"Drake was a pleasure to do business with. He rebuilt a custom set of outdoor stairs, and completely renovated the exterior of my log cabin-- restained and rechinked the structure, and provided other repairs. He did top notch work with great attention to detail, and the end result was beautiful. Drake completed all the work in a timely manner and provided great communication throughout the process. No headaches or surprises. I highly recommend Drake Austin and will be in touch with him in the future for other carptentry and construction projects."

I’m a creative, detail-oriented handyman and problem solver who enjoys turning ideas into practical, finished projects. I specialize in landscape projects, improving both indoor and outdoor spaces, excavation, property improvements, building and repair work, junk removal, transport and delivery services of items up to 10,000 lbs, handyman work and general repairs, and more. Clients tell me I have a knack for finding smart, low-cost solutions that make a space look better, function better, and add value without unnecessary expense. Whether it’s hanging pictures and lights, building something from scratch, improving a yard or curb appeal, or figuring out a creative solution to a challenging project, I take pride in doing quality work and paying attention to the details. My goal is to provide dependable, thoughtful service and leave every project looking much better than when I started.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

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.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
