"I recently had TMG Capitol complete a sunroom addition to my home, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations! From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. The design process was collaborative, and they worked with me to ensure the sunroom perfectly matched the style of my home while maximizing natural light. The quality of materials and craftsmanship was top-notch, and the installation team was efficient, respectful, and kept the workspace clean throughout the project. What impressed me most was their adherence to the timeline and budget—no surprises or delays. Now, I have a beautiful, functional sunroom that has quickly become my favorite space to relax and entertain. I highly recommend TMG Capitol for any home addition projects; they truly delivered exceptional service and results."

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.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

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.
