"Colton was prompt, efficient and cleaned up after the job was done. He took out some large shrubs that had been an eyesore on one side of my house. It looks great now and I can plant flowers there. I?m so glad I hired Colts Property Services."

"Josh at Northwestern was very reliable and installed my block retaining wall and related landscaping including stone top soil plants shrubs resulting in a quality finished product. And the best part is that there was no resulting damage to my driveway and lawn when using the mini-excavator because Josh took the necessary precautions. I am very pleased. I highly recommend Northwestern!"

"We heard & read great reviews about Larry miller const. He did a ton of work on our home. He started with removing cement block walls in the interior of our home to expand our d/r & l/r. Drywalled the entire homes ceilings from a all drop type ceilings. He dry walled & painted the entire home. He built 3 closets throughout the home, installed vinyl plank flooring throughout our home. he then completely disassembled a 12x24 existing sun room from the house & erected it on a new trex deck that he attached to our existing pool along with a 40'x5' stone retaining wall aside of sunroom. After removing the sunroom he built a 24x12 cathedral ceiling bedroom where the sunroom once stood. we made tons of changes as we went through construction and it was as Larry would say "not a problem" & say "we expect this to happen during such a huge project". His work was impeccable & we are very happy with all his construction and the whole crew was so cordial throughout the project. They have all become friends, not just workers. Jeff & sue Schappell"

"I had a great experience with this handyman. Very affordable, professional, and reliable. He showed up on time, explained what needed to be done clearly, and finished the job quickly without cutting corners. The quality of work was excellent, especially for the price. It?s hard to find someone honest and skilled these days, but this is definitely someone I?d recommend and hire again."

Called around 11am to get it repairs… Chris had his crew around our area was literally there in less than 20 minutes and everything was fixed! Awesome company. Will be using them for everything."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.
