"I have been searching for a company to do my driveway for over a year. I was scared to pull the trigger on a 3,400sqft driveway. When Andrew reached out to me, He spent tons of time explaining everything in detail (also educating me about the process) and that was something different. You could tell how passionate he was to just make a killer project for the customer. Then once he came by, he continued same thing, and actually saved me a bunch of money! He created a design that took off 20% of the concrete. I felt very comfortable finally making our decision. Andrew communicated everything through the process and if I had a question I quickly had the answer. His crew was terrific, kind, funny and professional. The concrete looks fantastic. The kids love it more then my wife and I. Would I use this company again? Well, we are planning the back patio, my moms driveway and my place of business... if that says anything! Thank you Andrew!"

"My experience with Marc at Make it Drain was fantastic. We had a problem with leakage under the house that we thought was fixed when we bought the place. Turns out two years later that something wasn't done right and we had wastewater accumulating from the kitchen. Marc from Make it Drain came out on short notice on the weekend to look at the job, and he gave me a great estimate, educated me about the issues, talked me through the process, and had a friendly but no-pressure approach. I had several other companies out to make estimates, and one of the estimates was three times what Marc quoted me!! When we arranged the job it was easy, and Marc and his guys showed up on time, did exactly what he said he'd do, kept everything super clean, took pictures to show me what was going on, and continued to keep me looped in so I understood everything. It was a painless process, done quickly and professionally. I will call them anytime I have plumbing needs!"

We repiped over 50,000 homes and apartments over the years and we always put our clients and their homes first with the best value and quality in the industry. You are the number ONE reason why Repipe 1, Inc. is #1 in service, quality, and price in California for the past 25 years. We only use USA-MADE pipes, fittings, and valves from the finest manufacturers in the country. We guarantee satisfaction to all our clients and stand behind every repipe with our 100% lifetime and satisfaction warranty. We repipe over 50 houses per week so we can secure a fair price we buy our materials by the truck load so we can pass the discounts straight to you. We promise a start and finish time and stand behind our promises to get you back to your own regular schedule. You will recieve nothing but the finest service and materials, and you will get the most complete and professional job in the industry.

"I’m a plumbing contractor and friends out of the area finally decided on a reptile after their 3rd slab leak. I hadn’t worked with Repipe 1 but had heard quite good things about them. I recommended my friend at least get an estimate. The estimate was $5,000 for a complete repipe of a 4 bed, 3 full bath, 2500+ sf home with two water heaters at opposite ends of the large, single story high end home. I suggested he accept the proposal. Repipe 1 replaced every outside hose bib, every “angle stop” (shut off valve under sinks and toilets), patched every hole they made in the drywall and volor matched the paint perfectly. My company could NOT have don’t the job any better or cheaper. They were there and gone in 2 full days. You would never had known they just did a full repipe. The old pipes was 100% replaced right up to the tub and shower fixtures. Not “stub” of old pipe left anywhere. This was 10 years ago and my friend couldn’t be happier. Never a problem with any of their work. They specialize in one thing, repiping homes. They have it down right. The only reason I writing this review is because we were discussing it today, 10 years later these forums weren’t as available as they are today."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenches are 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the right depth for your trench will depend on the nature of your project. For example, if you’re digging a trench as part of a French drain installation, it should be 18 inches deep. An excavation professional can explain how deep your trench should be.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even if the project only involves grading or yard leveling. Excavation permits help protect the topography in your area and can avoid issues with poor drainage. In most cases, your excavation company will know whether or not permits are required and will even pull them and close them out for you before and after the job. You can also verify whether permits are necessary by calling your local building department and explaining the proposed project.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

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.

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.
