He speeds through jobs efficiently and with attention to detail, offering updates & suggestions along the way. He knows his stuff and how to stick to the budget. I'm planning to have him back to do more work before too long."

Small jobs welcome

"Jed was on the ball and contacted me and came out to see what I wanted on Sunday after I posted my request on Friday evening.He said it would be a month before he could do the job. I was pleased he told me about the delay. He brought in a friend who knows plants, since he is more of a hardscape guy, which I appreciated. He underestimated some areas, so it cost more and took longer than the estimate, but he kept me informed the whole time. His crew put some of the plants a little off from where we had discussed. The quality of work was great otherwise. The end result looks really good."

"We had Jose install about 650 sq.ft. of turf and the workmanship and speed were truly exceptional. The only reason I rated the overall quality 4 stars was that getting in contact with him was difficult at best and I had no idea anything was even happening until he called me and said he would be there in the morning the following day. However, when Jose did show up the work took 2 days and the results were superb!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.
