"Avoid this company at all costs. I hired them in Sept 2024 to replace oil tanks, and while they arrived on time, the installation was reckless?they cut through two floor joists instead of properly routing the fill line, compromising my home's structural integrity. They dismissed my concerns and promised a repair that never happened. Even if they had, it would only matter if it passed a home inspection. I?m now facing costly repairs, zero accountability, and the worst service I?ve ever experienced. Don't let Sal or his crew near your home."

We at Lehigh Valley Property Maintenance, offer only the best in quality workmanship and professional courtesy. We specialize in all phases of commercial and residential landscaping. We are committed quality work and outstanding results & are strongly involved in local community activities. We look forward to working with you!

"Installing pavers went fine for the most part. However very disorganized and all over the place when it comes to everything else. Including getting a permit (multiple errors on submitting for permit), drainage with gutter system (overflowed every time it rained, fixed but just dumps to side of yard), mulch (overpriced and mushrooms within a week), grass to fix yard ruined by excavator (used cheapest grass seed that is very different from original grass and netting killed all the grass anyway), ditching project at the end and didn?t stain wood for our patio roof and never gave us paver footings we paid for. Also doesn?t do patio roofs and had to go through another company. Mike wanted to supply the cedar but ended up the wood wasn?t cut right and instead of helping out with the issue, I had to fix it all with the patio roof company myself. Many other things, but long story short paver process was just okay, anything else is a nightmare."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

There is no standard depth, but typically, septic tanks are buried between 4 inches and 4 feet underneath the earth’s surface. There are a few factors that will determine your tank’s depth, including the height of your bedrock, the distance between your home and the tank, and the depth of your main sewer line.

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.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
