"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."

"I don't know that my project would have ever moved forward without Pricila's help from Citrine Landscape. I had been very slowly moving some old gravel from around a large tree to prepare for a new flower bed. After working on this myself for over a year, I finally broke down and called in reinforcements. Pricila arrived early Monday morning as we planned and by lunchtime the job was done. I'm beyond happy not only to have it done but also with how thorough and careful she was. We're already in the planning phases of getting my new flower bed installed. If you find yourself in need of any landscape work done, I wholeheartedly suggest you give Pricila a call.Â"

"The contractor arrived at my home on time but once I explained that the tuck pointing I needed done was on the top of my chimney, he explained that they did not do work that high off the ground due to Workers Comp Insurance. I thanked the gentleman for coming out and we parted company."

"Liquid Foundation Repairs installed a French Drain in my backyard a few months ago. I waited with my review to make sure that it woks. Had lots of rain since then and it works like a champ! Troy is very respectful, reliable and knowledgeable. Both him and his crew are punctual and hard working. The wok couldn’t be started right away due to lots of water and mud. Meantime, Troy called me several times so that we can agree on the proper time to start the job. They had a hard time because the entire work area was still a mess. They worked hard for several days and did an awesome job! I had a big tree trunk that fell over from the golf course next to my backyard and flattened my fence. They disposed of it and fixed the fence without charging a dime! They specialize in multiple jobs, so hire them with confidence! You won’t be disappointed!"

"Joe came to our house and did some excavating due to a build up of trees, rock and stumps. Before this work was done; We could not tell how big our backyard was. After the work was done; We could see the entire 1/2 acre backyard. Our grandkids love it!!!!! You will not be disappointed."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.
