"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."
"I highly recommend this company for any project you might need done. Our lot had to be cleared of 100 pine trees before the construction of our dream home could begin. They have done an amazing job in every phase of the construction, They have excellent work ethics and have kept in regular contact with us to make sure that everything is exactly how we want it to be, even when I changed my mind All of the subcontractors have done a great job in a very timely manner. They are courteous and professional, and truly seem to enjoy their work. Every detail of our new home is exactly how we wanted it and better, both inside and out. Except for a few minor things that I wanted added we knew exactly how much each thing would cost including the cost of my wants before doing them. We were right on budget. They told us that they built our home as though it were their own home. I rate them a 5 in every category and recommend them for any job, large or small"

"I cannot say enough good things about this land clearing service! From start to finish, the crew was professional, efficient, and incredibly thorough. They arrived on time with well-maintained equipment and got right to work, treating my property with care as if it were their own. What impressed me most was the attention to detail—not only did they clear the land exactly as requested, but they also made sure to remove debris, smooth out rough areas, and leave the site looking clean and ready for the next stage of my project. Communication was excellent throughout; I always knew what to expect and felt confident in their expertise. Their team worked quickly without cutting corners, and the results far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing land cleared. They delivered exceptional quality, fair pricing, and true professionalism every step of the way."
"I had MGT Enterprise to build me a 850 ft gravel driveway, installed 2 drain tiles for the water drainage, cleared off 2 acres and completely graded the land for my house to be built on, and cleared the land for my septic field. They called around and found the most reasonable prices for the job. When the owner gave me an estimate, everything was itemized just as I asked so I could understand what was being spent. MGT Enterprise was very responsive and gave me their professional opinions and described how they would perform all the work when they gave me a quote. Whenever I had questions, they immediately had answers even if I thought they were ridiculous, they never made me feel like I didnt know anything. They were very prompt with job timing and kept me informed through the whole process. They would not leave the job until I came out and they made sure I was 100% satisfied. I would recommend them to anyone who needs any excavation or work in that area."
"Brian was a pleasure to work with, he took time to explain all the options for the job at hand and executed the work as described. Highly recommended his service."
There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.
The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.
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.
Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
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.
