"Sumner is very professional and knowledgeable when it comes to handling waste/junk removal. A few months back I hired him to remove an old brick fire pit it was done quickly and it was very reasonably priced. His charismatic nature makes it very easy to do business with.

"I cannot express enough how impressed I am with this company. Andrew and Midlands Home Renovations LLC are the ones you want to trust with your home. He could have taken shortcuts, but instead, he went above and beyond for my family and our home. Andrew is a family man and an exceptional contractor. He supported me and my family through a challenging time when our home suffered damages due to a small leaking shower valve. What's more, I was out of town on business while my wife and family were at home. Andrew promptly opened the flooring, assessed the damages, identified the source of our problems, and resolved them. He even discovered a pipe that a previous contractor assured me was fixed, yet it was still leaking under our home. Although it was not within the scope of work he initially signed up for, Andrew still fixed it to ensure there were no further leaks under our home. With over 10 years of experience in marketing and previous experience as a construction worker, I know the ins and outs of business and the effort involved. Trust me when I say THIS COMPANY IS THE ONE YOU WANT! Andrew, on behalf of my entire family, we sincerely thank you and your company for the outstanding work done. Great job, guys. We look forward to doing much more business with this company in the very near future."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.
