"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!"

"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."

"The folks at Chip Chop n' Grind are fantastic! Adam and his crew were friendly, professional, on time, and hard-working. They really went above and beyond on the work at our house. Adam wants to make sure everything is done right and it shows in the quality of Chip Chop's work. I couldn't be happier with the work that was done. I will absolutely use them again and will definitely be recommending them to others."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

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.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
