"C2G was excellent during the entire process. they had a quote to my in less than 24 hours and promptly answered my questions when I called them. Once I selected them they were able to schedule the job just a few days out and I could not have been more satisfied with the outcome. The two workers who did the job were knowledgeable and respectful. In over 20 years of home ownership I would have to say this was the best experience I ever had with a home contractor."

"We had such a horrible time trying to find a solution to our finished basement taking on water a second time just after we redid our floors. After several estimates from people offering very outrageous solutions and prices, High Tech Concrete & Excavation reached out to us. We took a chance and were not disappointed in the slightest! Jimmy was great - good communication, fantastic and quick work, and VERY reasonable pricing which both my husband and I greatly appreciated. He was very honest with his estimate and actually cared to look at all points that were affected in the house instead of just outside. He even took time during their work to show me issues they found with our foundation and offered to fix them while he was here. It's been 3 months and absolutely no water has found its way into our finished basement We'll definitely be keeping their card and calling them back in the springtime to finish our driveway and for any other work we may need. You wont be disappointed!"

"I definitely recommend GMC landscaping to anyone looking to do hardscape work and will consider him in the future if I have any other projects that I would like to get done. I hired Jorge to install a new set of front steps and a couple relatively large retaining walls around my driveway. Throughout the entire process, he was very easy to get in contact with and if I ever had a question, he was always very prompt to get back to me. Jorge was also very flexible with me as well. I was working on a budget and was willing to put in some labor myself to tear down and dispose of the old steps and wooden retaining walls. I was able to do most of the demolition work myself before his crew came out for the prep and install. His crew are extremely hard workers. There were a few relatively hot days and a lot of the work needed to be done by hand. His guys have an extremely good work ethic and it was impressive seeing them get so much done in a short amount of time. Each one of the blocks they used weighed 80lbs+ a piece and I can tell that their work is going to stand the test of time. The walls and steps are straight and level and the quality of materials used are going to last a long time. The results have blown away my expectations. I've had multiple people stop after seeing the new steps and walls installed and asked for Jorge's information after seeing his work."

"James did a phenomenal job. He cleared a large bluestone planter, mulched and planted a beautiful variety of perennials. He planted new azalea bushes in 2 other locations and everything looks amazing. His work was meticulously done. We are very pleased with how everything turned out, and will be calling James Cruger LLC for future work. Highly recommended."

Customers say: Quick response

"After my wife and I interviewed other contractors to rectify a very difficult basement flooding problem, we met with Marc the owner of this company: (HVL&D). Everything had to be done; repairing the foundation, creating inside drains and installing two sump pumps are only some of the things that had to be done. We are a working family who has done most of all home repair work ourselves, but knew when we had met our match. HVL&D had ALL equipment needed and was able to get all the parts needed very fast! He not only accomplished what he set out to do but re-landscaped everywhere all his crew worked and went above what we paid them to do. They were extremely neet and professional. These are the guys to call for any water issues in the yard and home. Will probably have them build a deck for us when ready! VERY capable folks. They give you what you pay for!"

"Tim was quick to stop by to take a look at our property and within one day we had an estimate. We accepted it and within just a few days the work was completed. Tim is the foreman and was courteous, answered his phone every time I called and was lovely to work with. I would definitely use this company again in any future landscaping projects we need done."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.

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.

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.

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