"His work was done in a timely manner and the yard looked good once it was completed. However, he gave me a quote based on two inches of mulch to help keep weeds from returning. I also agreed to have him spray an organic weed killer in the stone areas to prevent weeds from coming up. While walking in the garden I noticed there were bare spots in the garden where there should have been mulch and where there was mulch it was not two inches. There were also weeds coming up, which he did explain he might have to come back to do a second application at cost. When I called him about the mulch, he explained that he underestimated the amount of mulch needed. But instead of talking to me about it before he left the job, he waited for me to call him about it. When we did speak, he said he could come in and put down more mulch at cost. At that point I decided to not have him return."

"This was the best landscape design experience I could have ever imagined. They were prompt, professional, and committed. Provided a creative draft of the project, took time to consider my thoughts and ideas, they were very knowledgeable of the plants and trees in the area and what would be the best for my project and property. They had professional assistance to preform the work. The materials they used were quality and the finish project came out just like I expected. Actually even better."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

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.

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.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.
