"They paved my huge driveway in only two days and the outcome is excellent. Franklin arrived with a whole team of men and they worked very hard and did a quality job. I can totally recommend Villa and Sons and I will hire them again for another job in the spring."

"ProPavers did an excellent job. We hired them for 3 projects. They put pavers down in the front and back and built a huge retaining wall on the side of our property and everything turned out beautiful. He did exactly what he said he was going to do for the exact price he originally quoted. Very pleasant to work with."

"Hire Jonathan in 2017 to build a new outdoor, two-level deck for our new home. This project involved deconstruction, removal of the previous deck, a large amount of landscaping, wood working, excavating, and working with the town for permitting. Jonathan did a great job managing our expectations, walking us through the plan, as well as educating us about what would be required for such a project. Jonathan and his team were patient with us, walking us through materials, labor, licensing, and all of the other costs and timelines for the project. Jonathan also walked us through all of our options for materials, finishing, and even the details about how the deck would be attached to the bedrock, and the house. When work started, Jonathan's team was very professional. They kept the workspace, and the house tidy, and Jonathan was always very patient with all of our questions. During construction, like I'm sure many projects,Issues arose the required us to change our plans. There was a large tree that was too close to the deck, and we had to remove the tree, as well as alter some plants for the deck. The team was very helpful and very flexible during this whole process. The end result of the projects were better than I could have anticipated. We now have a beautiful outdoor deck, that we enjoy frequently. We would enthusiastically use finest craftsman again!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

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.

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