"I recently hired this contractor for a full home demolition in preparation for a new home rebuild. The project exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, their customer service was truly exceptional—they were professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to making the process as smooth as possible. Communication was outstanding at every stage, Most importantly, the project was completed exactly on schedule and stayed within the agreed-upon budget, which is rare and greatly appreciated. The quality of their work, combined with their reliability and integrity, makes them a contractor I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a seamless and stress-free experience. Harris S."

"Lee's Yard Works came to my rescue before an Open House to sell my house --- after 7 other services did not want any jobs under 5 men and $1500. I think Lee did a Fantastic shrub bed clean up, mulching, clipping palm branches hanging from tall trees, and taking off palm yard debris, clipping branches, and making everything really pretty. What a great, friendly, fairly priced business! Great work ethic too ! Thank you Lee ! I highly recommend this business and appreciate the hard work!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

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.

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.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.
