We are known for our quality work and the integrity of our business. We look forward to building long term relationships with our clients, and guarantee your satisfaction.

"Right after they paved my driveway, I gave a great review. I should have given it a few years before reviewing, but that was my mistake. Six years later, different story. I now have multiple low spots that collect water when it rains, which means they didn't do the job correctly, and I'm seeing lots of cracks in the asphalt, all over my driveway. And after recently looking into it, I discovered that the minimum asphalt thickness for a driveway should be 3". His install was 2 1/2". I have it in writing. Sounds like cutting corners for some underhanded profit, to me. It really looks like it's going to have a shorter than normal lifespan. HUGE disappointment! Buyer beware!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

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.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

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.

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.
