"First class all the way! Professional, highly competent and fair. Will recommend John to anyone I know. I had a well leak and a prior firm came out and gave me an outrageous quote for a solution that would not have addressed the problem. I reached out to Conex to do excavation to better assess the problem and not only did he get out quickly to do the excavation he was also able to diagnose and fix the issue at a lower cost."

"As a new homeowner, I have had so many contractors try to get the best of me when they see I still have a lot to learn.  I met with 4 or 5 other plumbers before John Harris, and it felt like a fresh breeze had come through. 
Super friendly when I first called in the morning, he offered to meet with at my house to take a look around that very same day in the evening.  He even did some research of his own volition, calling the city to find out where the city sewer line measurements were in my back alley since I told him I had a main sewer line issue.  He came prepared and happy to explain exactly what he would do to replace the sewer line, which was something I really appreciated. 
Anytime I contacted John, he responded literally within a couple of minutes.  He came by in person to sign a contract for the job, which he wrote up in detail to the terms we had discussed.  On top of all that, he moved up the date of the job sooner when I told him the sewage back-up had gotten worse unexpectedly.  On the day of the job John and his company showed up on time and completely prepared for work.  They somehow broke up my concrete sidewalk, excavated the old cast iron sewer pipe and laid new PVC pipe across my entire backyard in just 6 hours (I thought it would take all day)!  They cleaned up after the new pipe was buried, and they were as careful as possible while moving around large pieces of concrete.  They made sure to show me how the water was flowing through, and I felt so relieved and confident the sewage would now be leaving my house without any issues.
BOTTOMLINE: John Harris is a rare find in a sea of tradesmen who either don't know or care about what they are doing.  He takes pride in doing good work.  He is intelligent and caring, and won't rip you off.  Calling him for any plumbing job will be something you wish you had done sooner!

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.
