"I had Tristan come out to do some mulching around my newly planted trees and bushes and it turned out so good! He was in and out in a very timely manner and did very good work! He had even spent some extra time discussing some ideas for some other projects id like to get done. Very happy with the results and will definitely have them out again!!"

"I had to have my carpet removed from my apartment. She did the work I asked her to. She removed the rug, put the furniture back, took the rug out to the dumpster, and cleaned up everything. I was very impressed with her work. It looked so much better after she had it done."

"My rock border was full of dirt and weeds. The guys took out the stones, cleaned them off on the driveway, put down new weed guard, then replaced the stones and added more to fill in. It looks like new! They also sawed down a couple of stumps and worked around my existing plants. Pleased with how it turned out!"

"We called Phil originally to redo our lawn after having some trees taken down & some trenching done. After Phil came to our home for an estimate on the lawn after hearing we were getting 2 puppies & also needed a chain link fence we had an urgency.Phil gave us a fair estimate he was on time and finished on time. Phil & crew did an excellent job and was very respectful to our property. I would highly recommend EBK Equipment for any lawn & fencing needs. 5/5 stars"

"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."

"Worked with Matt and Dan. These young guys are not afraid to work and put in hours to get a job done. I was extremely impressed! They are very responsive and they did amazing work! I couldn’t be more thankful for the grading that was done. It was truly a pleasure working with these guys! I will recommend them to anyone looking to do excavating or grading of any kind. Thanks again! (Pictures below is a small amount of what was done)"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.
