"We hired red Cedar lining lot clearing to clear about 2 1/2 acres of heavy brush, and to mulch several 8"-14" trees. It was surprisingly hard to find a company that specializes in brush, clearing and tree mulching. They showed up on time and did a fantastic job. I would hire them again for sure."

"Zak and Jason did a fabulous job on my backyard fence. They came up with ideas for the fence placement that I would never have thought of. So easy to work with and very conscientious. I would absolutely hire them again!"

"Lukas showed up and went right to work. Worked hard the whole time he was here. Very knowledgeable and competent. He helped me with my shed conversion to an office. He put up insulation and interior wall panels. Great guy. Planning on some more uodates to the building as i was a little short on materials for him to finish. Hoping he will be able to come back this weekend to finish the walls in the shed, do some handrails caps on my deck, and do some remodel work on my gazebo floor. You can't go wrong hiring him to do a job."

"Customer service was top notch- we started with a 4 acre wooded lot and we had started clearing it ourselves and had many stumps and some more trees to take down. They gave an estimate via photos and email since job site was over an hour away which worked great. Worked til job was finished and did so in a timely manner. We also added clearing a new driveway after the fact and did amazing job. Great communication - would definitely hire again and give referral. Photos are Before and afters."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.
