"Excellent contractor . Will never use any other but them. They had ethics and provided a detailed explanation of the work they would be performing. They lived up to my expectations. My driveway looks great and other repairs that were done exceeded my expectations . Can’t say enough good about this company! The work was done in the timeframe they specified. They did what they said they would do and did it when they said they would as well. Again, they will remain my contractor going forward for any future needs."

"We searched for a long while before we found this contractor. The owner of the company is a true professional. They always showed up on time and completed my job in great time despite extremely cold winter temperatures. I must say the work that they did was excellent and my seawall is now the envy of the entire neighborhood. We will certainly be using this contractor in the future. He's very good, so his schedule gets busy quickly."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

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.
