"Jared was who we mainly spoke with, his response time was great and was a pleasure to work with. Justin and Korbin are the two who came and cleared our lot. They were very professional and got the job done fast. I will definitely use them again for future work!"

"This was the easiest process. They checked what we wanted, made sure everyone working on it understood and the price they quoted came in under the original once they got into it. Will definitely be hiring these guys again for my next project!"

"I called several companies and it either went to voicemail, or they never answered. I called Apex and Phil answered the phone. I told him I had a huge pile of brush that needed to be removed. He came out right away and gave me an estimate. He told me he could possibly work it in in the next week or so. Turned out, he came the next day and removed the brush. His assistant was on the ground raking up the pieces that the grapple left behind. The service was excellent, Phil is very personable, and the price was very reasonable."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.
