"It has been a pleasure to work with this contractor. He keeps his appointments, does what he said he would and is very professional. He has a lot of experience and can offer pointers that make a better finished product. I will be hiring them for more projects as we move forward with the building plans."

"When we decided to go forward with our backyard project, it was an easy decision to hire Julio’s company again. We first hired him a few years ago for a brand new sod install, new irrigation, and a garden bed in our front lawn. His team was on time, did quality work, and are friendly and honest people. Fast forward to this year, we wanted to make our backyard into usable space. It required a retaining wall, bringing in dirt to level the yard, laying gravel, and creating a fire pit to lounge at. The project also had a tight timeframe - one that I only trusted Julio with. I will hire Julio again and again and I wholeheartedly recommend him. You’ll be happy you reached out to him for your landscaping project."

"I have been using them for 3 years for multiple projects and would not go to somebody else. They also built a cabin in the woods. It was built 10 miles from the road so it was like carrying all the stuff up the path. They also did the garage and remodeling of the house, mostly kitchen and a little bit of plumbing work in the bathroom. I am still using them and I would be using them for the next thing that will be coming up too."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.
