"They did a great job helping me repair water damage in faux wood panel flooring. They also helped repair wood trim. They gave me an accurate and reasonable estimate, showed up as scheduled, and finished the job in a reasonable time. Recommend!"

"We found Super Junk Houston on Home Advisor. I was able to get a quote on the phone within a few hours of reaching out and we were able get on their schedule for the next day. We got a call ahead to make sure we were ready. The crew was prompt on the time they said (thank you!), grabbed everything we needed hauled away, and even swept the garage where we had everything. Looked SO much better when they left. Thank you so much!"

"I recently hired Sam?s for landscaping and couldn?t be happier with the results. From the first consultation, the team was professional, punctual, and clearly knew what they were doing. They listened to exactly what I wanted and offered great suggestions I hadn?t even considered. The work itself was top-notch ? clean, detailed, and finished on schedule. My yard has never looked better, and several neighbors have already asked who did it. Pricing was fair and transparent, with no surprises along the way. I?d highly recommend Sam?s to anyone looking for quality landscaping done right. I?ll definitely be using them again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

After you successfully remove your boulder, you have a few options for what to do to get rid of it. You can rent a dumpster if your yard has many boulders or if you’re planning a larger project. You can even save the boulder and reuse it elsewhere on your property to save on landscaping costs. A few ideas include using the boulder as a natural, abstract statue, breaking it into smaller pieces to line your garden bed, or offering it to a landscaping company that could reuse it for another project.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

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.
