"Alex did a marvelous job cleaning out an area where my AC and pool equipment are located. It had overgrown weeds. He removed all the weeds, laid down tarp and placed pretty rocks there. Looks much cleaner and neater. He is very professional and price is very reasonable."

"This was a hard removal. It was a cement surface over my concrete pool deck. It had to be removed with an industrial size grinder that looked like a big floor polisher. The work was dirty and dusty but at the end of the day and throughout the job, it was being continuously cleaned and dry vacuumed. Every evening (it took 5 days) the completed areas had been cleaned and left neatly. They moved my furniture, my plants, everything and then returned it. Hire them. They are already hired for another project. Highly recommend without hesitation."

Small jobs welcome

"I'll start with the positive points: Anthony pulled the permit as promised, even taking the county-required encroachment form to the correct location at the Broward County Courthouse. He started the job when promised, and at my request saved the sod that was dug up so I could move it to the back yard. He held to the contract, charging exactly the amount in it, no more, no less. However, the job, which Anthony initially told me would take a maximum of 2 weeks, took a month to the day to complete. Anthony wanted to start the job 2 days after a major flooding event in my city, during which my entire property had been under water for about 24 hours. I expressed concern about this, but Anthony insisted it would not be a problem. He then came out and began tearing out my old driveway. He worked approximately half the day before cutting out saying that his equipment (bobcat) couldn't get any traction in the still wet earth. The final job looks anything but professional. It has 3 or 4 different textures applied to the concrete and a pronounced change of height in the slab where the first load of concrete ended and the second began. The edges are not straight. Rather than pouring the sidewalk separately like every other contractor who did this type of work in my neighborhood, he poured the sidewalk at the same time and simply cut it out with a concrete saw. He did not remove whole sections of the sidewalk, but cut out the old sidewalk at the edges of the driveway. There are footprints all over the driveway and sidewalk where he walked on them before the concrete was set. He managed to splash concrete all over my garage door in the process. Finally, he did not manage to do the one thing that I was insistent on from the beginning: my finished driveway pools water at the end near the street. When I asked him about all these deficiencies, his answer was, "No job is perfect"."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

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.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
