"Frank was very easy to work with and informative. He was quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had about the work to be done. We had a lot of overgrown shrubs that needed to be removed and the yard regraded. Everything was completed in a timely manner and we would hire him again if needed."

"We hired Waterscapes when our initial contractor abandoned the project and took our money, and they did a great job.  They were very communicative and sent regular status updates to us which we appreciated since we lived out of state.  Additionally, they finished the project in 10 days which was really impressive considering that they had to basically start from scratch  They also had competitive prices and cost-effective solutions to problems that satisfied all of our neighbors' concerns."

"My husband and I bought an abandoned house (call it the secret garden ) on two acres three years ago that had hundreds unmaintained, fancy invasive plants and trees that were strangling and eating the house and each other. Since we moved in, three other landscaping companies from home advisor had checked it out but none sent a quote (I was told the job was too big, or that they didn t do removal-to call them back if you re considering adding plants or a patio .) Chris sent us a quote the same day he checked out the job and we hired him on the spot. He and his crew were so professional and they did an amazing job with tree and shrub and vine removal; they also topped off our driveway with fresh gravel and removed 5 years of leaves and detritus from around the house. It means so much to us- we can go outside and just enjoy our yard. We can see our house when we turn into the driveway! They did in two days what would have taken us 5 years or more. I didn t tell them this but I was feeling so discouraged based on those interactions with the other companies and I haven t had the same energy since I had some health issues a few years ago. It really meant so much to us that they did what they said they would and even went above and beyond, clearing dead stuff we didn t even know was there (couldn t see it under the live stuff). We will definitely hire them for our next project and would recommend that you do too!"

"We had an area in our yard where we had removed a tree and grass would not grow. We tried reseeding for several years, and they result was always the same... a big bare patch. Dustin came up a great plan...stones, pavers and some plants, but plenty of room for us to personalize it. BTW...far right of the photo is a drainage ditch that he had to work around....integrated it nicely into his work."

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Rochester, NH

You can excavate in winter, but frozen soil slows down the process and increases labor costs. Many grading companies offer discounted rates during their off-season, so ask for a winter quote and weigh the savings against a longer timeline. A brief conversation with a local professional will help determine whether cold-weather excavation is suitable for your site.

Foundation digs can be completed in as little as three days or take up to three weeks. Soil density, access, weather, and hidden obstacles all play a role, so every timeline is a bit different. Have your contractor walk the site and flag any potential issues early—clear expectations help keep both the schedule and budget on track.

You must always call 811 before excavating. Dial 811 a few days in advance so that utility crews can mark underground lines and ensure the area is safe for digging. Hitting a buried cable or gas pipe can be both dangerous and expensive, and many municipalities will not issue permits unless the site is flagged correctly.

To remove soil during an excavation project, your crew will load the spoil into dump trucks with a backhoe or excavator, haul it to a disposal site, and return for the next load. Efficient hauling keeps the work zone clear and the project moving. Depending on the site and volume of osil, multiple trucks may rotate to maintain a steady flow.
