Customers say: True professional

"I had an unusual excavation job, the excavation/clearing out of a wash that runs under my suspended living room.  I doubt it has ever been cleaned out since 1966 when the house was built.  The threat of El Nino rains this coming rainy season prompted the project.  The job was unusual because no machine could reasonably fit in the project area...it was largely hand work with Bobcat assisting and the project took longer than expected.  Jim was able to coordinate the job.  His own skills at the Bobcat were great, steering clear of all expensive landscaping.  He was exceptionally pleasant to work with and he takes pride in his work.  Prices were thoroughly reasonable.  I'd hire Blue Horizon again in a second.

"Jack the arborist was great! Came out to personally inspect and gave a good estimate. Was up front with our options to get done what we wanted to get done (the tree removal was large). The office customer service was also prompt and thorough. Project and cleanup was done swiftly and cleanly."

"The work was done over several days with some over a week apart. Paul White was helpful in making recommendations, and the end result was excellent.  Ceiling fans were replaced indoors and wired and hung on the outside patio where none had previously existed.  New ceiling lighting was added indoors and outdoors, and art lighting was adjusted or moved to focus on new pieces.  The crew was skilled and professional.  Paul White was present and involved in most all of the work that was completed, not just his crew.

"I don't remember exactly the cost, which is why i didn't list it. But their prices are competitive, even if they aren't the cheapest. I have worked with Neal, Brett and one other crew member... each has been wonderfully professional -- even putting on little blue shoe covers before coming into my home. They are polite and honest. They were able to replace our water heater quickly and without a lot of worry on our part. I refer people to them often and they will always be the first ones I call for any plumbing issues."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

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.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
