"I can’t say enough great things about Shepherd Contracting! From start to finish, they made my kitchen remodel an absolute breeze. I had braced myself for months of chaos, dust, and disruption, but they completely shattered those expectations. Their team understands that you’re living in your home during the renovation and goes out of their way to make it as comfortable as possible. The attention to detail, clear communication, and professionalism were second to none. They kept everything on schedule and clean throughout the process. Not only did they deliver a stunning kitchen that exceeded my expectations, but they also made what is usually a stressful experience smooth and hassle-free. If you’re looking for a contractor who genuinely cares about their clients and goes above and beyond to deliver both quality craftsmanship and exceptional service, look no further than Shepherd Contracting. I would recommend."

"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."

"Scottgave me a fair price for mowing at my retirement property in Prescott. So I hired him. He was quick and did it right away. A local resident advised the work was good. So I'm happy and expect to hire Nostab again when cutting is next needed."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.
