"They did an amazing job! A sinkhole formed after a utility did some work near my driveway (along with other damage they caused on a separate occasion). Also, the driveway was less than 3 years old and was sinking near the garage due to poor installation by the builders of the house. RoadMax came out to give me a free estimate and explained everything very clearly. They even honored the quote even after 8 months of waiting for the utility to agree to pay for the damage. Their willingness to contact the utility company on my behalf really helped resolve the issue. The new driveway is perfect and looks great! The workers were very professional and did a great job. RoadMax will be my go-to paving company going forward. Highly recommend! I just wish I had some better before pictures to demonstrate the transformation."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
