"The project was far more involved than just septic repair. Our house was built in the fifties and had serious drainage and grey water problems as well. Darin was able to make the repairs, grade the yard and install new drainage lines for the gutters as well as replace the old pipes and clean out the septic system. It was a huge project that required a wide range of skills including digging new lines, tree removal, plus excavation and grading. We were very pleased with the work and the results. It was also great watching the dynamics with Tripp and Rider his two sons who were both hard working, followed directions well and always hustled. We have since hired DTR for other projects including more grey water lines and grading of our cabin , building a boat ramp at the creek at our campsite and then building an entire addition including a ll aspects of building a retaining wall and construction of our commercial kitchen including everything from electrical and plumbing to interior walls using FRP panels on the walls and ceiling which is a difficult project to do correctly as it has no nails or screws and is done with adhesive. All projects have been extraordinarily well done and we have been very happy with the work and the follow up afterwards. Each of these projects deserves its own review. I think the best review is when you hire them again. Highly recommended"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

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.

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.

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.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
