"They did a great job creating a gravel pad for our camper! He was able to complete the job just a few days after my first conversation with him. He was very easy to work with, very patient with my many texts, happy to troubleshoot some different ideas with us and offered professional and knowledgeable advice. I would gladly hire him again and would highly recommend him to others."

"I thought the crew of Richardson construction did a great job of building the site pad for my new house. There was a good amount of dirt to be moved and making a hill flat was going to be challenging. They communicated well with me on things that needed to happen and any request made by me was made easy. There was a main power utility pole needing moved in this project and all went smoothly and timely. I was impressed with their skills and judgment on how my building site needed to be shaped. I would recommend them to anyone."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
