"Mike and his crew removed my old shrubs in the front of house and replaced them with nice low maintenance shrubs, placed stonework all the way across, and put down river rock. They trimmed the maple tree also. They buried my gutter to drain underground. I had a small brush pile behind my shed that they hauled off for me. They finished all of the work in 1 1/2 days! They were friendly, hard workers! They did a very professional job! I am very pleased with their service!!"

"Impressed by how very professional the entire team is. Placed an add for guttering to come and repair guttering that was incorrectly put on by original builder. Was immediately contacted, by Branch Out Gutters and a bid was given and scheduled an appointment within a week. The installation team was very professional and when they were finished the area was clean. I truly appreciate this company and will highly recommend them to anyone."

"Larry has done a variety of home repair projects for us over the past 4 years. He has had years of experience and can find a way to do almost anything! He is someone that we trust completely, which is why we keep asking him to come back. His work is excellent and he often provides money-saving tips and advice; leaving the final decision to the homeowner. He is not working full-time anymore, so if you're not in a major hurry for the work to be done, he will do a great job for you!"

"Tracy and his team designed and built a firepit and sitting wall, around our patio. We were impressed with the quality of work performed, the attention to detail and the results exceeded our expectations. As we move forward with other hardscape and landscape projects, Integrity will be our choice. Tracy truly is a "man of integrity" and he is deeply committed to providing the customer a quality project. I would highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

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.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.
