"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."

"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 questions, answered by experts

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.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.
