching process was completed efficiently transforming our overgrown property into a clean, manageable space. They took the time to assess the area thoroughly and made thoughtful recommendations on how to best approach the project. They exceeded my expectations in every way, delivering the work on time and within budget. I’ll definitely be calling them again for any future land clearing projects!"

"Outstanding Service and Incredible Workmanship! I can't say enough good things about H&M Services! Hector and his crew went above and beyond to help me after a storm left my livestock without a fence. While other companies ignored my calls or acted like my situation wasn’t important, Hector made me feel heard and valued from the very start. Even with their packed schedule, they worked me in and got the job done quickly, saving my animals’ freedom and my peace of mind. The team arrived early, worked tirelessly without taking breaks, and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Their dedication, professionalism, and hard work were truly impressive. Every single person was polite, respectful, and focused on getting the job done right. Hector took the time to answer all my questions, big or small, and made sure I was completely satisfied. If you're looking for a fence company that genuinely cares about their customers and delivers top-quality work, look no further. Highly recommended!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.
