Q: Does fire blight stay in the soil?

• <div><p>No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts. </p></div>

Q: How deep do you dig for plastic edging?

• <div><p>You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it&mdash;2 inches is usually sufficient. </p></div>

Q: How do you cut through roots when digging?

• <div><p>There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How deep are trenches?

• <div><p>Trenches are typically <b>12 inches to</b> <b>24 inches deep and 8 inches wide</b>. However, your city or county may have specific ordinances that clarify the dimensions needed for the project. For instance, a water pipe may need to be 24 inches deep, but a drainage pipe may need to be 36 inches deep.</p></div>

Brad was very easy to work with. His prices are very competitive and his customer service is excellent. Even though I contacted him late in the season, he was able to get the job completed. He and his crew completed the connection of the sump pump discharge to a newly installed municipal...

I can't say enough good things about our project with Green Future Construction. We had developed a bad water leak along one wall of our basement which we diagnosed as coming from a depression and water channels caused by a decayed tree stump under our ground level deck. Rather than deal with...

Kirch's price was incredibly competitive with other bids. He thoroughly explained some additional options he could provide and was very easy to work with. The extra considerations he gave were ones that the other excavators didn't mention, like building up the low parts of the land with the...

We hired this company because the came in with the low bid among several highly regarded landscape companies that we interviewed. In retrospect, we really regret this decision. First, the small stuff. After they seeded the lawn, wind blew much of the seeds into the mulch beds where the grass...

I had never even heard of Egnoski Excavating. He was brought in as a sub contractor by my concrete company. They had nothing but praise for him reassuring me that I was in good hands. It wasn't long after watching the progress I could tell this guy was not your average excavator, he should be...
