"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!"

"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

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

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.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain.
