"Atlas tree Service did a terrific job digging a French drain, replacing a dead holly tree, and trimming up a large oak tree for me. The drain is working beautifully and the sod looks beautiful. I would recommend them highly."

"Jeff installed a paver walkway and also installed a stone border for our flower garden, and added plants. He was a pleasure to work with, had great suggestions and is very knowledgeable about plants and landscaping. I strongly recommend Jeff and plan to hire him again on future projects."

"Such a great experience from beginning to end! They helped repair a roof and rotted wood from a 35-40 foot high roof on a historic condominium building in Midtown Atlanta. There were a number of complicated logistics with equipment and custom cutting and installation. Final House are experts at what they do and can help you accomplish an array of complicated projects with ease."

"Joshua at Vision Hardscapes of Atlanta did a great job trimming my trees. He was able to stop by and drop off a quote so I didn't loose anytime at the office. His quote was very reasonable and I will definitely call them in the future."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

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.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching.
