"It went extremely well! They were punctual, hardworking and professional. It was necessary to dig up my neighbor's landscaping, so they were very careful to disturb only what was necessary and to restore everything to its original condition. They even replaced her broken underground downspout extension (which was draining into my basement!) without comment or additional charge. When my neighbor accused them of causing a problem, MJ was quick to respond and the team on-site made a point of apologizing to her in person. I don't think MJ caused the problem, so I was very impressed that they "went high" to investigate the matter and, as I said, apologize for the inconvenience she felt she suffered. The work they did inside to remove mold and seal the wall was thorough and neat. The gentleman doing the work cleaned up everything and took all of his equipment and trash with him. his is especially important since he was working with strong chemicals. My contact in the office was prompt to address anything I threw her way. It was easy to make payments online. Best of all - no sign of water in the basement since they were here!!"

"We are new to the Lewes De. Area. We had a new home built and needed a walk way and courtyard installed. My wife has difficulty walking so having a front walkway installed was a priority. I called 3 landscape/hardscape companies to get quotes and ideas for the job. All three did show up on their scheduled dates. Took measurements, gave suggestions and 2 gave very nice books to choose materials and ideas from. Noland Adams was the only business to get back to us with 3 different options and prices. We never heard anything back from the other two businesses. Since this job was a priority we went with Adams landscape. Wow!! are we glad we did. Noland and Juan did a fantastic job. Price was more than fair considering the amount of work and materials. They stayed on this job from start to finish. No skipping days. They paid attention to details and the finished job came out excellent. Do not hesitate to give Adams Landscaping a call. You won't be disappointed with their work. I guess the other 2 landscapers follow the "Lower, Slower, Delaware " saying. They don't recognize a priority job. Adams Landscaping was prompt,reliable and fair priced."

"Jeremy was always responsive to our calls and listened to what we wanted. While there were some initial delays, he and his team installed a beautiful driveway that exceeded our expectations. Jeremy has a good eye for the design, installing a double boarder and herringbone pattern that is the envy of the neighborhood. He is a really nice guy and we highly recommend him."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

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

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

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.
