"I could not agree more with the other positive reviews. Tom and his crew were honest and diligent. Tom was up front about how bad off our situation was and was able to clearly explain how he would fix it without out ever pressuring a sale. He finished with in the time frame he said even with the bad weather and with set backs due to how my system was set up. His work and customer service speaks for it's self. I put a lot of trust in him with this huge investment to my home and I would hire him again. I will most definitely be recommending him to friends who need waterproofing work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.
