"I reached out to Terrain Solutions Group inquiring about clearing my land to prepare it for building and I can honestly say they were incredible. From the initial phone call to the completion of the job, every aspect was professional and made so easy. I spoke with Peter and he was able to answer all of our questions and help us out with things we did not know as well. I would HIGHLY recommend this company"

"R.T. installed water catch basins under my downspouts and in other areas for proper yard drainage. He also dug trenches and ran underground drainage pipes to discharge excess rain water into the pond and canal next to my house. He did a great job! My house had water intrusion due to poor grading around the foundation and the yard. R.T. helped me come up with a plan to solve the problem. He was honest, hardworking, and conscientious! He is also knowledgeable and good at solving unexpected problems that come up during the excavation. Would definitely recommend him."

"I met with Steven from California Palms Landscaping to discuss my landscaping project. Just a few hours later I was sent a detailed and comprehensive quote for what my project would cost me, he even made suggestions that actually saved me money. His crew arrived on the date and time scheduled and did an OUTSTANDING job of converting my dried-out front lawn into a beautiful drought-tolerant and environmentally friendly landscape. They completed their work on time, on budget and cleaned up at the end of each dayâ s work. I definitely will use their services again; I have a backyard to rehabilitate!"

"H & P Fencing did an excellent job on our fencing project. The drop down only let me select one type of job however they did more than just one job. They site prepped, installed barbed wire, woven wire, wood portions of fencing, and hung gates. They helped us put in watering stations and fencing that were in compliance with USDA standards. They were clean in their work and didn’t leave behind a mess when the job was completed. They are a professional, efficient, and kind crew. Highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

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.
