"Day one had to loan technician tools to do job. Could not run temporary line as he had left it at another job. Was told emergency service would be applied to line replacement It was not. No show no call two days. When I called on friday to see what was up was told a manager would call back. He called but didnt know anything about me calling Friday. He was calling to collect for an uncompleted job. Debris were left at front door a pile of chipped cement where 90 year old blind woman has to pop out to get her newspaper. Then not once but two different times the same individual left the front porch chairs blocking the front door. Had she come out she could have fallen. They left her without water for 5 hours. Could not take her pills. Large Bush still tied up the way they left it. They went through all the trouble to run a solid ground wire from the street to house only to splice 2 ft away. To contact Mr Rooter Tucson you have to call Colorado. No local support. Says family owned but where is the family? Have photos to prove."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

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.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

It is a common belief that excavation is easier or less costly when done in the summer or when the ground is not frozen. Seasons have little effect on when excavation can occur; however, inclement weather can prolong the duration of the job and potentially increase costs. For this reason, those in rainy climates may opt for seasons with milder weather.
