"Nick did a terrific job removing the entire front yard carefully. He shoveled the areas he could not reach with his Bobcat, removed tough roots, kept me informed about potential problems, and spread 8 cubic yards of mulch and gravel efficiently. Isaac (Ike), the owner, was very professional and gave me a good price, and even discounted it when they had to come a day late. The work took three hours and Nick left the front clean and swept. Much appreciated!"

"Campbell services provided me timely excavation of driveway. His crew were professional and courteous. I was pleased with the time they took in making sure the mess was cleaned to my satisfaction along with taking extra care to preserve the existing landscape. I only wish other companies would adopt that type of work ethic."

"Hector came up with a great solution for some drainage issues at our house. They were quick and efficiently and very cost effective. After they left it looked like they had never been there. Highly recommend."

"Responsive, friendly, punctual, and highly competent. It helped that I was overseeing the work because some decisions and improvisation had to be done on the fly with the repair of a sprinkler valve, installation of and two ball-valve cutoffs, and relocation of an adjacent faucet."

"Finding a plumber who is there to solve the issue and not try to redo your whole bathroom is hard to find. Everyone wants to cut and replace but New Era Plumbing took the time to diagnose and fix what was needed. Efficient. Cost effective. Has the skills, knowledge, and confidence to do it in one morning. I feel like lots of plumbers wanted to hedge on what they could deliver, especially since they are turning off your water. I’m very grateful to finally find a skilled professional."

"We bought a 'fixer-upper' and of all the contractors (and we have worked with A LOT on this house) he is the top. He is prompt, he always follows through, his team works hard and gets the job done fast and well. If there are any concerns he comes out personally and takes care of them immediately. He is flexible and thinks on his feet. His pricing is very reasonable. There wasn't a thing that we didn't like about working with Nato and team. He is our official go to guy for landscaping and other projects. We trust Nato, his work and recommendations to us We would definitely recommend him to our friends. My husband found him on Angie's list and it was one of the best finds we have had in the 3 years we owned the house."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

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.

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.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.
