"Very professional. They removed a dead tree that the builders planted on top of concrete. They removed the concrete which was unknown to exist until they pulled the old tree up and didn't charge me for the extra time spent. Excellent work. Would definitely recommend. Juan was a nice guy and very knowledgeable of landscaping."

"Kristy was very professional on the phone, so sweet and concerned with making sure she got all of the details of when,where and the time to come. The gentleman that came to paint was so respectful, professional and made sure to ask me before leaving if I was happy and satisfied with his work. On top of being on time he did an AMAZING job. I am so thankful for the respect shown in my home! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"

"I am going to be as honest as possible to help out the next person in their decision to hire him. First and foremost he is a great guy and friendly, he knows what he is doing and his workmanship is top notch. I initially hired him for a patio / porch and then a 3car garage. When he started it was going well and after I paid him a little more so he could get ahead, he would run out of material and would just leave without saying anything. His work was impressive but I felt he became complacent and started cutting corners because he ran out of money to buy materials. As an example: Not planning ahead, he left a portion of my roof exposed and the rain went into my home causing considerable sheet rock and insulation damage. He could have covered it to prevent some of the damage but his response was â I canâ t control the weatherâ . That was disappointing as I had to cover that bill myself. On the 3 car garage, I ran into the same problem. He started slowing down I was a little disappointed with the timelines. He would show up and work a few hours then leave. Despite me asking for a blueprint or plan. He failed to provide one. On several occasions he ran out of material and the work was delayed. The workers he had would come to me and say they would have to leave because there was no more material. I did notice that when you asked him questions he would get a little defensive. Unfortunately some of his hard work was tarnished by his lack of planning despite being paid in advance. Half of my structure remained exposed due to lack of planning on his part. Towards the end of the project he was piecing boards together and using left over scraps as patch up work. I did question him on a few things like hauling of the leftover material but he referred to the contract and said it was not in the contract. However, he was willing to charge me more money to get it removed. In order to end in good terms, I just wanted him to finish what he started and paid him to avoid further disappointment. I still have left over material to haul away, a few areas to patch, tape and seal. I would recommend him because of the skill he has however, I may or may not hire him again. I would let the next person know to MAKE SURE you read the contract very carefully, ask questions and request plans with a timeline or you will have to hire other people to finish his work. I have plenty of pictures to share if interested."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

To determine whether your homeowners' insurance will cover crawl space repair, consider the cause of the issue. Repair may be covered if the problems were caused by an event that the insurance covers, such as vandalism or a windstorm. However, companies won't cover the repair if the issues are caused by neglect or wear and tear.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.
