"Hurricane Sally put a huge oak tree through my motherâ s house. She just found out her cancer had returned and now she had to be displaced from her home. Finding a contractor was a challenge. Everyone had damage and was busy. 4 months after the hurricane we found Ronnie Ridlon. He was not only willing to take on this complex project, he was honest, thorough and I knew he was trust worthy. Itâ s just something you feel when you meet Ronnie. Ronnie took on rebuilding my momâ s house and did not disappoint. The best part about this experience was his communication and his knowledge. He took all of our stress off of our plate and 3 months later my mom got to move back in her house. Itâ s hard finding a good contractor you can trust to do something from start to finishâ ¦ Ronnie Ridlon and his team is just that. Highly recommend and we are so thankful he came into our lives. Heâ s one of the best in Fairhope (also from Fairhope)"

"WildGray went above and beyond with removing my old sod and laying down new sod, yard was eroded from Sally and we put the pressure on them to get it done. Looks so good and we are really happy. All the neighbors coming by to take a look. Would recommend to anybody. Very down to earth and professional."

"I requested Robert look at what i wanted - steps on either side of my back deck to go down my sloped yard. Next thing I know we are at the Big Box store getting the needed materials…. He’s a git-R-done kind of guy. Next thing I know my problem area is more accessable. Granted, mine was a very small project, but he stayed on the project until it was a done deal. I recommend you give him an opportunity to help you on your next project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.
