"Just recently had a 48in x 48in egress window installed in our basement. The 2 gentlemen, Caleb & Graham were nothing short of awesome. I'm a retired carpenter and I can say their craftsmanship was second to none. Clean, precise. I was enjoying the perfect gape in our foundation and the framework even before they installed the window, because it was being done properly. Heck, even the hole they dug for the well was precise. Both Caleb & Graham were very friendly, communicative and courteous. Would use again and highly recommend."

We are family owned sewer & water installation/repair business servicing the Western Suburbs of Minneapolis. We are licensed (Master Plumber License #58978PM), bonded and insured with over 30 years experience. We use the latest technologies for BOTH sewer (Sewer Lining - CIPP) & water, and we are trained to know your plumbing from toilet/faucet to sewer/water main in the street. We have specialized equipment to unthaw frozen waterlines.

"Highview Plumbing repaired my sewer line. The line was broken as a result of tree roots that infiltrated the pipe. Highview Plumbing fixed the pipe by installing a cured in place pipe (CIPP). Highview did a great job with the installation and left virtually no trace once they were finished. The inside of my house was as clean as when they first arrived (no mean feat given all of the rain and mud on my lawn that day) and they left the driveway and lawn spotless when they finished the job. I enthusiastically recommend Highview Plumbing. They are very knowledgeable, courteous and extraordinarily diligent in their work. If you are looking for someone to install a CIPP pipe, look no further."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

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.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.
