"Shepherd Contracting remodeled both of my bathrooms and installed new flooring throughout my entire house. Thomas was awesome! He was respectful, easy to work with, and offered way better pricing than other contractors I got estimates from, without compromising on quality. The work turned out 10/10, and I?ll definitely be using them again!"

"We have a vacation home in Prescott Valley and needed to find a reliable person to take care of the outside of our house. I was impressed when the owner Chris (Uber) Ayala quickly answered the phone or calls back right away. Chris has been polite, professional and helpful. He and his crew took care of our neglected front and back yard in Prescott Valley. They removed dead plants and leaves, trimmed shrubs and removed the many weeds that were the result of monsoon rains. Cleaned patio, sidewalk and driveway. The place looks great! Quality, dependable work at a reasonable price. We will be using them on a monthly basis for yard care as we are only there part-time. It's nice to find someone you can depend on when you are not there. We will be using him in the spring to fix our irrigation system."

"They wrote up a complete Scope of Work detailing the work to be done including all costs. They showed up on time and did a very nice job of trimming two trees. They were very professional and charged $850 less than other businesses who bid on the job. I will definitely use them again in the future."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.
