"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!)"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.
