"Dawn came the same day to assess my needs. I had an appointment very quickly and had my pressure washing and porch cleaning done in a very timely and efficient manner. I will definitely use COPPS again for future projects. I am already putting together my next project. You cannot go wrong with the fair pricing and the promptness of this company. I highly recommend them!!!"

"My kitchen remodel was a total gut job with slight appliance relocations. Ricky and Chad were present everyday from start to finish and this was a very large project. They specialize in perfection and take pride in the outcome. I will hire them for any future home projects. Awesome business and team."

"This was a full backyard makeover. Chris tore out an old, overgrown garden bed, including the bricks and a spiky little lemon tree. He fixed some old pavers that were caving in around our pool overflow drain, dug out old sod and weeds and cleared out miscellaneous yard debris. He took great care to make sure the yard was level and graded properly for drainage before laying weed barrier and gravel ahead of the artificial turf to finish the project. And now our yard is beautiful and usable again! We love it! Chris was very professional and communicated expectations. The work was done on time and is exactly what we wanted."

"We hired Jeremy to do an extensive yard cleanup. Him and his wife, Tammy, not only did a fantastic job, but also offered to fix our fence, gates and we asked if they would do the mulching. They didn't hesitate to add this job. They bought the mulch for us and spread it over several of the areas we asked. Our yard looks amazing. They charged a very fair and reasonable price and left our yard looking better than ever. My husband and I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing any type of landscaping work. They are truly the best."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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 cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

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.
