I take pride in offering honest, quality and reliable work.\nI was raised by a master plumber and started working in the trades when I was about 5 years old. Now, over 25 years later, I have learned to manage large projects by myself. I have extensive experience in residential and commercial plumbing service work but I have grown to love landscaping and property maintenance. The instant gratification of working with earth is much more satisfying.\nMowing, Landscape Remodel, Custom Decks & Fences, Ponds/Waterfalls, Seasonal & Storm Cleanup, Tree Trimming/Removal. \n\nIf you would like to support a local, family owned business that offers top quality service, Peace of Mind Property Maintenance is ready to go!

"JunkRUs LLC did an excellent job of tearing down a shed in my back yard that a huge pine tree fell on. They worked quickly and efficiently to get the job done. They hauled the remains of the building and ALL the debris off. The area where the shed once stood was left perfectly clean. The owners were courteous, polite, and just good people to do business with. I highly recommend them."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding 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.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

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