"King Level Construction does top notch work. From quotation to execution, Luis had us taken care of within 1 week. He demolished an existing concrete slab for us and poured a new 2 car parking pad. Luis made sure that we were satisfied with every part of the construction process, and we learned quite a bit from his expertise! The quality and value is unmatched. You will not be disappointed."

"NextGen Paving and Excavation LLC did an amazing job repairing and sealing my asphalt driveway. Jacob is a hard worker and very particular with his work, and it shows in the finished project. I had him remove and replace a section of damaged asphalt and he sealed my entire driveway. I am very happy with his results."

"Dave showed up, all 3 days, early (7am) and worked diligently. From time to time, my wife and I had questions regarding how to ideally improve aesthetics (ultimately resale value), Dave would provide detailed responses and patiently answer our amateur questions. When we didn't fully understand he took a minute to explain. From the get-go, Dave was flexible whether in the quoting process or construction phase. If you are like us, who care more about the outcome of the project rather than a fancy uniform, Dave is your excavator. Reasonable, experienced and reliable, we feel confident recommending Dave to our friends and families."

"Water damaged drywall in several areas of the home needed to be replaced along with the trim. After repair, all of the areas needed to be painted which included a large basement. I had them put in a pass through of a wall to connect two rooms and redirect our flow and provide natural light. All of the employees that I interacted with were very professional and detail oriented. My favorite employee is Oscar, who spent awhile with us and did all of the drywall and paint work. Great to have someone in your home that you trust!

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.
