"Eric and his crew are knowledgeable, prompt, courteous, reliable, and hard-working. Eric listened to my requests, offered helpful guidance, and did a great job. He excavated a trench through a difficult, rocky area; installed electrical conduit; and removed a section of concrete pad for a renovation project. Highly recommend!"

Small jobs welcome

I have been working in the tree business for a little over 3 years..been climbing for 2. I worked under a 25+ year climber for most of that time and I have done everything from hazardous tree removal, storm damage, preventative tree maintenance, to simple prune, shape, and thins. I’ve done many beautiful landscape design/installs, stone walls, patios and walkways as well. I reside in Swanton Vermont and have been working around the Franklin, Chittenden, Addison county area, but will make the drive just about anywhere depending on the severity of your need's. I am fully insured don’t hesitate to call, text pictures of your trees/landscaping needs or leave me a message I’m happy to help. I assure you an honest and fair quote, and safe, quality rope work!

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

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

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.

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