"Outstanding customer service. Excellent communicator. Kept me informed about when he was available and actually offered to come a few days early since he finished another job. The job was to level a 30x40 area so I could install a large wooden swing set. There was about a 20" drop from front to back. He cut the back and filled the front so he didn't have to bring in any new fill or haul any away. This saved a lot of money. When he was done it was within a 1/2". He made sure by checking it with a rotating laser. He has new and well maintained equipment and state of the art tools. I've been in construction for 40 years. Believe me, this guy knows his stufff."

"We worked with Jared to renovate our laundry room and sunroom, which included adding them to our houseâ s HVAC, significant plumbing and electrical updates, adding cabinetry, as well as all new cosmetics (tile, paint, wallpaper, etc.) and appliances. We love how the space turned out and that it really feels like a cohesive part of our home now. Their work is high quality, and communication was clear with fast response time. We would definitely recommend!"

"Hired them to clear property lines for a fence install. They did such an amazing job that I then hired them to clear out the interior property. They exceeded my expectations and were so helpful and communicative during the entire process. I plan on bringing them back for further jobs on the future. Excellent service."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.
