"Mr. Lown did a great job trenching my yard for sprinkler install. He went above and beyond to help me and not damage anything. I will be using Lown Performance again in the near future."

"they came up to give me an estimate and once we agreed on the estimate we setup a time for the next day to fix the busted pipe and change the valve due to being so close to the busted area of the pipe. they showed up on time and after the fix they made sure the pipe was not leaking. they were professional, courteous, punctal and reasonably priced. I recommend them to anyone and will definitely call on them again if needed to."

"I have had an awful time getting my lawn done since my lawnmower broke. I have had 3 separate men and do my yard, each one was a disaster! I remembered angies list off of and ad and called. Paul call within 10 minutes and set a time to come and give me a quote on doing my yard. I agreed to price and he came with his crew the next day. They went far and beyond what I expected. So much so I have them coming back to do deep shrubbery cutting and flower bed clean up. I have also set up for them to start lawn maintenance for a year. Highly recommended them, they will not disappoint."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

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.

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
