Frequently Asked Questions

How can excavation services help with my lawn's insect damage in Polo?

Insect damage, often from grubs, frequently follows moisture issues. Our excavation service allows us to properly regrade your property to improve drainage, eliminating the damp soil that pests thrive in. We can also trench to access and repair any compromised underground sprinkler lines that may be creating soggy areas, tackling the root cause of the infestation to help your lawn recover and stay healthy.

My landscape edging is always getting damaged or pushed out of place. Can trench digging fix this?

Absolutely. In our Polo climate, frost heave and soil erosion are common culprits. Simply resetting the edging often leads to repeat problems. Our professional trench digging service allows us to install edging at the correct depth with a stable gravel base and proper backfill. This creates a solid foundation that resists shifting during freeze-thaw cycles, giving you a clean, durable edge that lasts for seasons.

We need trenching for a project, but I'm worried about damaging my existing lawn. How do you handle this?

We use precise, controlled excavation techniques to minimize disruption. For trenching projects, we carefully cut and set aside sod in manageable sections. Once the underground work is complete, we replace the sod, tamp it down, and grade the area to match your existing lawn. Our goal is to leave your property looking neat and ensure the repaired section blends seamlessly, promoting healthy regrowth without leaving a messy scar.
