"We hired Rainforest LA to install our front yard landscaping. The design had been done by another company and Yosi worked with the designer and made our yard beautiful. Yosi was professional and responded timely to my texts. The prices were very reasonable and the quality of work was exceptional. We will use this company again."

"I heard about SES from my friend. He did last year a kitchen remodeling project with them. I wanted to renovate 2 bathrooms, so I called them right away and got 4 more quotes. I felt more comfortable with SES and decided to do the project with them. The result came out greater than I imagined. Thank you guys"

"We had been dreaming of remodeling our backyard for years, and after researching multiple companies, we decided to go with Regal Construction & Remodeling. Best decision ever! Ben and his team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. We wanted a complete overhaul—new pavers, a pergola, custom seating, and landscaping. Ben worked closely with us to create a design that matched our vision while staying within our budget. His knowledge and creative ideas were invaluable. The entire crew was polite, professional, and respectful of our property, making sure to clean up each day. What impressed us the most was how seamless everything felt. The project was completed in a timely manner, and Ben kept everything on schedule with clear communication throughout. We never felt like we were left in the dark, which is so important when taking on a big renovation like this. Now, we finally have a backyard we’re proud to entertain in. The quality of work is top-notch, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Regal Construction & Remodeling to anyone looking for a high-quality backyard transformation!"

"We hired BG Construction and Remodeling to design and build our ADU, and we couldn't be happier! Their team was professional, communicative and incredibly skilled. They stayed on schedule (sometimes too fast for me to even write a check!) and a delivered high-quality finished product that exceeded our expectations. Every project is going to run into some unexpected challenges, but BG was patient and worked closely with us every step of the way. We were very fortunate to find honest, hardworking and reliable general contractors in BG. A million thanks to Joseph, Johnny and the entire team at BG Construction."

"I have used the Drain Co. several times. The work is always solid and reliable. They appear to have raised their prices though as last year it was $172 and this year $262 for 3 drains. The guy was here for roughly 2 hours. Last year it was 1.5 hours. I would have preferred knowing ahead of time the cost rather than being surprised by the bill, especially given that we are repeat customers and had an expectation that the cost would be equivalent to last year since our yard has not changed."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

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.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.
