"Our yard needed grading , sod , and fence repair , and we are so glad we choose Atlas Tree to do the work. Henry came out and went over what was needed, then in a few days the crew came in and created the perfect yard and design where we can entertain and just relax. They even helped with updating the sprinkler system , replacing and repairing our wood fence , and were great at correcting issues with standing water. Customer service was excellent handling my questions and concerns also. Thank you for a job well done !"

"I have known Mr. Salzar for almost 10 years and he has done many projects for me. As usual, his professionalism and quality of work far exceeded my expectations. He just completed a structural retaining wall of concrete block. The wall looks amazing and is built to last forever."

"Excellent Painting Work and Professional Service!” JMST Home Services did an amazing job painting my new home at Lyndale Drive in Atlanta. From start to finish, the team was on time, respectful, and detail-oriented. The prep work was thorough, and the finished result looks flawless — smooth walls, clean lines, and high-quality paint throughout. They transformed the space and exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be using JMST again for future projects and highly recommend them to anyone looking for professional, dependable workmanship."

"Raymond, Jamie and Mitch brought in a horizontal drilling team and replaced the blown out galvanized main water feed from the street meter to the house in 8 hours. 80' of new poly 1" water line all the way into the basement with zero impact to our landscape (see photo). Kudos to the drilling team who tunneled under an old dogwood tree, under a concrete sidewalk and dropped the line right on the mark at the exact depth. If you want the best, call GForce."

FAQs for excavation projects in Sandy Plains, GA

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.
