"I normally don’t leave reviews, but the amazing service I received inspired me to share my experience with others. Kan Builders just completed my project and the entire process was nice. My project manager was incredibly respectful of my home, made sure her crew kept everything clean and out of the way. She truly treated my home like her own. The communication with the entire team was great from start to finish. I am so grateful for the results my husband and I love that we can now host and have staycations in our own home . I highly recommend them to anyone. To Keme thank you for our great human to human conversations. Now that the project is over that is what I’ll miss. Thank you Kan Builders"

"AGD did a fantastic job on our paver walkway. We have a newer construction home that had a concrete walkway and a very odd shaped driveway that makes it unusable for parking two cars. I called AGD to get a quote to tear out the concrete walkway, install pavers, and put pavera down next to our driveway to make it usable for two cars. Several other contractors said the job was "too small", and wouldn't even coke look at it. Not AGD... Kameron was very knowledgeable, friendly and more than helpful. They did a great job that we are very happy with, and have gotten many compliments on it already. They are very busy, so you may have to wait a few weeks for them to start the job, but that just means they do great work and are in high demand. Would highly recommend."

"It took us almost a year to be able to get our retaining wall done. Kristian and Quetzal Landscaping did a fantastic job including dealing with our neighbor and his concerns. We are moving out of the area, however, if we stayed and needed another wall built Kristian would be our go-to guy. Thank you so much Kristian."

"This is the second time I've used Silverback and I'm about to call for a third job. They're fantastic! I had an old shed filled with pesticides and rat poop that I wanted gone. Without me even having to be there, Chris came out, took a look and then called me with an estimate of $450.00. I came home later that day and that longstanding eyesore was gone, the rat pooped cleaned up and the pesticides stored in a box and left for me to dispose of at the next neighborhood hazardous waste drop off day. Another great experience."

"It went great. They were fast on time and the quality was excellent. They worked around my schedule and helped us get everything done to today's standards. They helped me get the right hardware and made sure we didn't overbuy or replace things we didn't need to. Our kitchen faucet was rusted on and it took quite a bit of effort. They took care of it and didn't try to charge leverage that to charge us extra. I just have to say, quality work, hard fast efficient professional plumbers and honest people."

"I had the pleasure of working with John Dickie Construction for a remodel of both my kitchen and master bathroom, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results. From start to finish, John and his team were professional, reliable, and detail-oriented. The quality of workmanship was exceptional, and they exceeded my expectations in every way. They listened to my ideas, offered valuable suggestions, and delivered on time. The kitchen and bathroom turned out even better than I imagined, blending modern functionality with stunning design. If you’re looking for a contractor who delivers top-notch craftsmanship with excellent customer service, I highly recommend John Dickie Construction. I’ll definitely be reaching out for future projects!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

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

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.
