Solly's Skidsteer | Excavation Services & Landscaping in McCammon, ID 83250

Often, shrubs die due to 'wet feet' from poor drainage or compacted soil that prevents healthy root growth. Our excavation services can correct the site's grading and install proper drainage trenches to move excess water away, or we can carefully dig out and amend the planting area to give your new shrubs the loose, well-drained soil they need to thrive.

Absolutely. Persistent soggy or dead patches are a classic sign of poor subsurface drainage common in our area. We dig precise trenches to install French drains or other drainage systems that channel water away from these problem spots. This allows the soil to dry out properly and gives grass roots the oxygen they need, solving the issue at its source.

Yes, starting with proper site preparation is key to long-term success. Simply replacing dead plants in the same spot often leads to the same result. Our excavation service allows us to remove old, compacted soil and roots, assess and fix the underlying grade for drainage, and prepare a fresh, optimal bed. This foundational step is the best way to ensure your new landscaping investment lasts.
