"They built a 12â x16â wood deck. I wish now that I would have specified putting rock or a weed barrier under it. I fear I will have weeds growing through the gaps. But Steven, his crew, and his wife Brittany were all great people. The job only took two days and his rate was very fair."

"They did a great job started on time. And finished on time did quite a bit of scraping, and picked up all the paint chips did some repair to the soffits and straightened those out. And took care of the woodwork. Did a good detailed job with making sure the paint didn't get over on the roof drip edge."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.
