"I dealt with John and Dave. They were always very punctual, the proposal was specific it clearly stated what they would be doing, the size of the septic tank, overflow, main line and the cost. It was all done to code. They were polite, responsive and answered all my questions even after the work was completed, I wish I would have realized or been told how extensive the area that was disturbed would be. I would have removed more of the plants."

"Rob & Mike are nice guys who work hard. They did a fairly nice job on our basement. They need to spend a little more time being more careful bringing drywall down the stairs, operating in areas where ceiling height isnt the norm. They also need to pay more attention to detail when taping and spackling. Seams are visible as are areas where spackle wasnt sanded enough. They did try to correct everything we pointed out. We give them an A for effort!!"

"I hired A-1 Tank Removals and Installations to replace my leaky oil tank located in my basement. A-1 is a 3 generation family owned business. Service was excellent. Joe and his son were very professional. They were on time and very careful to cover my floor and stairs. They were meticulous with their work and everything was completed in about 5 hours. Clean up was also good both in my basement and outside my house."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.
