"We recently completed a major exterior renovation with Mike, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience or the final result. From day one, Mike made the entire process smooth, organized, and surprisingly stress‑free. He kept us updated at every stage, answered questions before we even had to ask, and handled every detail with total professionalism. Every subcontractor he brought in was skilled, respectful, and conscientious. Our property was kept clean and livable throughout, even while tackling big projects like a new roof, stucco work, window wells, and a full garage and workshop addition. It was clear that Mike holds his team to a high standard. The finished product is beautiful, and the craftsmanship shows in every corner. We’re grateful for how easy Mike made such a large renovation feel. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a contractor who is reliable, communicative, and genuinely committed to quality."

"I had a row of hedges that needed to be removed to add extra parking space at my home. Randy ripped out all the hedges, an old basketball pole buried in 6 feet of concrete, and prepped it for a driveway. He brought in countless loads of gravel and compacted it all. It’s been a great addition to our home and really opened up the yard. We’ve done a few other small projects and they’ve all turned out awesome!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

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.
