"I cannot recommend Jorge (owner) and his team highly enough. I had a pretty small job - digging out a a 250 sq ft gravel parking area and filling it with topsoil to convert to a garden. Jorge was easy to work with, he made great suggestions about drainage, slope, and soil type, and got the job done much faster than I expected. If I had gotten a landscape company to do this, they would have charged me double what he did. Atlas would be a great choice for landscape projects that primarily involve excavation, grading, and new garden beds. Atlas is fantastic. I hope I can find another reason to hire them!"

"They did a great job! My roof looks great! Reliable and kept me well informed about everything. They kept cost in mind and cleaned up nicely after themselves. Serge even came out late to tarp the roof until it could get repaired so that I didnâ t have any further damage to the house waiting for the roof. They were very nice to work with. Great people. I canâ t say enough good things about them!"

"United's estimate was lower than most of the half dozen I got for my >1,000 square ft yard (back & both sides) project. Marvin & crew delivered as promised and performed each step as stated (excavation, leveling, base & top layers of gravel, compacting, pavers & polymeric sand). Started & finished on time. While not on-site all the time, Marvin visited just about every day & always returned my calls promptly. He suggested a window well, which I hadn't considered & he was right. He met reasonable requests I made & covered all the bases. His crew was courteous, responsive, worked hard & cleaned up after completion. Marvin is a seasoned professional, is knowledgeable, was responsive and met all his commitments & deliverables. He seemed genuine & his communication was clear throughout. I am glad I chose United Corp, primarily because of Marvin & the work his crew performed. As far as the end result goes - so far, so good. After 3 weeks, I have no issues with the workmanship. Let's see if anything develops from here. My one disappointment is that a few of the pavers appear to be discolored. Marvin said I'd have to take it up with the supplier (pavers are Techo-Bloc). Naturally I'm not happy with this. In my opinion, if pavers appear to be blemished, they should not be used. Maybe if I wet-look seal it, it will no longer be an issue. Bottom line is I'm glad I chose United. Marvin was the face of United during my entire project & I'm glad he was. The price was competitive, the project was finished on-time & within budget, the quality of work is good & there were no surprises. While not an expert in the field, based on what little I know, I am satisfied & would hire Marvin & his crew again."

"Sam and his team did an absolute phenomenal job on our recent property project. We hired them for land clearing, grading, and forestry mulching, and the results exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, Sam and his crew went above and beyond to ensure everything was done perfectly. Their forestry mulching left the property looking clean and usable, and the grading work was top-notch. They are professional, efficient, and clearly take great pride in their work. If you need any land management or clearing done right, look no further than Timberclaw. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!"

"Our project was completed beautifully by ACEncio Concrete. They created patios, sidewalks, steps, and a driveway extension for us. We are very happy with the quality of the work performed. Reynaldo and his crew were very courteous and respectful. They were all very conscientious to leave the worksite neat and clean. We highly recommend ACEncio Concrete."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

To determine whether your homeowners' insurance will cover crawl space repair, consider the cause of the issue. Repair may be covered if the problems were caused by an event that the insurance covers, such as vandalism or a windstorm. However, companies won't cover the repair if the issues are caused by neglect or wear and tear.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.
