"Although he arrived later than planned, he did phone ahead of time to let me know that he would be late and gave me an estimated time of arrival. I appreciate that. He was very professional and knowledgeable. He pointed out a tree that is being attacked by beetles and dropping dead limbs, but he also knew that the sycamores were healthy and dropped limbs naturally to self-prune. I need to get 3 estimates before selecting who will do the work, so I do not know yet if we will use Cornerstone. But just from my interaction with Mr. Miller, I would be happy to employ this tree service."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.
