"J. Scott Paving repaired a 5'x8' area of our driveway that was excavated for a chimney foundation repair and they also sealcoated the entire 150 foot driveway.  I found them based on online reviews.  Working with John Sr. and John Jr. was a great experience from start to finish!  We got a clear written quote at the time of their initial review and it was slightly lower than 2 other quotes from other contractors.  They prefer to be contacted via cell phone and either answer immediately or return the call the same day after leaving a message.  They were flexible on scheduling as we needed to delay the project a few times because of conflicts with other contractors who were still using the driveway.  The 3 team members who did the repair/seal took their time, addressed all our questions, offered advice and were kind and courteous - they did a great job addressing the details around a radon system fan and new fence posts.  After about a week and half, John Jr. called to see if we had any questions, ensured we were still satisfied with the work and offered suggestions for maintaining it going forward - to help ensure the sealcoating would last 3-5 years!  They are very knowledgeable and we have confidence that they will stand by their work.  We enjoyed working with this really nice team and highly recommend them!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Silt fences should be trenched 8 to 12 inches deep to prevent sediment-filled water from escaping underneath. It also helps to anchor the fence during wet, windy weather. The silt fence fabric often has a red line to indicate the depth for digging. A good contractor will be familiar with the guidelines and regulations.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

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.

Most municipalities require excavation permits for any significant digging, especially if the excavation affects utilities or public property. However, permits for excavation depend on your local government and the scope of the project. Hire an experienced contractor for your excavation job so that they can be the ones to deal with permitting, not you. 

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.
