"I hired them to excavate rock, dirt, and an old playground from my backyard. Relevel my yard. Design and intstall a drainage system that would work for my needs and install sod. They were very professional. They began the work on time and completed the project in a timely manner. They even removed dead leaves around my front porch to make my house look nice and I never imagined my backyard could look so nice. Juan was so patient with me and answered all my questions. He was honest, reassuring and upfront with the whole project. He always checked in with me during the project. If I called him with questions he would either answer the phone or get back with me within 5 minutes. The price for the project was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend this company and I look forward to hiring them in the spring to trim my trees."

"Mark and his crew were great! We removed an old deck and spa from our backyard. They demolished the wood, concrete and fiberglass as well as hauling off and cleaning up behind themselves. You would have never known any demo work had happened if you weren’t there watching. Highly recommend!"

"Mr. Bobby Truett did a superb job of clearing brush, removing tree stumps, and trimming tree limbs that posed a serious danger of damaging fencing on my property. He was extremely attentive to my needs as a custimer, communicated with me very well, and paid great attention to detail. He even worked on weekends to ensure my schedule was met! I would highly recommend Bobby for any job that requires a skid steer!"

"They did great work. My bridge was impassable due recent flooding/ erosion. We were stranded at home. Unable to get out/across. Jose-Hernandez Brothers said it would be the following Tuesday (five days later) until he could do the job (this meant we would miss attending our Grandson's Graduation Party). However, due situation, they took time off to come out and make the repairs that Saturday. I would highly recommend Hernandez Brothers Tractor Work & Dump Truck Service not just for their great work, but character."

"Great Tech, he was quick and solved the problem. I only wish they had some kind of Senior Discount, the hourly rate was kinda high and my husband could have done it, but after 2 heart attacks and 2 stints, I did not want to take a chance on him hurting himself. Otherwise, they were all great people."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
