"I recently hired SolBreeze Services to install lights for our basketball court, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The team was professional, efficient, and completed the job to perfection. They took the time to understand our specific needs and ensured the lighting was both functional and well-placed. The quality of the work was excellent, and the court looks amazing at night. I highly recommend SolBreeze Services for any lighting installation needs – they truly exceeded our expectations!"

"We're very happy with the service we got from Alberto and his team! Alberto was prompt to respond and came out to give a free estimate the next day. We had our arbor vitae hedge planted 4 days later--a much faster timeline than others we talked to. The planting went smoothly, and Alberto took the time to feed and water the trees thoroughly to ensure they start off right. We'll definitely be contacting Alberto's Landscaping with any future landscaping needs!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

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.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
