I have been building and remodeling homes since 1980. My years of experience have given me insight into what details and materials I can incorporate into my projects that my customers will benefit from year to year. I always upgrade in areas that will benefit the homeowner, for instance, I use Radiant Barrier Sheeting for all new or replacement roofing. This will give years of savings on Heating and AC. Whenever possible, I use Engineered beams that won't twist or sag like common wood beams. Tuscan and Mediterranean style homes are our forte. By using Acrylic Color Coatings instead of common stucco, we create homes that don't have exterior cracking. For years, I have worked with the same designer and engineer.\nWe can build any style or vision of your dream home to life. We build and remodel homes in all price ranges for clients of all backgrounds.\nRecently, we completed a 5,000 sf home in Arcadia. Our quality of workmanship led to three other projects in that area. Through word of mouth, we have projects from Temecula to San Gabriel. Please email - [email protected]

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

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.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help.
