Don't let your valuable landscaped inland or waterfront property deteriorate. The first impression of your property is the landscaping. The value of your property is very important and professional landscaping increases property value and protects your property from environmental hazards. If you are a homeowner, commercial business, municipal, or industrial site, or on the water or inland, utilize landscape design techniques to maximize your property for identification purposes, for erosion control, screening, safety and security, pedestrian control, or beautification and recreation. All are reasons to landscape your property or business. Using environmentally friendly designs and materials, landscaping can compliment your property. Waterfront property has justification for landscaping and construction. Seawalls prevent erosion, and give usable space to waterfront areas, plant material can combat erosion problems, and rip rap can slow down wave action to protect your shoreline. Piers, docks, boathouses are used for recreational reasons and can add value to any waterfront property. Southern Landscaping and Construction Inc has 28 years of experience in Landscape Design and Marine Construction to protect and add value to your property. Give us a call for an estimate.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Using a drill to bore holes in the stump's center speeds up the process, whatever method you use. If you don’t have a drill, you can still chainsaw or chisel the stump to make it hollow; it will just take more elbow grease and time. Steer clear of burning the stump to hollow it if you can’t drill some holes in it first. Otherwise, getting it to light, stay lit, and burn right through will be a challenge.

The cost to dig a trench ranges from $400 to $1,200 per 100 linear feet, depending on the soil, depth, and width. Plan to spend $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching (it’ll be on the higher end if you have rocky soil). Renting a trencher costs $100 to $250 per hour, depending on the type of trencher. 

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.
