"Encore Builders is THE BEST!!! They worked on my backyard in Woodland Hills. I was in dire need of a solution since we have some gravel and pavement but I wanted some grass as well. Oz came up with the best idea and suggested we go a large central patch of grass. Take a lot at the pics!! The work speaks for itself!!! Thanks Oz and Brandon! You guys rock!!"

"Amazingly, it was 90 feet of fencing. He did it piece by piece and even reinforced the bottom so that no "critters" could enter our patio. All was done in 2 days, and he even did a few little touch-up things with the landscape. we are considering having him do a stone wall at the property line shortly. We are very happy with his work"

"This problem began Saturday 2 Feb. 2013 when I did a load of clothes and had decided that the pond I have for a pet goose and duck needed to be cleaned also. The washing machine is in the basement and when I went to check to see if the rinse cycle was done I found that a relatively small amount of water had been dumped on the floor. At the same time the pond which should have been draining would not drain. Thinking that it was the pond that was clogged I began doing all the different steps that I have used over the years to unclog the pond's drain but was not successful. After spending a very frustratingly long day with a good neighbor who was trying to help, I called it quits until the following day. Sunday was spent much the same way. As was Monday and Tuesday. A neighbor has a 100 ft. power snake and though it was used from under the house to the pond, nothing helped. Finally on Thursday February 7 I called the Drain Co. The plumber arrived within an hour, brought a 200 ft 3and quot; power snake and he was finished within an hour. The problem was and is twofold; tree roots and a section of the sewer drain pipe is out of alignment. He could not give me their standard 30 day guarantee as a result of this which I totally understood and he suggested that until I repaired or replaced that particular section it would be in my best interest to have the main line cleaned on a regular basis. I agreed.
I used this company in the 1990s and in 2005 before joining Angie's List - I was impressed with this company then and am very satisfied with their work, their prices, their professional behavior now. I was very happy to find them on this list with such high marks and am glad to be able to add my own review. I did not speak with the owner Star this time, but instead Vickie, who answered the phone was most helpful and seemed to really care about my plumbing problem. What a pleasure to talk with someone immediately rather than some and quot;menuand quot; recorded message, and to know that she would do her best to line up help as soon as possible. Can't ask for anything more than this when dealing with a company whose service is needed.

"My house was in shambles and required a full makeover. We also wanted to add a shower to the downstairs bathroom for my mom as she gets older and stairs are getting tougher. I got 6 estimates and most came back much higher than the one I received from US Home developers and their definitions of work to be provided was also very vague, and left a lot of room for additional fees. Belle gave me a very detailed contract outlining everything that would be done. Armando was our contractor and like Belle, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. The work was done very quickly and only took as long as it did because of wait times for material. Belle met with us a few times to shop for material and helped us through the design process which was very helpful because I was stressing out on this aspect. Armando made sure everything was the way I wanted it to be and was very flexible when it came to scheduling. At the end of job he even had all the junk in my backyard, which was a lot, picked up. I was so happy with the work they did downstairs that I decided to rehire them to do the upstairs. They even added roof replacement to the contract for an additional price that was much lower than the 4 other estimates I got. My house went from looking like it was straight out of an episode of Hoarders to looking like it’s straight out of a magazine. Couldn’t be happier!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.
