"I had a 12 foot by 25 foot section in my backyard underneath the carport dug out about 15 in down and it was replaced with big rock to give it better foundation because I was having erosion problems. Tim Walter was the perfect guy for the job and did an outstanding job and even did it under estimate all in one day and put top shelf and highly recommend for any landscape issue. John Erway."

"I was Tim's first job when he moved his business to South West Mo. After having such a bad experience with local previous concrete business I was pleasantly surprised the knowledge, professionalism and desire to make his customers pleased and happy with his work. I would highly recommend PBM concrete. Also if a problem occurs with his work he is right on job to correct the problem. Yes I highly recommend."

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.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.
