"Very disappointed. This guy is a crook. I paid way too much for what he did and he did not do the work properly. He replaced pipes that were leaking from our upstairs shower. I had another leak a few weeks after he did the repair. 2nd leak was not related to the pipes he repaired, but the 2nd plumber who came out for the 2nd leak had to cut into the ceiling where HK&S Plumbing replaced the pipes and told me that the work was not done properly. He did not glue the pipes properly and he used a rubber coupling that is not allowed in California. The other plumbing company said they would fix his work for 65% less than what I paid HK&S. When I asked HK&S about all this, he gave excuses about the small space and how much more work it would have been to do the work the right way. When I asked him again for a refund, he is now saying his work will last "forever" (really?) and has nothing to say about what he did wrong. He is not giving me a refund. Not sure I will use anyone thru Angi again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

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

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.
