"I have worked with trackwest fencing on several occasions. They've always sent trustworthy people who can communicate well and produce a really good product. I've done a lot of fencing work in the past but they've always come up with new techniques that I learned from. I plan on working with this company on many occasions in the future."

Customers say: Quality work

"Matt did such a great job of tearing down and removing my dilapidated garage - he handled everything from getting the permit, arranging for asbestos testing, getting the electrical located and delivery of the dumpsters. He was careful to not damage any existing fences, and when he left, the area had been raked clean and there wasn’t a trace of the old building left behind. I would absolutely hire him again. Very professional, easy to work with, and kind."

"Cole did an exceptional job on the small excavation project. The bid was reasonable.He had some great ideas on how to enhance the look of the excavation project in term of landscaping. He was professional. He completed the job in a timely manner. The area around the excavation was always cleaned up at the end of any day he worked. He was quick with the work; if I requested minor additions or modifications, he responded positively and quickly changed some things. He’s a perfectionist and takes pride in his work. Very courteous and hard-working professional. I recommend him highly."

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.

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.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

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.
