"After having some pretty bad rains in the Baltimore area and my tenants informing me that the basement was leaking i searched out a few different companies and found MJ Home Services they have incredible reviews everywhere. Melissa was great and so were the guys that did the work. They sent me pictures over throughout the entire process and everything was done through email which made it so much easier for me. So far so good there's no leaking and my tenants are extremely happy . I would definitely hire MJ Home Services again."

"They responded quickly and fixed the pipe. The work was fine but a little expensive. My only reservation was price, but it has been a while, so I don't feel I can answer other questions about the company with a lot of confidence."

"We were having the worst time just getting our 2 acres mowing. No big deal right? Wrong. Jim the owner of ACE responded to me immediately, and sent 2 very personable and responsible young men to help us. Story short, outstanding job. Take my word for this. After 9 years of outside bulls**t, I know how?poorly it can be done. Great job."

"Excellent service. We had slow drains in the house and needed to see if the sewer line needed cleaned out. Technicians were very thorough and determined that a clean out was not necessary. Very honest people and were very professional."

"The whole experience was outstanding from Mark explaining what could be done and providing a great estimate to Curtis and his crew who did an excellent job utmost professionalism. They had to change the original design and added an extra filtration system at no additional cost. Overall I could not have asked for a better experience. I was under a time constraint and Mark and his crew came through. Thank you so much. I highly recommend the Pond Doctor"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

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.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.
