"Montes Construction put in a walkway for me. They answered all my questions and guaranteed that I would be highly satisfied with the end result. I was. Pricing was fair and the personnel were very proficient in what they were doing. End result was a fantastic looking walkway completed in just a few days."

"I cannot say enough about how INCREDIBLE Jose & Ary Caloca are! I took a gamble hiring them for my flooring project since they didn’t have any reviews yet, and I am HONORED to be their first! I submitted a quote request on Angi and Jose called me right away, came out the same morning, and gave me an extremely reasonable quote. He and Ary started the job the very next day and worked tirelessly to finish the project quickly, on budget, and most importantly, with impeccable results and attention to detail. They went above and beyond every step of the way, and even left my house more clean and organized than they found it. I simply can’t recommend them enough. They are hard workers and very good, honest people. I’ve already asked Jose to quote me for other projects I’ve been putting off around my home. It is so valuable to have a good contractor that you can trust. I would recommend Home Pro 915 to anyone (and I’ve already started telling all my friends about them!)"

"Took 1.5 days.  Overall cleaned up excellent and took care to put fence panel back in place.  Would have gone much faster had they had a backup chainsaw as this was one tough tree."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.
