"Quick response with quote, which was really reasonable. They were able to complete the project right away. I had them remove glued down wood flooring, which is really difficult. A couple hours after they arrived the area was cleaned and ready for install. Will hire again for other projects."

We have been having tree root problems with partial clogging of the yard drains for several years Our neighbor's trees were causing a pain in the drains. Previous hired rooter companies weren't able to remove all the roots. About 80 feet of pipe is under a concrete walkway. I was told told by the previous rooter companies that I might have to break out the concrete (big bucks!) and replace the pipe in several years.

I decided to call The Drain Co after reading the positive reviews on Angie's List. Ramon arrived on time and was polite and was very knowledgeable --- 20+ years experience! He explained how the procedure was to be done correctly. He used the proper size cutter (the previous companies used a small coil type rooter after giving up using a cutter, which only partially rooted through the root mass). He knew the exact cable feeding rate to resistance met to get a complete root cut, and when to pull the cable and repeat the process. He pulled out a 7 foot string of roots which at first I thought was a baby python. After clearing the roots he applied a root killer which relieved my anxiety about replacing the pipe which was under concrete. Ramon did a thorough clean up afterwards. Will definitely use The Drain Co again and highly recommend them!
Star (owner) called next day to make sure I was satisfied --- answer: extremely satisfied!

"Absolutely In love with the work that was done at my place! The result was even better then i had imagined, I had my bathroom and kitchen done. I have always been terrified of contractors as in the past I was ripped off, but this is not the case they communicated with me every step of the way and made this an enjoyable experience for me. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to remodel or have work done in there home! Thank you again to US Home Developers Inc you guys did an incredible job"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.

Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.
