"Dan was very professional. He was easy to deal with. He cleaned up everything after himself even out into the hall. I needed some fast service and he made sure he got to my project the very next morning. He is someone I would like to have come back to home and do other projects. I highly recommend this company."

"They did an excellent job of cleaning up. My yard looks really wonderful right now, but they've got to come back and lay the landscape Escape Fabric and The Mulch, but they did such a great job. Everything they've done so far. I'm sure they'll do a good job on the fabric of the most. I mean, they're just really hard workers and really pleasant. Really nice to work with, I just sort of, never had a nicer group of people work for me. And especially Sante Luna. He's just such a delight. He's just very patient with an 81-year-old lady and explains things. And he's just wonderful. I said that he they have a lot of services, and I will be happy to use them over and over because they're so outstanding. They're hard workers and do a great job. They just do absolutely. They're high, very hard workers. They do a great job. They're very pleasant in Ba They're very reasonably priced. And they have. They do many things, so I will have them back over and over because they are so good. And I'm so excited to find them a widow and, I need help with my yard and they do everything imaginable. So praise God that I found them."

"Excellent communication and a quick response for our quote! Brennan is professional but also makes you feel super comfortable and relaxed as he has a chill demeanor. We called other companies for this project too and none of them were anywhere near as communicative as NMT. Highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.
