"I had ABS come out to clean up and refresh our backyard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Their quote was very reasonable compared to other options we considered, and they were extremely responsive throughout the entire process. They showed up when they said they would, worked efficiently, and did a fantastic job clearing everything out and laying pine straw. The attention to detail really made a difference, and the yard looks better than it has in years. If you’re looking for a landscaping company that provides great communication, fair pricing, and high-quality work, I highly recommend ABS. We’ll definitely be using them again in the future."

"Joel is a consummate professional who cares about the client and about the work. He doesn't stop until the job is complete and the client 110% satisfied! Clearing land and moving trees around a family home that needed dirt brought in, built up, leveled off and trees moved to ensure that water flows away from the house and that there is a pleasing space around the home. A man of integrity, good will, and a great sense of humor! And he cleans up! More than a fair price. We're sharing his name with everyone we know."

"SHS Construction built us a screened in back porch 12 years ago when the company was new. Excellent work and workman back then. Wanted to remodel our master bathroom & once again called on SHS Construction. They have only gotten better! Quality work, professional workmen, easy communication with contractor and on-site checks by him throughout project. Have worked with contractors when living in other states and SHS is by far the best. Highly recommend SHS for value, workmanship and knowledge."

"This is my FIRST time hiring a lawn pro and Mr. Luis M (803 Lawn Care) has performed EXCEEDED EXPECTATION. Luis is very professional and diligent to his work to the excellence. He is customer focused. He turned my "messy" backyard to be the perfect, neat and tidy platform. He made my front and back bushes look very organized and his expertise is outstanding. His work ethics are very impressive with high level of integrity. Luis has done a very amazing job to both of my front and back yards. I have no reservation to recommend Luis of 803 Lawn Care to any commercial and residential lawn care project. I have hired Luis for my long term lawn care pro and will have more projects for him in coming days. Thank you, Luis for your hard work and lawn care. I really appreciate Luis and his lawn care work."

Customers say: True professional

"We have hired George Daniels and his son at New Beginings Landscaping to do a lot of work for us over the past 15 years. They do outstanding work, are always on time and always go above and beyond to provide outstanding customer service. They recently planted 4 10 foot Nellie Stevens Hollies, 2 Camellias, a number of encore azaleas as well as a number of foundation plantings around our new patio. They also remulched our backyard natural areas. I would not hire anyone else for landscaping work. They are a pleasure to work with and never disappoint.

Small jobs welcome

"my paint was peeling off the wainscotting and he came and found a solution to the bond the paint to the wainscotting and repainted my entire large family room. He was precise and got the job done quickly. He cleaned everything up and moved back the furniture. I am very happy with the job! It came out better than the previous professional painter I had hired. I wish he would have done the original job. He also did small odd jobs such as mulching and it was done quickly as well."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

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.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
