"We cannot say enough about our positive experience with this company! We have zero complaints about their work. Our house is especially challenging, due to previous faulty construction work. None of that presented problems these folks couldn't deal with. When we removed the existing floor and walls in our kitchen, we found complete structural failure - frightening! Every recommendation they gave us we agreed to and couldn't be happier. They really looked out for us! We did not know them prior to hiring them but consider them friends now. We have complete respect for and trust in them. I truly hope we never need to renovate anything again, but, if we do, we won't call anyone else!! - T&J"

"They did a complete tear out of landscaping that had been there for 20+ years. Designed and installed all new and put down river rock. Cleaned up really well. They were on time and on point with everything. Highly recommend."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.
