We have over 30 years of experience, so we have seen just about everything! Our services range from fixing your Sink, to remodeling your entire home! We specialize in both commercial and residential. For faster service please call or text 802-324-7467

"This was the most money we have ever paid anyone to do anything...ever. The Sheridans had our trust throughout the entire process. They gave an affordable quote and did awesome work. They cleaned up during each stage of the project and always communicated well with me about timing and issues that came up. Our garage dimensions were awkward and not a perfect rectangle by any means - these guys had to craft a kit of workarounds for irregular shapes and curves. Todd and Luke are good human beings with positive attitudes, and care about their integrity and their work. I hope to use them in the future."

Reliable employee's, sub contract for plumbing and electrical. Fully Insured

"I hired Greg to excavate and waterproof our new 8' tall finished basement. A different contractor did the concrete work. Greg assumed responsibility of all work after the concrete was cured. He said he would acquire and install drainage pipe and fabric around the footings. He said he would apply tar for waterproofing. And he coordinated acquiring stone and sand for back-fill. However, after he back-filled the foundation, I brought to his attention that he didn't apply the waterproofing tar. When I first asked him about not doing the waterproofing tar, he said he called his "guy" to do it and expressed frustration that it didn't get done. A couple days later he changed his message and said I never asked for waterproofing to be done. Then he changed his message again and said he gave me the phone number to his "guy" for me to call and coordinate the waterproofing. In the end, he was certain it was my fault for not coordinating with his "guy" to do the waterproofing. By all accounts, waterproofing is essential because our home is on a lake and has water issues that need to be mitigated. He wanted to charge us for the additional work to re-excavate even though he didn't get it right the first time. We shared harsh words and now I have a foundation that will leak like cheesecloth. It was quite fascinating how many excuses he surmised for why it didn't get done; none of which included that perhaps he made a mistake. I was quite pleased with his work until he blamed me for not doing that one particular thing. Seriously, dude? It was my fault? I understand that mistakes happen, I wish he were mature enough to take responsibility. Don't hire children to do a man's job."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The depth of a septic tank’s drain lines is between 18 and 36 inches underground. These pipes are filled with perforations and surrounded by sand, gravel, or a combination of both, as both materials help filter wastewater. While some pipes are buried closer to the surface, this can create problems unless the soil is compact and doesn’t shift much. 

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Silt fences should be trenched 8 to 12 inches deep to prevent sediment-filled water from escaping underneath. It also helps to anchor the fence during wet, windy weather. The silt fence fabric often has a red line to indicate the depth for digging. A good contractor will be familiar with the guidelines and regulations.
