"I was very pleased with the overall experience of having these guys do some work for me! The owner, Chaston Horelka, was the first to call me within an hour after I showed interest for a landscaper online. Very pleasant and knowledgeable and he and his workers did everything I asked to have done - weed and clean up multiple flower beds (badly needed!), cut out a small tree, weed, put black paper and mulch down in rosebed, dug holes and planted a couple of plants still in pots, etc. Sure wish I had before pictures to show the comparison when these guys finished making everything look fabulous! The clean up was more than I expected. Hauled off all the debris, edges along flowerbeds nice and clean, sidewalk and patio hosed off (no extra dirt) and they even cleaned and filled up my bird bath! I would highly recommend Gulf Coast Landscaping for anyone in need of their services. Reasonably priced, efficient and excellent attention to detail! Wonderful experience!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

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. 

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. 

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.
