"13 Moons Grading team took our property by clearing out stumps and dead scrap trees left from clearing of the pines on the property. Then they enlarged an existing pond giving us a future great bass pond with several depth changes for staging bass. From the excavated soil from the pond they reshaping our land for proper drainage and prepared an area of a future home site. Fixed our entrance road smoothing it out. They meet all of our expectations and beyond and we will use them again and we highly recommend them for you projects."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

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.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.
