"The Litaker family and their workers did an awesome job on our newly purchased home in Searcy. We knew it needed a lot of work, especially outside. I dreaded the process of hiring contractors to do the renovation because of all the bad things I hear about contractors not showing up, doing shotty work, lack of communication, etc. After getting quotes from them and meeting them, we decided to use them over others we'd interviewed. They were the whole package and could do anything/everything so we didn't have to deal with multiple contractors to achieve our end goal. Their supply quotes (for new windows, paint, roofing shingles, etc) turned out to be very accurate and they stuck by their labor quotes as well. They installed all new windows, replaced rotten batten boards, painted the entire outside, installed new posts on a wrap around porch, waterproofed a balcony on the 2nd floor and added railing for safety, and installed a new roof on the 1.5 story home. They worked! They didn't hang around shooting the breeze! Rarely ever took any kind of break even for lunch. They actually showed up every day they were scheduled and were very easy to communicate with via telephone and text. The also offered advice on how to save money on our ideas which changed a few of our plans for the better. This was about a 3-4 week project to finalize. We have a few inside projects in the future and we will certainly hire them to come back when we are ready. Lastly, we really enjoyed their personalities. The crew was very personable =)"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

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.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.
