"They did an outstanding job of demolition and removal of my concrete pool and area. Tom explained in detail what was involved making sure that everything I wanted done was included. I was amazed at how quickly and carefully the work was accomplished. Remaining yard and driveway weren't torn up and yard mats were used. They graded and over-seeded with straw and grass was established before winter. Finished in 2 days!"

"I hired Pro Landscapes to demolish and remove an old shed in my backyard that was rotting and falling apart. Once I contacted them, the owner of the company reached out very quickly and set up an appointment to come and look at the shed. He was friendly and honest, he offered me the cheapest way possible to get the work done, he actually told me the more expensive job I had in mind probably wasn't the way to go, very honest. I am very happy with the work David's company did, they were fast, professional, and kind. And they even hauled away some trash for me that was not in the contract. I'd highly recommend this company for any yard or demolition projects, they will figure out a way to make the price fit the job. Thanks again!"

"Immediate quote, timely service, and good follow up. I will be using J&W for a few additional projects as well. The work on our porch to re point bricks and put in railings was immaculate. We are very satisfied with all aspects of working with this contractor."

"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."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

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.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

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.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.
