"We hired Chris to reactivate our irrigation system. We live on 2.5 acres so needless to say, we have a large system. We recently went through some renovation and some of the wires to our system were cut. He came out and reverse, engineered everything, and got all the wires up and running. He never gave up on the project and work day and night, literally, and even came out in the rain sometimes to work through the issues. I could not recommend him enough. He’s extremely honest and very hard-working. You will definitely be in great hands with him."

"Chris M. Is the best contractor I have ever hired and with whom I have had the privilege of working. He is extremely professional, polite, efficient, and honest. He came and removed all the junk and then some. I have already recommended him to several of my friends. I will definitely hire him again when the need arises. Thank you Chris for making such an overwhelming task manageable and bearable, maybe even pleasant. I look forward to working with you in the future. Oh and the price was so reasonable, better than I ever expected. Great job!"

"Phil did a great job! Easy to work with. This is the second time we have used Cut It Out and the completed job was just as we requested. They cleaned out 8 acres of rock and downed trees, shredded, and moved and leveled dirt. We highly recommend Phil and Out It Out for any land management project you might have."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.
