"This tree was not only tall, but also very wide. It was rotting and due to its close vicinity to lots of buildings, removal needed to be done carefully. Daryl North and his crew did a fantastic job, ensuring that no property or vehicles were damaged in the process. The yard was too small to bring any large equipment back there, so they had to take small pieces of the tree down one piece at a time due to its enormous size by actually climbing the tree, but were able to take the entire tree down in one day with complete safety in mind. They came back a second day to grind the huge stump and hauled away the debris and left the yard so clean, that I could hardly believe that the 100-year-old tree had ever been there! I have the highest respect for Daryl and his crew for making this dangerous job look like a piece of cake. They were professional, polite, and very friendly and kept me informed every step of the way. All of this was done for an incredibly reasonable price. Also, since the city required me to plant a new tree to replace the one I removed, Daryl referred me to someone who helped me purchase and plant a lovely replacement. I highly recommend North Woods Tree Service if you want the job done right!"

"Great work. They cane out right away for the estimate and got the job done quickly. Cleaned up site, couldn’t even tell they were in my yard except for the nice retaining wall. Would definitely recommend."

"They put in new drains and a dry well for our driveway, carport, and front yard. When the first dry well wasn't large enough to hold all the runoff from a heavy storm, they came back and added a second for free. Excellent customer service, very responsive, good work."

"We couldn t be happier with our addition from Paradise Construction! Nour and his crew were extremely professional and courteous throughout the process. Nour was one of many contractors we had bid on existing plans for a two story addition on our 1920 s bungalow. His bid was reasonable in comparison and the quality of work met or exceeded our expectations. We appreciated that the work was completed within the agreed upon timeline. We were living in the home during the construction and they were respectful of our space and privacy. He, or his office manager, kept in constant contact about upcoming work and all aspects of the project. We felt confident that Nour had our satisfaction in mind during all phases of construction and his goal was for us to love the work that had been done. We would definitely use Paradise Construction for any work we need in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone seeking a contractor."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

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.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.
