"Giovani and Dell of Ultra Construction were great to work with and they responded quickly and efficiently to our contractor inquiry. They came out the next day and provided a fair and reasonable estimate. Dell and his crew, including Julian came out and had the concrete walkway and stairs installed in just one day. It looks great and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Their prep work and cleanup were outstanding. Would highly recommend this company for any concrete construction work"

"The work was great, they have the technology to find the issue quickly and they are very knowledgeable. Communication was great at front, we discussed any additional services needed in advance and went over the process in general. The excavation, repair, and finishes were very clean. New Era Rooter & Plumbing are very professionals. I will definitely recommend this company and call them again."

"He was available by phone, and was flexible in scheduling meetings which is great. He was professional, and seemed quite knowledgable. In the end, I didn't use Nato's services because his quote was twice as much as the other contractor I was considering. Perhaps his prices may be more competitive in other services he offers. Either way, working with this company was a pleasant experience."

"Alfredo contacted me very quickly and I explained our issue. He agreed to come by the same day. He assessed the problem and gave me a detailed explanation of the issue and how to fix it. This included advising me that the repair could be problematic since the pipe was galvanized steel. I appreciated his approach to keep the repair simple and to address any issues as they came up. His estimate was very reasonable and the repair was successful. There was a small leak that started on a separate section which Alfredo came back and fixed as part of the original bid price. He was efficient and responded to all of my questions. That was very much appreciated!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

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

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.
