Customers say: Quality work

"We had Pelican Rock Company install a border edging using block pavers we also had edging installed in a plant bed across the front of the house. We are extremely happy with the quality of the work. The installers were professional and clean. The work is sharp and looks fantastic. They made sure curves were installed properly and lines were straight. Great job. I highly recommend you give them a call for your next project."

"Raul is an honest and conscientious professional. I initially hired him to remove weeds from an island garden bed at my home and replace with small shrubs and flower plantings and mulch. Fairly straightforward and simple. That work was done well and then we discovered heavy saturation of my yard due to a poorly designed and managed pool overflow pipe that had been buried under several inches of sand and mulch. Obviously not serviced by my pool maintenance company. This second project was beyond what he or I expected. Raul addressed it and mitigated the damage by digging trenches and installing a French drain to carry the water away from my homeâ s foundation. This was all unexpected, but he handled it like a professional and was committed to seeing the project through. The problem seems to be rectified now. As we are still in rainy season, we are watching to ensure the drain holds up as expected. Though Iâ m not sure if landscaping is Raulâ s companyâ s main line of business, he was extremely knowledgeable and tireless in his efforts to rectify the problem. And thatâ s what impressed me most. He did not stop until the problem was cured and stayed in touch with me daily on the progress."

FAQs for excavation projects in Chokoloskee, FL

Depth depends on the type of installation and the regulations in your area. Water supply lines typically require 24 inches, while drainage pipes are often installed 36 inches below grade. For most general projects, a depth of 12 to 24 inches and a width of about eight inches is sufficient. Sticking to these specs keeps your utilities safe, code-compliant, and easier to maintain later.

When you need to run utilities underground, you’ve got two main options: boring or trenching. Boring employs directional drilling to install utilities without exposing a continuous channel, while trenching requires excavating an open channel to place utilities securely. Directional drilling preserves landscape integrity, whereas trenching provides direct access for installation, albeit with greater surface disruption. This clear comparison helps you select the method best suited to your project.

Plan on 12 hours to dig 100 linear feet when the soil is cooperative and you can work continuously. This timeframe applies when work is performed consistently and methodically. Factors such as rocky soil, tree roots, obstructions, and frozen ground increase the overall duration, demanding extra planning and effort. Comprehensive operational planning ensures that every challenge is managed efficiently and the project is completed on schedule.

If you want your yard to look untouched, laying fresh sod over the trench is the quickest fix. New sod needs 30 to 45 days to root and blend with the rest of your lawn. A local sod pro can provide you with a firm timeline and tips to ensure the grass takes hold and maintains your curb appeal.
