"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."

"The hardwood floors in our property were really in bad shape after been rented for several years and I didn’t think anyone could fixed the damage. When Chris Geoff came to give us the estimate, he was so confident that he could bring back the beauty of our floors that I think, it was the main factor to choose them for the job. I have never been so happy with a contractor in my life, the job that Chris did was AMAZINGLY beautiful. He was 100% right, my floors are so smooth and beautiful that you can appreciate the grain of the wood. Before sanding the floors, Francisco (Paco) Del Angel removed all the baseboards and replaced them with new ones after Chris finished with the floors, and he also did an amazing job. They both treated our place with care and cleaned everything before leaving. I recommend these contractors 100% and thank them for an outstanding job."

"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."

"We had them remove a large amount of dirt and weeds from our side yard, and then add some mulch and gravel. They did a wonderful job and were very fairly priced compared to other quotes. I have referred them to others and definitely will be using them again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

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. 

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.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.
