"My family experienced water and wind damage earlier this year. We had to be placed in a hotel. After reaching out to numerous companies, we chose Maynor construction. I am glad we did!! If it wasnâ t for Maynor and his staff, I wouldnâ t have made it. The process was long and depressing because of being away from home. However Maynor and his staff reassured me. They showed patience with me and worked hand and hand with my insurance company with getting my home repaired in a timely manner. Thank you Maynor! I truly feel like we are family!"

"We had a drainage issue in an area that was seeping in to our pole barn, which is a small and narrow area. Mitchell came and advised us on a solution which included grading a two vehicle parking area as well as the area beside the barn. Mitchell was very accommodating with working within our budget. He was so very friendly and professional the whole job. We are very satisfied with the outcome of his services. Would definately hire him again and guarantee you will not be disappointed when hire him for your project. Thank you Mitchell."

Customers say: Quick response

"Since moving to Indiana, I’ve had two other companies working on my yard. It was a complete mess. For the past couple of years, I’ve seen Larry’s sign (he happens to live just around the corner), and thought “what the heck. I’ve already spent $$ what’s a little more.” Well, God sent me an angel. Larry is everything that the previous reviewers have said and more. Yard looks beautiful, grass is finally growing under the tree. You absolutely cannot go wrong in hiring Rocksolid, Larry, and his crew. P.S. I will be dropping my present snow removal company and hiring Larry for the job."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.
