"Shannon Parker built a screened porch for us from the ground up. He had no problem tying into our roof when other contractors we had talked to hemmed and hawed and did not know how to get it done. Shannon's communication skills are excellent; he kept us informed at every step of the way regarding progress and advising us of any cost changes (due to our plan changes) or rain delays. It was a pleasure to work with him from start to finish, and the screened porch turned out beyond our expectations due to his knowledge, skill and attention to detail. We would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone doing new construction or building a screened porch, and we would hire him again. Oh, and his pricing is fair, too. We are delighted with our screened porch!"

We are just half way through the project and delayed because a generational snow storm, we know he will stay on top of the conditions and finish when it is safe and able to within our needed due date. We will be hiring Sky High and Mr. Phenneger for many future projects and recommend him to friends. It is a pleasure to find such a person with integrity, honesty and skills."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain.
