"The cutting and removal was done quickly and exactly the way we wanted it done. It was a tricky cut but it was done perfectly. I would hire them again because they were on time and made sure there were no surprises."

"Was very friendly and prompt but left a mess for us to clean up. My husband is not happy as felt he did not care about cleaning the area and where are dogs are buried some of the bricks all moved! Just was disappointed that a landscape company can be unkept!"

"Planted a tree and several shrubs/plants and spread additional rock + put in a watering system for the maintenance of the improvements. Had Green & Trim do wall to wall pavers in the backyard a couple years ago and still get many compliments on the look and the quality of the work. We are completely satisfied with Daryl and his crew and recommend his company to you for any outside improvements or services."

"I had some landscaping done over the summer by a different contractor but one thing that was overlooked in the design was proper drainage once a travertine walkway was installed. Based on the impact of the last monsoon that hit the east valley, there was a substantial amount of standing water between our house foundation and the new walkway. I met with Ravi who basically engineered a drainage system/network to get water out of our yard and direct it onto the street. His crew showed up on time and installed a series of catch basins that were interconnected. They also did some repair on the travertine that had "collapsed" due to errosion from the monsoon. The Balance crew worked extremely fast and were done in 3 days (this includes the 1st day which was a site survey along with the lay-out of the underground work to be done). Great team and Ravi was a pleasure to work with in getting out drainage problem resolved. I highly recommend this company for your landscaping projects."

"Jerry Finney and his team were amazing to work with. I have never had a home renovation project go so smoothly. Jerry was great at keeping us updated on the progress, gave us realistic timelines and his team showed up everyday as promised. They were kind, professional and respectful. The cleanup was perfect and each piece of the project went smoothly. I couldnâ t be more thrilled. We had our pool filled in and turf added to the backyard, our rock in the yard was refreshed and we had new gates added to our yard. We will be spending a lot of time enjoying our low maintenance backyard. A HUGE thank you to Jerry and his team for a job well done. I would highly recommend AZ Home Services, you wonâ t be disappointed."

"I have worked with many contractors over the years and H-Bros Excavating is by far the best experience I have ever had. They showed up when they said they would to provide an estimate. They started the job at the time they said they would. They kept me informed of the progress, what was going to be needed, each next step, and met the completion time they projected. When they were almost done, I found that I had not communicated exactly what I needed and it wasn't done quite the way I had intended. After I was clear on what it was I wanted, without a blink, sour word, or any frustration, they simply went to work to give me what I wanted. The entire mistake was mine for not being clear and yet they were happy to fix what was almost done. All of this and the final bill was exactly what I had been originally quoted. You will not fine a more professional or personable company anywhere. Their attention to detail and desire to provide me with what I wanted is unparalled. I will use them again and I will recommend them to anyone needed an excavating company. You will not be disappointed. Dan"

"Excellent work on removing a large acacia tree including stump removal. They also planted two new trees and installed the water system. New trees are thriving. It’s been three years. The crew completed the jobs in a half day and were very tidy. A little high on price, but worth it."

"Troy was an excellent designer. He had vision where we didn't. Picked all the right plants and a beautiful plum tree. Really nice tile job over existing patio plus boarders. The crews were on-time, courteous and didn't miss any details. Small backyard and patio redo with access only through the living space. Took 5 full days to complete and the crew never bumped a door or anything. Not cheap, but well worth it. Highly, highly recommend."

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.

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.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

After you successfully remove your boulder, you have a few options for what to do to get rid of it. You can rent a dumpster if your yard has many boulders or if you’re planning a larger project. You can even save the boulder and reuse it elsewhere on your property to save on landscaping costs. A few ideas include using the boulder as a natural, abstract statue, breaking it into smaller pieces to line your garden bed, or offering it to a landscaping company that could reuse it for another project.
