"We are new homeowners and had a hole in our septic tank made of concrete block, which was sending wastewater into the foundation/basement of the home. It was my first time using Angie's List, and I would recommend Illinois Sewer and Drain to anyone. Joe and his team of experts solved our issue immediately at an affordable price. They even went above and beyond to install a sump pump in our basement to help with the rain water. Quality work!!"

"I received at least 3 estimates from Angie. Dan from AKDK followed up right away and was the most specific and fair in his estimate. He started on the day he said, came promptly each time he said he was coming, and worked with my tenant's schedule. The men worked hard at several different indoor commercial projects, dealing with unique in- the- field challenges. The project consisted of drop ceilings, new lighting and switches, some wiring, moving walls (drywall and plaster), flooring, electrical, painting, etc. They performed each job well, to my satisfaction. The men cleaned up after each day with their own equipment (previous contractors used some of my tools and broke my vacuum!). I was so pleased, I actually looked for other projects I had been putting off for them to take care of. I highly recommend Dan and AKDK Services. When the job is complete, I will be looking into their cleaning services as well. How refreshing! I have owned several properties over the years and have experienced several service providers, some so happy to get rid of. AKDK stands apart. Thank you, Dan! (I will say I did not know them beforehand and received no renumeration for this review)."

"Jerry and Brian have done my snow removal for several years now. They are always on top of everything. They arrive early, clear all snow and disturb no grass or plantings. Just perfectly clean parking and driving areas. Great people to work with!"

"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!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

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.
