"I needed 4 oak trees pruned and heavily thinned, plus an old pine removed. Oscar gave me a fair quote and a reasonable service date. He showed up right on time, and completed the work and clean up in about seven hours. He delivered on everything he promised and I am quite pleased. I will not hesitate to recommend him to friends and neighbors."

"I used Custom Scapes for repairing my leaking sprinkler system and tree trimming services. Hermes came out and inspected the leak and he went further and made sure the whole system was in good shape to ensure my system had good water pressure. During his diagnosis, he discovered I had another leak on the other side of my lawn which he was able to quickly repair. His crew was able to take care of my trees and they look great. His quote was very accurate and he is a very friendly person to deal with."

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.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
