"Francisco and Flaco did an absolutely amazing job preparing our yard for our deck. They graded the area and removed all the overburden, moved our sprinkler valves, dug the holes for and poured footings for three support posts, and then poured a concrete slab for storage as well as the rest of the footings for the deck. They were prompt, kept their work area clean, communicated well, and were willing to work with the fact that I recently had knee surgery and had dogs that needed to use the yard periodically during the day. They also did a fantastic job of cleaning up the yard and power washing the driveway when they were all through. I would highly, highly recommend Knockout Landscaping for any job that you have upcoming. Pricing was very reasonable and they went the extra mile to make sure everything was just as we wanted."

"Always came as promised weather permitting. Worked hard and performed work efficiently and carefully and did beautiful work. They removed grass and re-graded a negative slope into a positive slope, installed brick patio, rerouted sprinkler lines and extended rain gutter drain pipes away from the house."

"Matt made it easy to get our landscaping overhaul. He got back to us quickly to provide a quote, recommended low- maintenance plants, removed all of the old mulch and dead plants, dug up stumps, trimmed trees and plants, replaced drip hoses, placed filter fabric, and spread mulch. He and his team did a great job. No issues, good communication, and trustworthy."

"My family has been in the general contracting business for 70 years. I understand the goal of any good contractor is to exceed the expectations of those he serves. My experience with Preston was exemplary of that goal. I would recommend his service to anyone looking for a quality excavator or landscaper, honest, fair, reliable, and timely service."

"We recently hired JH Concrete to pour a patio in our backyard, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial estimate to the final cleanup, their team was professional, punctual, and easy to work with. They took the time to properly prepare the area, paid attention to every detail, and delivered a high-quality finished product that exceeded our expectations. The patio looks fantastic and has completely transformed our outdoor space into an area our family can enjoy for years to come. The crew worked hard, communicated well throughout the project, and kept the job site clean and organized. If you're looking for a reliable concrete contractor who takes pride in their work and delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend JH Concrete. Their craftsmanship, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction truly set them apart."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.
