"Bourke Remodeling has done beautiful work at my home. Theyâ ve been my main go to for many of my projects. Thanks to them i have a lovely brick patio, a picture window, and a great walk in shower! They are super reliable very reasonably priced and always communicated very well ! At the moment theyâ re doing a desperately needed foundation upgrade on my older home I highly recommend them and am extremely happy with how all of my home projects have turned out."

"These guys did a fantastic job, very professional and clean. They were able to renovate both floors on my two family home within my budget and in a timely fashion. Handled everything from top to bottom, full clean out, gut bathrooms and kitchen, completely transformed the place. Couldn’t be happier with the finish product. Would recommend and hire again!"

"Tyler Gibbons and his crew are the ultimate professionals. Tyler was very responsive and came out to view the worksite more than once to make sure he was giving us the best quote possible. He worked with us on the pricing and materials and once the job started, he provided progress updates every step of the way. We love our new deck and would definitely hire TMP Property Maintenance again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.
