"Met with Craig to review the project and agree on a price. Set up a time for the work to be performed. Craig’s team was on the job on time and actually completed it a day early. The workers were fantastic and went the extra mile. I would highly recommend Craig Campbell services."

"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."

"Joe did a fantastic job! I hired Joe to add a 1' rock retaining wall, add some steps, remove concrete, purchase and plant my front sloped yard. He was very flexible when I asked for more soil and plants and the rock wall and steps are beautiful. He suggested a special mesh wrap around the plants to deter gophers and they seem to work so far. He was communicative and kept the site clean when work was in progress."

"I couldn't be happier with the concrete work that was done in my backyard. From start to finish, the team was quick, professional, and incredibly efficient. They showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the process, and completed the project faster than I expected without sacrificing quality. What impressed me most was how they went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right. They paid attention to the details, kept the work area clean, and made sure I was completely satisfied with the final result. The finished concrete looks fantastic and has completely transformed my backyard. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality concrete work. Excellent service, great workmanship, and a team that truly cares about their customers!"

"BEST!! David's company was the best ever for the work performed. We needed synthetic grass, new fence, stone work, irrigation system, drilling, planting and more. As a senior I have had many projects performed by contractors. NEVER, NEVER have we experience the quality, perfection, performance, attention to detail than David. Very attentive and wonderful to communicate with."

"Eduardo and his team were amazing! They exceeded our expectations with skill, efficiency, professionalism, fairness, and concern for our needs. If you want the job done right and in a timely manner, New Era Rooter & Plumbing is worth your consideration. We will definitely call them for any future jobs we need. They replaced our leaky water line between the meter and our house (under our asphalt driveway) all within 48 hours of our initial call. The team is friendly, skilled, and hard-working. They left our property clean, and in good condition."

"He was available by phone, and was flexible in scheduling meetings which is great. He was professional, and seemed quite knowledgable. In the end, I didn't use Nato's services because his quote was twice as much as the other contractor I was considering. Perhaps his prices may be more competitive in other services he offers. Either way, working with this company was a pleasant experience."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

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.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.
