"Marcus was very nice and followed up appropriately -- we review quotes apples to apples and look at value first and price 2nd.. We decided to hire an arborist to complete the work instead. We always get several bids to consider prior to accepting a bid. The arborist provided a better warranty on the trees in addition to the trees being twice as tall, one extra tree, and overall $150 LESS expensive. Value AND price are what beat A+ Landscaping on this particular job, and the arborist was more familiar with our local zoning ordinances. We did not particularly like that there was a separate fee from A+ for "cleanup" as we believe this should be part of anyone's charge for doing the work. That extra fee was $95. I would probably consider hiring A+ for hardscaping work as those quotes seem more reasonable. The price here only covers non-hardscaping."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

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.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.
