"I submitted a quote for building up an area with soil to increase drainage. Then I wanted 3 Japanese Maples planted on top. These are trees that are a memorial for my brother that just passed away. So it was important to get them in the ground. Efrain called me right away, came to give me a quote that same evening. Then he was here the next day to do the job. He was fast and is a hard worker. We really appreciate his prompt attention. Thanks Efrain!!"

"I would highly recommend Kevin and his crew for concrete work. Kevin returned calls leading up to the day of project. The price was fair. The aspect of his work that impressed me most was how meticulous he and his crew were in planning and completing the work. I was able to closely observe the laying of a 4â x21â x9â concrete pad. Also he and his crew erected four 4â x6â x12â post that I will be using for my summer project of building an 9â x9â arbor. The time they took in be precise in the alignment was much appreciated. Highly , highly recommend Kevin and his crew."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.
