We take great pride our experience, expertise, quality and customer service that we provide to meet the consumers' needs. It is our mission to provide excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction from start to completion of a project. order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"This contractor is HORRIBLE. I hired them based on Angie's list recommendation and the really good reviews. BIG MISTAKE! I hired Black Rock Renovations (Javier LaRue) to build a shadow box cedar fence and it was a nightmare. One major thing Mr. LaRue did was place the posts outside the fence line, changing the entire look of the fence. He did this without consulting with me. He also cut the pickets at the bottom of the fence different lengths, he left holes where pickets should have been and did not cut the wood correctly leaving it looking very sloppy. There were several pickets that were used to build the fence that were split and damaged. When I asked him to fix the fence posts to match the shadow box design I paid for, he said that I would have to pay for it. I was already paying him over $7000 for the fence so I asked for a discount since he wasn't willing to fix his mistake on his dime. He told me he would give me 5% off the labor cost which would have been $150 but only if I leave him a 5-star review. He also left my neighborâ s side of the fence undone for over a week not saying anything to me about needing to finish it. As far as he told me the fence was complete. I had to email him several times, call, and text him and meet with him in person to show him the mistakes that needed to be fixed before I paid him for the job. He felt he did the fence correctly and often argued with me even after I showed him the major mistakes he made. He also threatened to file a mechanics lien on my property if I hired another contractor to fix his mistakes without paying him the rest of the money. Mr. LaRue's company is only two years old, and it shows. He makes promises that he doesn't keep and then denies later that he made. He speaks professionally and carries himself well, which is another reason I felt that using him was a good choice. Donâ t be fooled. Donâ t make the mistake I made. He will send someone to do a sloppy job and he will not care what you think about it. I am stuck with a fence that I paid over $7,000 for that does not look the way it is supposed to look nor is it built with the quality and standards that you would expect a fence costing over $7,000 to be."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

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.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
