"Before I did this review I called this company multiple times to try to resolve my issue. Never did anyone ever call me back. I had worked with Nathan K. during the repipe due to some issue with how they performed the repipe. He corrected my issue and I was happy with the finished look. At the same time they were repiping my home the HVAC unit went out 10/6/2024. I asked if they would give a quote to replace this unit ($10,145.00) I approved to replace it. This is where the problems have been going forward with HVAC system. Whom ever installed the my system was not experienced or just had poor workmanship (per second HVAC company opinion). First issue was in December 2024 I got a power bill for my vacant home that was still being repaired from my slab leak for almost $400.00. I called Her and His about this. Nathan K. Called me and said they were no longer in the HVAC service since my install (This is not my problem its HER and His). He hired another company to come out and correct the installation mistake (apparently emergency heat would never cut off once the heat pump shut off). He never told me what they did to correct it. I asked him the help me with the $400.00 power bill since it was their fault. He said he would but never did anything about it. Going forward to September 2025. I have been try to sell or lease my home for 9 months (so no one is living in my home) with no luck. Finally I have a lease on it. The clients move in and start using HVAC system. 4 days later they call and said there is a water leaking up in my garage and back bed room floors. You can imagine how I feel at this point I got a sick feeling in my stomach (My I remind you I spent over $23,000 dollars with Her and His Plumbing to repair my home). We figured the leak was coming from HVAC system (This system is only 11 months old). So I called another HVAC company to come out. They found out the system was under charged with freon and the system was freezing up causing excessive condensation flow which flowed over the drip pan. Also they found ducting is not properly sealed at the supply plenum with no mastic tape, the platform was not leveled (this caused my floors to get wet) and NO PERMIT WAS PULLED FOR THE INSTALL OF HVAC TO LAKE COUNTY. We did do a permit for plumbing. What I want is accountability from this company to pay and fix my unit correctly? I have been patiently waiting for someone from this company to call but guess they got their money and they going to screw me. I am beyond ****** right now. The right thing to do is fix my issues ASAP. FYI, I am not going to let this go!!!!!!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

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.

It takes two to three hours to trench 100 feet with a mechanical trencher or 10 to 12 hours if digging with a shovel. The total time to dig a trench depends on the depth, width, soil type, terrain, trencher type, and your level of experience. Digging in clay or rocky soil takes longer than soft ground.  

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.
