"AGD did a fantastic job on our paver walkway. We have a newer construction home that had a concrete walkway and a very odd shaped driveway that makes it unusable for parking two cars. I called AGD to get a quote to tear out the concrete walkway, install pavers, and put pavera down next to our driveway to make it usable for two cars. Several other contractors said the job was "too small", and wouldn't even coke look at it. Not AGD... Kameron was very knowledgeable, friendly and more than helpful. They did a great job that we are very happy with, and have gotten many compliments on it already. They are very busy, so you may have to wait a few weeks for them to start the job, but that just means they do great work and are in high demand. Would highly recommend."

"Had 2 properties that needed upgrades on backflow valves to meet new requirements. Major excavation, removal of old valves, installation of new valves and concrete replacement. CRM crews were punctual, professional and knowledgeable of permitting procedures and inspections. Great to work with, on budget and willing to work with us on schedule since our business is 7/24/365."

"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."

"Our experience with Apollo Pavers was exceptional.  We contacted four different paver companies, and Apollo was the only company to create a professional design up front.  Paola, Apollo's design architect, even revised our design (complete with CAD drawing) at no charge before a contract was signed.  Her design was beautiful, and incorporated all of our original ideas plus some thoughts of her own.  The contract itself was very detailed and professional, and clearly spelled out every phase of the project.
Everyone in the company was very pleasant to deal with, and patiently answered all of our questions, both up front and throughout the project.  The work proceeded without delay, and there were no surprises.  The workers were all friendly and courteous, and worked extremely hard.  Apollo promptly replaced the sod in the front yard which was damaged during the project, as was promised in the beginning.
The final outcome of the project exceeded our expectations, and is beautiful.  Everyone who has seen our backyard has been very impressed.  We would recommend Apollo Pavers without hesitation.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.
