"We were very pleased with the work the folks at AlphaLandworks did for us! It included a free estimate, grading a long steep drive and laying and packing crusher run gravel, grading a large yard and laying a bunch of sod. All in less than a week from the time found on Angi. They are so easy and honest to work with and reasonable price too. "

"The guys, Joseph and Josiah, were very professional in getting the work done of restoring my door to the proper place it should be. They painted the wood that needed to be replaced beside the door and made sure all was properly aligned and in good working order."

"Stephen and his crew did a great job rebuilding my deck. It was a big job due to its size, but they built a very solid deck and did everything I wanted. He also made sure some damage around my house due to water problems got fixed. I have recommended him to several friends."

"Erika and Jeffrey were very prompt in giving us a very reasonable quote to have sod laid. We signed with them, the next day fresh cut sod got delivered and job got done. I would HIGHLY recommend Martin Construction and Landscaping. Their team of workers are very professional, efficient, and do top notch work. Lynette"

"I contacted Home Advisers looking for a company that could clear some land. I had just acquired. 17 1/2 acres of land that most people would pass up, a ravine to be precise , I wanted a retirement home.that was secluded and one with nature. It was completely overgrown with anything that would grow. John Allen from Boss Equipment contacted me. I met him on the property and kinda explained what I was doing and was hoping to accomplish. First stage came and John met me back on the property. Transformation of a pig to a horse as it was still an animal but showed a little grace. We selected a spot for the Home and garage and John and his crew went back to work. This horse is now a unicorn. Ità ¢à  à  s a one of a kind home site. Ità ¢à  à  s a rare find and the incredible work performed by John and his crew will take me through the rest of my life to the next. John Allen started out as a guy I hired to do some work and has become a friend in the process. John always kept me informed and sent photos of the progress along the way. Although this was not a fast process due to weather, power, water and septic I am impressed at John ability to get things done at each stage. Do I recommend John? Yes I do. I canà ¢à  à  t say enough good things about Him and his crew."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

To determine whether your homeowners' insurance will cover crawl space repair, consider the cause of the issue. Repair may be covered if the problems were caused by an event that the insurance covers, such as vandalism or a windstorm. However, companies won't cover the repair if the issues are caused by neglect or wear and tear.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.
