"The unused land next to our driveway was an eye sore, and the only thing separating the land from our driveway was rotted wood. We hired a surveyor to mark our property line and decided to grade that land and install a retaining wall. I am so glad we hired ODL. They worked within our budget and did a phenomenal job! They are a small family company, which further boosts their resume in respect to quality and care. They are professional, reliable, hardworking, and talented. I plan on hiring them to do the next phase of adding low growing plants in front of the wall. I strongly recommend hiring them. They do not disappoint."

"Matt is one of the best providers you will find on Angie's List. He initially came out to give me an estimate to solve the drainage issue in my back yard. He walked the property and came up with an effective plan to fix the problem. I had several provider come out to give estimates but Matt was the only one to lay out the plan he used. His price was also very competitive. When I called him back to contract him, he got me on the schedule quickly. Matt showed up the day of the job bright and early. The drainage system was put in quickly (much faster than I expected) and Matt walked the property with me after to explain what he did. After the drainage was completed, Matt mentioned he also did landscaping. I was planning to do the landscaping at a later time but Matt offered to give me an estimate that he would honor when the time came. I had some bushes that needed to come out and wanted to resod the front and back yard. I also wanted to change the plants in front of the house. Matt again laid out a plan and gave a great price. I decided to do the work right then. Again Matt showed up the day scheduled nice and early and got to work. Its worth noting that before Matt came back, it rained and I realized the drainage needed to be extended about 10 feet. Matt took care of that at no charge. He also was very receptive about minor changes to the landscaping plan and finished the entire project in 2 days. My lawn has never looked better and Matt's work has completely revitalized the look of my house. Thank you Matt for all your hard work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The depth of a septic tank’s drain lines is between 18 and 36 inches underground. These pipes are filled with perforations and surrounded by sand, gravel, or a combination of both, as both materials help filter wastewater. While some pipes are buried closer to the surface, this can create problems unless the soil is compact and doesn’t shift much. 

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.
