"5 stars!! Could not have been happier with the work performed in my house. Jason went beyond all of my expectations. All of the work was completed on time and professionally. Jason discussed the entire project, in detail, with me before we began. I could not find a fault with any portion of the work. I highly recommend A New Look Construction for any carpentry."

"I texted Bonifacio of RRR and sent pictures about my furniture repair and he came over the very next day to check it out in person and give me an estimate. Two days later the work was done. He arrived in a timely fashion, and did an excellent job. He was very tidy during the repair process and made sure everything was cleaned and back in its place when he left. I would definitely recommend him for upholstered furniture repair. He did an excellent job."

"Blend and his team finished a big demo & haul away job in half a day. We had a 30+ year old deck and gazebo with wood rot in our backyard that desperately needed to go. He and his guys dismantled everything down to the soil and left without a trace of debris. Plus they carefully preserved our electrical connection. I highly recommend the Ferreti team for demo and junk removal, they were friendly and communicative throughout the job as well. 5 stars!"

"My chimney collapsed into my attic from a recent tornado. David reviewed the project on a Friday and was able to fit me in the schedule that following Monday morning. He was on time for both the review and the project and even communicated over the weekend on timing and procedure. He was able to get the chimney out of the attic quickly and hauled everything away. Very hard working! Great job!! I highly recommend his services."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.

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.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.
