"Mr. Thrasher and his crew were on time and kept me informed as to what was needed. I needed additional work. They installed a retaining wall and added drainage pipes for runoff. Removed and replaced another retaining wall with very attractive retaining blocks. As they back out of the back yard, they created a walkway and installed sod and mulch. Those guys did an awesome job!"

"Salazar replaced two separate retaining walls at my residence, demolishing and removing old/inadequate brick walls and replacing with proper full size blocks and capstones. In addition, they added a small concrete pad adjoining my Ssltillo patio and installed matching tile. Their work is very high quality and exhibits superb craftsmanship and care. I highly recommend them !"

"I submitted my project for a kitchen faucet/soap dispenser/garbage disposal/Instahot filtration system through Angi and received a response within minutes. I submitted it after 5pm and they had Zach at our home by 8am the next morning. He executed the install immediately and went above and beyond by cleaning my garbage disposal and plumbing lines before re-installing. I was very happy with Zach's professionalism and timeliness, as well as the finished product."

"I had a great experience working with LASH Landscape, especially with Landon. The team was very professional and clearly worked hard to get everything done right. Landon was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, attentive to my requests, and genuinely cared about making sure the work matched what I had in mind. As someone new to the area, finding a contractor I could trust felt a bit daunting, but Landon really delivered. He was reliable, supportive, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. On top of that, the pricing was reasonable for the quality of the work. I would absolutely recommend Landon and the LASH Landscape team without hesitation. I’m very grateful for their help and the difference they made. Thank you, team!"

FAQs for excavation projects in Union City, 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.
