"Very professional and efficient. Took down 2, 40ft tall diseased pine trees that posed imminent harm to my home. They cleaned up all debris and removed the trees in a timely manner. Throughout the process they let me know what they were doing and what and when they would complete the job. I would 💯 percent refer them for your project."

"South Henry Construction and Land Management did an absolutely outstanding job on our project! They laid asphalt millings for us and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done properly and with care. The quality of their work shows in every detail, the surface is smooth, well-graded, and looks fantastic. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to doing the job right really stood out. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend them to anyone needing construction or land management services. Truly a 5-star experience from start to finish!"

"Nathan and James were the absolute perfect people to work with. I wanted about an acre clear with trees to knock down, stumps filled in, roots managed, and logs cleared out. They kept all our appointments to talk about the project and gave me a firm date on when they would start and finish. They stuck to it and worked hard, totally exceeding my expectations. They were fair and reasonable with prices, if you need excavation or anything of the sort done you need to call these guys, I'm definitely going to get them to help me out for my next projects."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

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.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.
