Safety and Excavating
So you have some yard you have plans for. However nature or divine intervention, didn’t know of your ambitions and the land is what can be best described as typical east coast. There are rocks, trees, brush, and the ground’s uneven. Let’s be honest about this, the average family isn’t going to have the tools necessary to remove rocks and tree stumps. The biggest issue is safety though. The good news is in places like the Annapolis, MD area there are options for excavating to be done safely and effectively by professionals.
Safety is a bigger issue than you probably realize, if you have a chain saw you might think you can deal with the trees at least right? Well, unless you really know what you’re doing you’re going to face some safety issues. The first of which is, knowing how to use a chain saw properly. Most people who have chain saws only ever use them on branches or trees no more than four inches in diameter. Whereas when dealing with a large tree you can run into simple issues that will confound. One such issue is the weight of the tree pushing down on the chain of the saw causing it to catch and jam.
Then there’s the elephant in the room. What do you do, even if you know how to cut through the trees properly, there’s the issue of what you do when the tree when it falls. You need to have a controlled fall, and if the tree is too big, it’s not just an issue of cutting it down at the base and having some chain to guide the fall. Let’s say though you even know what you’re doing when it comes to clearing the trees out. What do you do with the stumps?
The sheer amount of labor, questions, and safety issues involved in excavating a yard is staggering, and requires real examination by a homeowner. You have to have a realistic appraisal of what you can and can’t do safely. You also have to admit unless you have a flat yard with only some stones small enough to carry you will end up calling in a professional excavating company. If you live in a densely arboreal area like the area around Annapolis, MD you will have a messy, often hilly and rocky yard to clear. The real question is when to call in the professionals, not if. Your task is to know what you can do, and who you should call for the work you will need to get done.
