"Worst experience and lack of professionalism ever. Never seen such poor quality of work. Two month job took almost 7 months. Never came back to my house to fill hole they left under foundation where rodents gained access or return the gravel back there. Used the wrong materials on grading the roads so they're already sinking. Ruined my driveway. Scraped away the stone dust and crushed stone to gain access to side yard. Every time it rains, cheap road sand pours into my driveway, further eroding it, and draining several inches of this sand into my flower beds. Apparently, the $300 it would cost Jake to come back and return the driveway to its original state, is just not important enough to him. I hope it ends up costing him his reputation because I plan on leaving reviews everywhere including social media. Maybe you'll learn something from this experience."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.
