"I was very impressed with the quality of work that was done. Mr. Blanco has a style of professionalism that is all his own...I was in need of a bathroom remodeling, and was referred to RB. On time , had no problems throughout the job, from changing out all fixtures to replacing tub and shower, and sink. A complete revamp done to my bathroom! would definitely recommend RB to anyone who is looking for someone that knows how to do a job right. I'll even go as far as giving an extra star ... that's how satisfied I am with the work that was done. Thank you once again RB !"

"Hired Ken @ Hidden Creek to source, deliver, and install two 5000 gal water tanks in a difficult to access location. Ken reviewed various options to move those tanks on our property (involving steep grades, and an insufficiently wide dirt road, and found a time- and budget-optimal solution. They were on time, the work was done in a safe and professional manner, and they left the the construction zone in the same condition as they found it. Much recommended."

"BG Construction was a pleasure to work with. Price was very fair for the work performed and the owner was very flexible on changes during the project. Great customer service and he showed up everyday at the time he said he would be here. I would recommend BG if you need any home improvement project that requires land clearing or digging. Hy"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

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.
