"Mike Cooper did a wonderful job. I had a leaking toilet and he was able to come to my home within a few hours. He was super efficient, polite, and has excellent work ethics. I would hire him again for my plumbing needs."

Most recently, demolition and home restoral have been a current focus due to the ill-effects of Hurricane Harvey. As professionals, we offer accurate estimates (insurance grade), and work closely with our clients to match our expertise to their vision of a better home.

"The contract sent out a crew to remove the old roof. That crew completed that in 1 day. The contract didn't get a roofing crew out for about a week after. I ended up raining & causing interior damage. The roofers installed the new roof but it was horrible! It was very very poor work. The contract said he was going to fix a few problems & wanted to get the balance of the roof job. We questioned why he didn't @ less replace the fascia before doing the roof & that's when it turned. The contract wanted to get paid for the roof job before he did anything else. After going back & forth about the poor roof job, the contractor agreed to return the deposit because he admitted that it was a poor job. He wrote up a agreement to repay the deposit but has yet to do so. After several calls, he stated he is out of business & will pay a little @ a time, when he get some money."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Trenches are typically 12 inches to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, your city or county may have specific ordinances that clarify the dimensions needed for the project. For instance, a water pipe may need to be 24 inches deep, but a drainage pipe may need to be 36 inches deep.

The answer may vary based on where you live. Residential sewer lines are generally buried 5 feet to 6 feet under the ground. However, it's not uncommon to see pipes buried as deep as 8 feet in colder climates in order to ensure that piping is placed below the freeze line. Digging depth could impact your sewer line replacement cost.
