"Fantastic! Right from the start Mr Perry laid out steps he would be taking, in getting a level, structured pasture. He would always call ahead to check if access to the property. My soil was like concrete. He would work the soil repeadily over a few months. When he decided the soil was ready, he waited for the best planting time(no frosts). He leveled the pasture with precion. Then planted the seed. I just irrigated the pasture today. The water flowed on a perfect flat flow! The work he accomplished was perfect. He is honest, straight forward, and highly knowledgeable."

I run this business with my sons. We generally bid jobs out so the customer knows about how much it will cost, but we do work by the hour as well with the rate depending on the type of work done.

"We are here visiting and in an RV park. Tree limb was dropped causing damage. Owner came out said I would be hearing from him and I had to hear from a 3rd party that he was not going to fix damage caused by them. Poor communication and a lack of concern to fix damage caused. Neighbors even witnessed the damage. As well as 3rd party had a different story from them them when I mentioned the entire RV moving of which they bumped into as well.

We are a family owned business and have been providing septic services to Yavapai County for over 15 years. Our business includes residential & commercial septic tank cleaning & inspections. We accept all credit cards, debit cards and we can bill Real Estate transactions through the escrow account.

"This company is very low in customer service, high on price, and low on accuracy of the issue. They use contractors that seem to be more interested in getting more business and patting themselves on the back then tending to the needs of the customer. I didn't believe their assessment of our drain and went to a different company and glad we did. Their assessment of the flow drain was not even close to being accurate. Pictures from the next company proved our theory. I would not suggest using this company."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

On average, you’re looking at about 12 hours to dig 100 linear feet. Your actual work time will come down to how many twists and turns there are when digging—such as rocky soil, tree roots, obstructions, and whether the ground is frozen.

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.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

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.
