"Door and frame both needed aligning in which a cold draft was evident, thought I may need a new door and frame. Gary promptly returned my call, willing to come out on Sunday, and was on time. Assessed the situation over the phone and online, reaffirmed on site, and promptly went to about his repair, allowed me to inspect, and cleaned up the work area. SUPERB JOB!! Highly recommend G and G to anyone who requires quality craftsmanship on just about any property needs. He does it all, from rough carpentry, painting, flooring and carpentry. We will be hiring Gary for our next home project."

"Daniel and his team did an amzing job replacing our worn out lawn with beautiful Zorro Zoysia. From my first phone call requesting an estimate and throughout the entire project, Daniel and his team were clear and concise with their communications and professional with all aspects of the install. We couldn't be happier with the results. No surprises, just 5 STAR service!"

The team was professional, efficient, and clearly experienced at what they do. They showed up on time, completed the job safely and thoroughly, and left the area clean afterward. I was really impressed with their work and would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of tree services. Great service all around!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.
