"After leaving multiple messages and getting no return calls from the other guys, I contacted Masterwork Construction and was connected with Rob. This guy will do anything for you, from excellent explanations, to professional referrals, to amazing recommendations this guy has the information for you, and if he doesn't he will find it for you fast. My wife and I bought raw land and started the project of building our dream home. Rob is incredible when it comes to explaining why and how his company will get your projects done. My wife and I wanted to put in some sweat equity to save some money initially, and he was happy to tell us what exactly to do! If you are in need to earth moving work look no further. Give Rob a call and you will have zero issues getting what you need done, quickly, and at a good price."

"I had 4 overgrown shrubs removed and 4 shrubs trimmed and am very happy with the work provided. You wouldn't even know there were 4 shrubs there, the clean up was very professional. I'm hiring GV to come back next week to remove an old dead pine tree. Emmanuel stayed in communication with me, which was very helpful."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work Gus did on my yard! He removed old plants, regraded the landscape, planted new shrubs, and spread fresh mulch, completely transforming the space. What impressed me most was his incredible work ethic. He put in long hours, paid attention to every detail, and took great pride in making sure everything looked perfect. The finished project exceeded my expectations, and my yard has never looked better. It’s clear that Gus genuinely cares about doing quality work and making his customers happy. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for landscaping, plant removal, grading, or mulch installation. Thank you, Gus, for your hard work and dedication!"

"Colton installed a 10x12 gravel base pad for a shed we bought. He did an excellent job! His bid was very competitive with other landscapers in the area and the quality of work was on point. He was on time, respectful, and made sure we were happy with the job prior to him completing the job. I would definitely recommend him!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
