"Russell and his crew were top notch and professional from estimate to job completion. It's challenging to find a contractor that is flexible, responsive, and expert at what they do and they exceeded all of our expectations. They did a large excavation project on our front yard that set the table for a follow on large landscaping project and they executed the work beyond requirements. His team were even sweeping our driveway that they barely used at the completion of work! We will be using them for upcoming masonry work because we've seen all we need to see from Russell and his excellent crew. It's a rare opportunity for us to speak so glowingly about a contractor or craftsman and we're glad to do it."

"Diego and his crew did a great job! This was a large 1,200 square foot patio area renovation that included a paver patio, pea gravel patio, grass (sod), cobblestones and a new privacy fence. I then hired him to mulch the property (20 yards). He came when he said he would, cleaned up and got the whole project done in a little over a week. Highly recommend!!"

"Rony and his team are fantastic. They did a complete overhaul of my lawn from soil to sod, trimmed trees and added hardscape. It looks fantastic. Price was reasonable. Crews were great. Work was done FAST. And they accommodated my last minute changes. These days, every home service pro is super busy and stretched thin. I am so glad I was patient and waited for Rony and his team."

"I have hired Justin of Lariviere Construction LLC multiple times and have always been completely satisfied. He always comes in on budget (or under) and always goes above and beyond what I hire him to do - hyper focused on customer satisfaction. Which these days is a HUGE deal for me! I am President of a 4 unit townhouse complex and Justin is our go to guy for anything the property requires."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

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.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
