"Had a large stump & roots beneath grade.  Animals couldn't stop digging into it, and the sinkholes were a mess.  Pierce gave me an initial quote, but I wanted him to excavate well beyond the stump to make sure (if needed).  The full job, with my extra request, was to run about $1,400.  It was supposed to include grading of the surface with premium topsoil.
They came and did the job, but they only did the stump diameter (about 6 ft).  Pierce said they didn't feel we needed to go further.  Also said they didn't need any topsoil.  Said the area might settle a little as we go forward, and may need to add some soil in the future.  I thought that was a little odd, since that should have been anticipated with the original estimate.  So, I held off on this review to see how it would go.
It's been a few months, and things are going great.  Caught a vole digging out there the day after the job, but they must have realized the difference.  Haven't had an animal hole or sinking spot since.  I still think there might have been a mix up with the crew and the topsoil, but nonetheless, Pierce quickly took that amount off of the job.  He gives a great cash discount and, at the time at least, an Angie's list discount.  The whole thing cost only $500.
All in all, Pierce was very professional and responsive.  He is very quick to get back to you, and very prompt with the service.  He could have very easily done an inflated job at my request, rather he was very quick to give money back to me and say, "you didn't need that".  Had I known I could have corrected the major issue in my back yard for that price, I would have called Pierce a long time ago.  I would definitly use him again."

"We had a shed pad installed for our new shed. Bob really worked to make sure we understood the different types of pads we could get as well as the ground leveling process. He was the only contractor we talked to that put the pad in the ground (excavating some dirt) so that it didn't just sit on top. As an added bonus, he swiped away a patch of really thick ivy that we've been struggling with. When scheduling the pad, he did delay the installation due to weather issues, showing real concern that if we didn't delay at least a day, the installation would be less than the professional level he likes to leave with. I left for the morning to go to work and when I came home, the pad was ready for a shed.
Bob shows a concern for his homeowner's well being in all matters and is very knowledgable. I fully recomend him to anyone seeking a similar install, and will consider Rock-a-fella's when ever I have a gravelly/patio/deck need in the future.

"Some years ago, we had the drain pipe replaced that drains the back yard into a pipe in the basement, which then connects to the drain pipe to the city stormwater/sewer system.  Ever since, water has come in directly around the pipe during heavy or persistent, soaking rain.  Plumbers had confirmed there was no leak in the pipes, and concrete contractors had stated that the concrete in the back yard and basement looked good.  Rightway proposed to excavate the concrete back yard around the drain pipe, seal the area around the pipe with hydraulic cement with tar and plastic coatings, backfill, and replace the concrete yard surface.  All of this was done within a day, working in tight quarters.  The crew was friendly and courteous.  They had to buy extra cement to fill areas that had washed away under the pipe.  The finished concrete looks nice.  Then we waited for the rain.
A heavy rain fell about a month later, and unfortunately the repair did not solve the problem.  Rightway returned to investigate, and we were all mystified.  It was unclear whether further repairs to the wall, beyond rebuilding, would have fixed the problem.  Rightway offered, under its warranty, to install a drain and sump pump in this corner of the basement floor to catch and dispose of the water that enters the basement at this location.  Again, all work was done in less than a day, working in tight quarters in the basement, working around the hot water heater, appliances, and electrical meter and ground.  This new crew was again courteous, and hung plastic to keep concrete dust from wafting up the stairs when they broke up the basement floor.  While it doesn't stop the water from coming in, it no longer floods the back of my basement.  All storms since have been well contained in the sump pit, and the basement remains dry.
All Rightway employees, from salesman to crew to office staff, were courteous, responsive, and answered my many questions with patience.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
