"PJC construction are pros when it comes to installing wood fencing. Professional, honest, reasonable, and always prompt. Phillip was always there to answer any questions or concerns. They had to cut back a few over grown trees to install the fence. I was very hesitant to cutting the trees back. I'm so glad I agreed. It drastically improved the appearance of the yard!! I got quotes from several installers. Iam so happy we chose PJC Construction. Thanks guys, from two greatful customers."

"Untavious did a fantastic job with our mobile home demolition, gave a reasonable quote and got the work done quicker than expected. He even took care of some extra jobs clearing some roots and small trees for us while on site, and quoted us for a gravel driveway. I highly recommend Ingram Clearing and Landscaping and will certainly be working with them for future projects."

"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

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

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.
