Pete came within hours to give an estimate and started 2 days later. His crew was efficient and cleaned up afterwards. They hauled all the trash away and completed installation in 2 days. Pete was on site each day and gave excellent suggestions. I am very well pleased with the results.

The carpet had not been professionally cleaned in 7 years and there were quite a few stains and dirt tracks on a light colored carpet. Came out fantastic and saved me from having to replace it for another few years. Professional and responsive and I will use again sooner than seven years...lol

I have been using them for about 25 years. They are punctual, they are clean, and they are not trying to gouge people. One person comes all the time. They leave they area very clean and they put on the footies over their shoes so they don't get dirt on the floor.

The hardscape around the pool was great. Basically, they cemented the existing flagstones instead of having patches of grass and dirt around the pool. If the work stopped there, I would give them an A. Then they removed the brown lawn on the side of the house, created a drip system for the...

Two young men came and hauled off an entire garage worth of junk, they were on time and even though I used more truck than I ordered, they were able to do it. I'll use them again. Much cheaper then 1-800-Junk!!!!

Manuel and Juan showed up on time and were very careful not to track dirt into the house. After I showed Manuel the issues with the bathrooms, he told me he did not believe it would take very long to fix. I had purchased the 2 hours 2 plumbers deal so he said it should be able to be...

At our first meeting, several options were explained clearly, with their advantages and disadvantages and costs. For example, the different types of drive, how quiet they are, how long they last, etc. The installer showed up at the appointed time. They called ahead shortly before they...

Scott worked on this unit last summer so I called him in again when the unit didn't work when the warm weather began this year. He recommended a replacement and suggested I get a second opinion, which I appreciated. I had another company come and look at it and they too recommended a...

Great Job for the Money!!! I called about 10 landscapers and chose 3 to come out to my yard for bids. SB Landscaping came out and gave me the lowest bid and seemed the most professional. They dug holed and added sprinkler, valves, piping, timer , about 3 cubic yards of dirt,...

"These people are competent but their ethics are highly questionable. I posted a job description on yelp and tendered offers from many plumbers John's Plumbing replied and agreed to do the work for a specified price. The work consisted of two parts. After they had done the first, they told me it was best to wait until the bathroom wall was tiled before doing the second and assured me they would return. After tiling was complete and I requested they come and finish the work they surprisingly told me it would cost another $500. Miscommunications can of course occur but in this case the scope of work was given to them in detail and clearly included both parts. This is not only highly unprofessional but outright dishonest. While they may be competent I would advise people to consider choosing another company for their plumbing needs that has a higher ethical standard."

FAQs for dirt hauling projects in Universal City, CA
The kinds of items or materials accepted will vary by hauling company. Some companies will not handle hazardous waste, but hiring ones that do will cost from $5 to $100 or more, depending on what type and quantity of material.
Most companies will haul items such as:
Construction and remodeling waste: $100–$600
Appliances: $50–$600
Furniture: $50–$400
Electronics: $60–$200
Yard waste: $70–$500
Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.
The cost to hire a professional junk hauling service ranges from $60 to $600, averaging about $270. Your final price is determined by the type of junk, amount of junk, the distance to the dumpsite, and the equipment required to move and haul your items or materials. Keep in mind that construction junk removal is more expensive than hauling household items, so expect to pay $800 for removing large piles of debris.
The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities.
When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.
The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type.
When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.
