🌱 The finishing touches matter! 🌱

Ever wonder what happens after a sewer project is complete? It’s more than just filling in the trench and calling it a day!

Once the work is finished, we focus on getting the disturbed ground ready to grow again. That means preparing the soil, spreading grass seed, and adding straw to help protect the area while new grass gets established.

🌾 Why are grass seed and straw so important?

🌱 Grass seed: Helps establish new vegetation, restore the lawn, and stabilize the soil.

🍂 Straw: Provides a protective layer that helps hold moisture in the soil, reduces erosion from wind and rain, and helps keep the seed from washing away.

💧 Erosion control: Bare soil is vulnerable to Minnesota weather! Getting seed and straw down helps protect the finished area while the grass begins to grow.

⏳ Patience is key! A freshly seeded area won’t turn green overnight. Proper watering, favorable weather, and time all play a role in getting that new grass established.

“THE SCRATCH”

The scratch is the bottom of the mound area where we lightly break up and loosen the existing soil before adding the sand fill. This step is important because it helps create a better interface between the existing soil and the new mound material.

Why does it matter? 👇

💧 Water movement is key! Loosening the soil helps prepare the surface so wastewater can move into the underlying soil as the system is designed to do.

🌱 It’s all about proper preparation! Before we build up the mound, we need to prepare the ground underneath it. What happens below the surface is just as important as what you see above it!

There’s a lot more to a septic system than digging a hole and setting a tank. Proper installation starts from the ground up!

“Called Brandon to prep for a pole barn slab and grade the yard to get water to flow through better. Brandon went above and beyond and made the yard look better than it ever has. I will use Brandon on any upcoming projects I have again! 11/10 recommend Liggy’s!”

🌱 The job isn’t finished when the dirt is graded!

One of the final steps we take on many of our grading jobs is putting down grass seed and straw and there’s more to it than just making the finished product look nice.

So, why the straw? 👇

🌾 Helps protect the seed – Straw helps keep grass seed in place instead of allowing it to wash or blow away.

💧 Helps hold moisture – It provides a layer of protection that can help keep the soil and seed from drying out as quickly.

🌧️ Helps reduce erosion – Freshly graded soil can be vulnerable to rain. Straw helps slow down the impact of rain and can help prevent the seed and topsoil from washing away.

🌱 Creates a better environment for germination – By protecting the seed and helping maintain moisture, straw can give new grass a better chance to get established.

That’s why we believe the final touches matter. Proper grading, quality topsoil, grass seed and straw all work together to leave the property looking finished and give the new lawn a good start. 🌱

A little grading can make a BIG difference!

A few weeks ago, we finished up this quick grading job, and what a transformation! 👀

From a tree stump and uneven ground ➡️ to fresh topsoil and a smooth, flat transition around the home. 🌱

Now these homeowners will have a nice front and backyard for their dogs to run and play! 🐕🐾

It’s amazing what a little dirt work can do to make a property more functional and enjoyable.

Happy Wednesday!
We just wrapped up this septic project north of Knife Lake yesterday! Another job checked off the list, and we’re enjoying this cooler weather while it lasts. 🍂

The days are getting shorter, which means winter is coming… and it’ll be here before we know it!

We only have a few spots left for this fall! If you’re looking to get your septic project done before winter, now is the time to reach out. 📲

Not planning on doing anything until next year? No problem! Get ahead of the game and get on our 2027 spring schedule before those spots start filling up!

📞 Contact Liggy’s Excavating & Septic today to get on the schedule!

Thank you for keeping us busy and trusting us with your projects. We appreciate every one of you! ❤️

When you own a small business, holidays don’t always look like everyone else’s.

Sometimes it means working while everyone else is relaxing. Sometimes it means answering the phone, checking on a job, moving equipment, or squeezing in “just one more thing.”

And when it’s a family business? It’s truly ALL hands on deck. 👊🏼

Everyone pitches in. Everyone has a role. Everyone gets their hands dirty. And sometimes the line between “work” and “us time” gets pretty blurry.

But honestly… we wouldn’t trade it. ❤️

There’s something pretty special about building something together, working hard for what you have, and knowing that every long day is helping build a future.

So this Labor Day, we’re grateful for the work, the people who make it possible, and the opportunity to keep chasing the dream. 🇺🇸

Cheers to the hard workers, the small business owners, and the families who keep showing up…even on the holidays. 💪🏼

Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸
