Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"They had a big job to do in removing a huge maple tree and were to remove the stump and haul away the debris. It ended up they left the tree stump debris and a friend removed it for me but found after removing the debris that the company hadnâ t fully removed the stump per our agreement. I have tried to contact them but have heard nothing back. I had appreciated that they came out quickly and got the tree down in a day. So they did a good job with that. I am just not happy that they didnâ t finish the job of the stump removal."

"They waited for the proper time of year for the oak tree, and did an excellent job trimming that oak tree when the tree was in pretty rough condition. They also did an excellent job on a locust tree that was in a difficult position next to a shed and the neighbor's house and over a chain link fence. Both area's were cleaned up very well after the job was complete. The price was also very competitive. "

Titan Excavating is your local company you can trust. We have all the equipment necessary for any job you could ask for. No job too big or too small for us. We do everything from site clearing , driveways, grading , demolition and much more. We service a 100 mile radius and are open to working within the entire state. If you need us call today.

"Titan did a magnificent job on my property during the past week. I needed the following done: Grading work on my 3 acre property and three different types of rocks delivered. I also needed additional black dirt brought in to make it perfect. From start to finish the communication was excellent with Will. He let me know what time they would get to my job and everything that was going on during the work process. This is something that a lot of contractors just fail to do in my past experiences. They provide top notch equipment, with many different attachments for various types of jobs during the entire process. This ensures that the job is done correctly, the first time! Lastly, customer service could not be better. They (Will and Tim) stayed with the job until I was completely satisfied. Always keeping a great attitude no matter how many questions I asked. Even going the extra nine yards finishing the job better than I expected. "

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While your municipality may have its own regulations requiring pergolas or other structures to be a certain height above a fire pit, the standard recommendation is that the pergola should be at least 10 feet above the fire pit. A taller pergola allows the heat from the flames to dissipate before reaching the structure.

If you are installing a fiberglass pool, you may want to install or update your patio or deck at the same time to create a safe, comfortable place to sit and dry off or grab a bite to eat after swimming. You might also consider adding a hot tub to the mix, which costs $6,000 on average.

Yes, many providers offer design consultations to create unique structures. Confirm with your contractor.

Pergolas and similar overhead outdoor structures will typically be subject to building code regulations. Every municipality is different, and some may have specs or permit requirements, so it’s important to double-check. Some HOAs may also have restrictions on what you can build, so be sure to check with your HOA as well (if applicable).

Although dependent on the type and size of lumber, most 2-by-4-by-8-foot pieces of lumber cost anywhere from $3 to $6. Softwood lumber like pine falls on the lower end of the spectrum, while hardwood lumber like oak or walnut falls on the higher end. Different retailers and lumber yards can also vary in price, so it helps to shop around to compare prices.
