"I was very pleased with the work Bill and his crew did. All were very pleasant and professional. They were able to do a final cleanup from over the winter, removing all sticks and leaves. Following that They weeded, raked, installed edging, applied and spread mulch. Did a final cleanup of the mulch, driveway and walk areas before leaving. Very happy with the job they did. I would recommend this company and I would hire them again."

"Great experience beginning to end. We had 3 contractors come out for quotes and Stable Works was a one stop shop that met all our needs (removal of old chain link fence, bushes, trees, and trumpet vines cleared, plus the install of a new vinyl fence) while the other companies would not do the removal and ground prep and not even entertain subcontracting the work out. John provided the quote and gave his recommendations. We had to get the permits (which Iâ ve never had to do with other contractors weâ ve hired), but he was upfront about that and it was a good learning experience for me. Once the permits were squared away, they started early on Monday and by the end of the day Wednesday were complete! Mike and Jonathan were the workers and did a fantastic job. They were quick to get started each morning, hard working, and answered any questions we had. I would recommend Stable Works for all your outdoor needs. They truly are a one stop shop and I look forward to getting them in for the next project."

"Nolan, Matt and Juan were efficient, reliable and did excellent work in a timely fashion. And they kept their work area tidy, and cleaned all surrounding areas after installing a beautiful patio with pavers. Nolan gave an excellent presentation prior to the job and included a drawing that satisfied my Home Owners Associationâ s measurement requirements."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

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.

Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.

Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help.
