"Had the opportunity to experience Lilco's work on several projects. These guys always had a professional attitude and took the time for all preparations and quality control. They did not leave a mess or unwarranted damages like so many fly-by-night contractors tend to do. They even magnet swept driveways for screws/nails whenever they finished loading out for the night. The owner is always up front about any costs, with no hidden charges to get the jobs done."

"We recently had our backyard project completed, including land leveling, a retaining wall, and repairing pavers that had settled during the dirt hauling process. We are very happy with the final result. The contractor completed the work within the agreed timeline and delivered everything as discussed in the project scope. His pricing was reasonable, communication was excellent, and he paid close attention to detail. Any issues that came up during the project were addressed promptly and professionally. The before-and-after photos speak for themselves—the transformation is outstanding. If you’re looking for someone who provides quality workmanship, fair pricing, and delivers what they promise, I highly recommend him. I would confidently refer him to my family and friends."

"Highly recommended! We hired M&L General Contractor to remove our Asphalt driveway and concrete walkway and to replace with pavers and Belgian blocks edging. The driveway is about 36x22. The whole team worked efficiently and completed the whole job in 3 days! The best part I like about this team is that they did not cut corners and they followed my precise requests to prep and lay pavers, even though it means a lot more cuttings/customizations, and a lot more time and effort to meet my requests. The experience was pleasant and easy. I am very happy with the new curb appeal and the final product that Ismael, Jose and his team delivered!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.
