"My house came a non-functioning water feature in the backyard, installed by the previous owner. Over the years, I had always intended to remove it but kept putting it off and mowing around it. Fast forward to now and I am getting ready to sell the house, thinking I should finally get rid of that overgrown eyesore. Within minutes of submitting my project to Angi, Oasis Lawncare gave me a call. The next evening I had a very reasonably priced quote in hand for removing the water feature, plus additional curb appeal work. Four days before the work was scheduled to begin, we got two feet of snow -- one last mid-March storm to close out the winter. I thought for sure Oasis would request to delay, but nope: They came out on the scheduled day, worked through any remaining snow, and did a fantastic job. The job was completed on time and at the quoted price. So grateful to Oasis Lawncare's amazing crew. I would 100% hire them for any future landscaping projects."

"Mike consistently does a great job maintaining our business lawn and property exterior. He has planted and continued to maintain countless trees for us on the property as well. We have a lot of equipment around our building and he is always very careful around our machines and our buildings. Any time we have an exterior project, Mike is the only one we call. 5 STARS every time!"

"contacted T&K Builders after discovering mold in my exterior wall, and their response was immediate and professional. The team quickly demolished the affected area and installed the necessary structural supports to safely hold the roof. Everyone on site worked efficiently, communicated clearly, and maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the process. They kept the site clean, protected materials from the elements, and were extremely organized—especially important since we received over four inches of snow the following day. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. Their attention to detail, workmanship, and respect for the property truly set them apart. I would absolutely recommend T&K Builders for any future projects and would not hesitate to call them again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.
