"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

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.

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.
