"We called and booked this company for snow removal. Told me paying thru Angi made things ?more difficult because they pay to advertise and get hit with fees for doing work?. I was not thrilled with this comment but it was getting late in the afternoon with freezing weather and more snow possible. Between a rock and and hard ice ball for sure. Live and learn. He comes rolling up 25 minutes late in a large truck with a white bobcat type tractor on the trailer for 6 inches (max) of snow to be removed on a double car garage. (Two single unit doors). I told him specifically I had an appointment (cardiology follow up) at certain time. I usually never leave workers alone to do the work for the very reason of Wed hat happened. Not only was he late, He left over 10 blade marks on the driveway, which were unable to be removed with power washing this summer. On the north door he plowed through the garage door?s metal facing & into the wood frame of the house. It was ?repaired? (covered to not notice it just by a quick peek by the metal being turned back into placement) but the wood gouge wasn?t going away. The southern door was also bumped with the blade?s tooth but left only a small dent. Only when outside looking at the garage would someone notice the damage. It wasn?t there before and weirdly fit a bobcat tooth, I didn?t see the damage when I paid thru Venmo, He never said anything about damaging the facings of the garages or driveway.. Iit still hasn?t been repaired because it?s too small of a job (even with the garage pros). He showed up late , left our home damaged, and took $50 off the $200 charge (because it only took 15 minutes). Unbeknownst to us about the damage, which is going to cost way more than $50 to replace. I marked both facings at snow level and the damages were at those exact heights. Asked about the mark.. Didn?t exactly deny but never responded afterward to any texts. I watched him remove 3 buckets of snow on the lower driveway, very quickly and somewhat recklessly. I talked to him before I had to leave. I warned him not the get too close with the cat blade to the garage because the snow wasn?t close to the garage. Added to be careful and to slow down. He said I was just working my way up to the highest snow before the sun dropped begins the houses. Late afternoon winter appointment leaves early sunsets but he had plenty of time to do the work before it was even dusk. FYI, he mentioned his company wasn?t doing small landscaping anymore and focusing on major jobs now. Precise? Not exactly precise or honest. Would not hire the company again. Would rather have the heart attack that started when shoveling two shovels worth than to hire this company for anything again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

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.

The cost to drill a well ranges, but for a well that’s roughly 150 feet deep, you could spend approximately $5,500. However, prices can fluctuate substantially due to factors like geological conditions, local regulations, and variations in drilling methods. For a more precise quote tailored to your location, research local well-drilling professionals in your area.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.
