"Juan and his crew replaced a large amount of the sod in my front yard. Both their labor and materials are superior. In all my years of home ownership, as far as contractors go, they rank at the very top in all categories!!! The work they do is high quality, they don't cut any corners. For example, I had sod replaced; and not only did they remove the proper way, with a sod cutter... they even removed extra dirt to ensure they dug far enough down to remove and all the weeds and their seedlings. In addition, they also tilled the areas. When they saw excess water in one area, they didn't just lay the sod over it, they took time to verify whether there was a leak. This included digging several inches in both depth and width on a 106 degree day with a shovel, before laying the sod. Luckily, no leak was found, but they still added drainage rock. My yard had a large sunken area, and they added extra soil to properly grade the slope. Not only did they put fertilizer both under and on top of the new sod, they also put it on the existing sod (that I wasn't replacing). All the while they are doing this work; they continuously kept the yard, sidewalk and street meticulous. After the sod was laid, they edged it. The sod they use is delivered fresh daily from Houston. I have never seen such beautiful new sod. On a 106 degree day, the sod was actually green, and not flat!!! It's almost impossible to see any seams where they laid the sod. They came when they were scheduled, kept me informed when they were on their way, and had great communication during the project. Once the sod was laid and rolled, they had me turn on the sprinkler zones to ensure they were providing good coverage, and also to determine how often and how long the lawn needed to be watered for the first two weeks. They provided me with specific watering instructions, as well as how to care for the lawn in the future. Fantastic company! By the way, this is the first review I have ever taken the time to write."

Customers say: Quick response

"It's hard to find reliable, trustworthy repair people of any kind. Well, I found H&K and the reviews led me to hire them. I cannot stress how impressed I was with Henry's attention to detail, pride in his work and friendliness. He explained what it would take to do the job and the cost. I had to have a bridge cabinet cut down to fit a combination microwave/vent hood over the range. He did this expertly and even helped install the microwave/vent hood. He also had to do some electrical to that same cabinet. Our job also included tile backsplash on two walls. Henry went way above just doing a good job, he went the extra mile to make sure the wife and I were satisfied..................... WITHOUT ASKING or pushing him, like some contractors you run in to. If you need any home repair done, H&K would be one of the first, if not the first, to contact for a bid. I won't bother getting quotes from another. Once I find a good contractor for what I need, I stick with them, and I have their card in my select few of various contractors I trust. Thanks again Henry, and Kristy, you guys are great!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.
