"I am absolutely delighted with the incredible work that Chris and his team did on my home. The new floors and complete kitchen remodel are absolutely stunning, and the craftsmanship is truly exceptional. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. Your attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to delivering high-quality work exceeded all of my expectations. My new kitchen and floors have completely transformed my home, and i could not be happier with the results. Thank you so much for your hard work and outstanding service.

"I called, Ryan came and gave me an estimate which was very reasonable. We set a time and they came and did the job. I had to go to work and was not here when they finished. Everything was cleaned up and you couldnâ t tell anyone had been here. I would and will call Ryan again in the future. I highly recommend him."

"Vinny is a very friendly and professional guy who we really enjoyed working with. The quality of his work is excellent- we used him for our sidewalk and refurbishing the rod iron railings. Overall positive experience with him and the final project turned out great! We would definitely recommend him and will be using his services again in future projects."

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.

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.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

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.
