"One of the most driven young men Iâ ve come across. I hired him to remove an old 12x20 shed and he was in and out before i arrived home from work. Within the following weeks be returned to lay stone around my home and build a fire pit where the shed used to be. When it comes to landscaping or machine work, heâ s the guy to call."

"The Fadale Team did an excellent job! Punctual, courteous and did the work that they said they would do in a timely fashion. Would absolutely hire again and again. This is the ACTUAL job discussed in the 6/6/2017 review. I am the ACTUAL customer who is VERY happy. I failed to mark a property line which led to my new drainage pipe cross the property line. This was brought to my attention by my neighbor, I spoke to the Fadale team who quickly returned a phone call and put a plan into motion to correct my error. Thank you Fadale team and sorry neighbor! Please disregard the 6/6/2017 negative review from an angry neighbor."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

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.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.
