"We had a leaky sprinkler system that we could not use. My husband is just too old to work on it because of his bad knees and feet. Mo came out and figured it all out and it’s running beautifully now and at a reasonable price as well. I want him to come back and try and run a line through my back 40 that the previous owner hacked through and rendered useless. He also does garden lighting. The prospect is very exciting. Super nice guy and he knows what he’s doing. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾"

"Arrived when they said they would be there. Very good work ethic completed the project on schedule. Price agreed upon was 1000s less than other contractors for the same quality material. Would and have recommended them to others who have asked about our new fence"

"We wanted a boat launch put in and Travis from K&E excavating came to our rescue. He was with us every step of the way, keeping us informed and answering all our questions. He truly cares about his clients, and it shows in the meticulous work he does. He doesn't cut corners to make a dollar, but goes out of his way to make his customers happy. And his prices are very reasonable. Travis is very dependable, a man of his word, and gets the job done. It took all of 5 days from start to finish of our project and when they left you could not tell they were ever here.. I highly recommend K&E Contracting for all your excavating needs."

"Texted me exactly what time he was coming and a follow up text how far he wad snd estimated time of arrival. My only criticism is at the time I was paying him he tried to ask for a higher price saying that he made a mistake with his quote although he accepted the price which he originally quoted. I did ask him twice when setting up the appointment about the original quote snd he said that the amount was correct. It was a little upsetting to have that conversation at the time of the dumpster delivery"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

  • Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover

You should avoid planting grass, shrubs, plants, and trees in freezing temperatures, as the ground can get frozen and become too hard for proper root growth. It’s best to plant in the fall to allow your plants to establish root systems before the first frost. Landscaping when the average temperature in your area is between 50 and 60 degrees will usually deliver the best results.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.
