"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!"

"Victor and his team are easy to work with. Started the project on time and finished ahead of schedule. He kept me informed of everything and always showed up on time. Victor and his team planted trees & shrubs (about 25 in total) and did a concrete slab in the backyard as well. The backyard looks amazing. I would highly recommend Everlasting Green Landscaping."

"not that great. basically paid $99 to get an estimate. included cleaning roof and minimal repairs. took a while to get appointment, and then when they came, they didn't even do the work! gave a really big estimate and then re-seheduled to have someone else do the work. they wouldn't totally replace the roof, gave different estimates to repair, I went with a different company to do a full roof rplacement."

"When we purchased the house, it was a 30 year old home. Almost everybody in the period of five years to seven years wanted to convert to copper plumbing. So what they offered at that time was anyone you referred to if they chose to use their service, you have $500 cash payment which was really nice because half of our neighbors and our family members used them. I do not know what they do now, but it is a really nice service because they are a very good company. They did a great job."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

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.

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.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.
