We run fast 24 hour emergency service and cover the entire Davidson county area including all surrounding counties. We consider it a pleasure to supply all of your plumbing needs.

"1600+ dollars so far to clear a simple clog and it’s still not fixed. 9 hours late to the water jet appointment. Flooded my bathroom, twice! The helper didn’t know how to install a toilet (first the pressure line then the wax seal). I had to chase them backing up the driveway as they left it flooding! Double charged the camera fee ($495) because they didn’t have the water jet with them. Toilet still won’t flush, tub won’t drain. Called to try and get them to stand behind their work and they wanted to schedule another $1100 trip to try and do the work they never did the first time. Don’t get ripped off like I did, take your business somewhere else."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most municipalities require excavation permits for any significant digging, especially if the excavation affects utilities or public property. However, permits for excavation depend on your local government and the scope of the project. Hire an experienced contractor for your excavation job so that they can be the ones to deal with permitting, not you. 

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

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.

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.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.
