"Over this was a terrible experience. Landscaper showed up when he wanted to. Yard was flagged and painted with spray paint to mark buried lines. Took landscaper so long it had to be reflagged and marked a total of 3 times. Landscaper hired another concrete company to replace old patio and steps. Was replaced with a much much smaller oddly shaped patio. No stamping which was discussed. Concrete company also replaced front step with an oddly shaped sidewalk. They literally threw and broke many pavers they removed all over the back yard leaving myself to move out of the way. Contractor literally threw a temper tantrum when he almost cut a buried cable line left and refused to return until yard was reflagged again. Brought in a heap of dirt and left right in mid of the front yard, it was there for so long weeds and grass were growing in it. Most eroded away to the end of the driveway leaving a muddy mess. "

As the owner, I have been in the dirt business since 1998. I have always worked for larger companies like Dondlinger Construction. I have been a supervisor for these companies for 13 years. In October of 2019 I decided to go out on my own. I really enjoy meeting new people and taking care of their needs. Some of the things we do are: grading, excavating, rock driveways, drainage correction, waterproof basement walls, install culvert pipes.

"I had to hire someone else to finish the job. The person on the other end of text messaging just wanted to argue. No interest in coming out to see the site. Will not use again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenching is not the same as boring. Boring uses a drill to make a tunnel for underground utilities, but trenching involves digging with an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. Boring is more precise and expensive, and it’s best for installing utilities underneath buildings, roads, and bodies of water. Trenching is simpler but can cause more disruption to landscaping and ecosystems.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

To determine whether your homeowners' insurance will cover crawl space repair, consider the cause of the issue. Repair may be covered if the problems were caused by an event that the insurance covers, such as vandalism or a windstorm. However, companies won't cover the repair if the issues are caused by neglect or wear and tear.

The depth of a septic tank’s drain lines is between 18 and 36 inches underground. These pipes are filled with perforations and surrounded by sand, gravel, or a combination of both, as both materials help filter wastewater. While some pipes are buried closer to the surface, this can create problems unless the soil is compact and doesn’t shift much.
