"PJC Construction did a fantastic job replacing our backyard wooden fence. Phillip, the owner, was professional throughout the entire process. He communicated regularly and his crews showed up on time and produced quality work. They did such a great job I hired the company again to screen in my back patio and build a backyard deck, which turned out great as well! This company has become my first choice for any home project I will need help with in the future."

"We have been in my home for 17 years. The backyard did not look like it did when they were done. Our backyard is bigger. Josh and Alan made our yard look amazing! We had so much overgrowth it was unreal, and it looked like it was going to engulf our home. The backyard was never easy to mow, and it always had this small look to it from the design of the development company. It was cluttered looking. See we had shopped around for a while and were not pleased with what we ran into. We put in a search at Home Advisor and they popped up. We are so incredibly happy with our selection of Gordonâ s Southern Land Management. They are Pleasant, Professional and a breath of fresh air to speak with. They arrived on time when they said and taught us so much about our land. They were not bothered by my questions about the equipment or about certain areas in my yard. My husband laughed at me because I was like a kid at Christmas watching them work. They did exactly what we discussed in our 1st consultation, but to me they did so much more. They are also highly informative and explained so much to me about my yard, even gave me visions for the yard. The Goat was amazing to watch at work ( not a real goat)! The best way I could explain my back yard was a wild area, a Jungle. Josh and Alan came in trimmed, shaved, cleared, and leveled a working canvas of opportunities for us to create our dream backyard. As I gaze upon my finished yard, I cried because it is so beautiful, and in the time of COVID-19 I can find peace and serenity in my backyard away from the world. I can never say it enoughâ Thank You So Much Josh and Alan for everything you both have done.â I would and have recommended people to them and will continue to do so! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us back our backyard. I promise to take care of it. Ms. Cheryl"

"Ben trimmed plants , Remove debris . Removed weeds, applied fertilizer. Other jobs I needed help with. He was always on time, worked quickly, and always happy and fun. I recommend him to several friends in Del Webb who really liked the work he did for them. Any business would be fortunate to have him."

"We were so fortunate when PJC Construction responded to our need. They are super to work with. We wanted one person to do every project we were planning including painting kitchen cabinets, bedroom, installing flooring, installing kitchen counter tops, back splash and French door. And for our next project of a concrete slab with a pole barn. Reliable and excellent work. Would highly recommend them!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

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.
