"I hired Brian to remodel my bathroom and laundry room. His quote was slightly lower than others, and he seemed trustworthy. He repeatedly assured me we were on schedule, so I didn?t question short workdays, missing crew, or added tasks. In the final week, it became clear the project was behind and over budget. Despite asking multiple times, the water heater wasn?t installed. Instead, time was wasted installing a vanity that had to be removed anyway. He promised to return the next week to install the water heater but didn?t show. When he finally did, it was just to collect more money and retrieve his work lights. We had to install the water heater ourselves. The work done has issues: blistered drywall, a creaky shower, uneven flooring, among others. I was also promised an itemized invoice that never came. If you choose to hire him, get all promises in writing and request detailed cost breakdowns. I ultimately felt misled and taken advantage of."

"Despite wet weather and a steep slope, Hunter and helper got it done. Lowest bid by far. Yard is cleaner that I thought possible, and they bunched the usable firewood where I can get at it to cut and split. Lots of big, old trees here, and I will call them first."

"Tried to be reasonable and patient with his work. Pad was out of square from the start, the method to "fix" the issue was one in his best interest; not mine. Once the concrete addition was completed, he never came back to finish the expansion join cuts. Contacted him several times. Very disappointed in his work and professionalism"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

It all depends on the scope of the project. A trencher can certainly save time and energy, but you might not need to dig that deep in the first place. Aside from the depth of the trench, the quality of the soil matters. If it’s light, soft soil, you might try a shovel first. However, if the soil is rocky and hard or there are obstructions in it, like tree roots, a machine trencher might be the better option.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

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.
