"We hired Zingrone Landscaping to remove very old, large bushes from our front yard and plant new shrubs and trees. From start to finish, they far exceeded our expectations, and we cannot recommend them highly enough! Joe and the crew were professional, patient, kind, and incredibly accommodating. They moved plants around multiple times until we found the perfect layout and never once made us feel like our questions or requests were an inconvenience. They genuinely cared about doing the job right and making sure we were happy with the result. Throughout the entire process, Joe was always responsive to our messages. When we reached out after the project was complete with concerns about watering, Joe stopped by the house to answer our questions and make sure we felt confident caring for our new plants. We've worked with a lot of contractors over the past two years, and there are very few we'd call back for future work. Zingrone Landscaping is absolutely one of them!"

"Previous homeowner left us with a mess and we needed new gas lines installed in our house. Gary did an awesome job on everything. He explained why certain things couldn’t be repaired, installed all new properly rated pipe, and rerouted everything so that it was more efficient and it looks clean and tidy. Highly recommend"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.

Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.
