"Mr. Bobby Truett did a superb job of clearing brush, removing tree stumps, and trimming tree limbs that posed a serious danger of damaging fencing on my property. He was extremely attentive to my needs as a custimer, communicated with me very well, and paid great attention to detail. He even worked on weekends to ensure my schedule was met! I would highly recommend Bobby for any job that requires a skid steer!"

"I am going to be as honest as possible to help out the next person in their decision to hire him. First and foremost he is a great guy and friendly, he knows what he is doing and his workmanship is top notch. I initially hired him for a patio / porch and then a 3car garage. When he started it was going well and after I paid him a little more so he could get ahead, he would run out of material and would just leave without saying anything. His work was impressive but I felt he became complacent and started cutting corners because he ran out of money to buy materials. As an example: Not planning ahead, he left a portion of my roof exposed and the rain went into my home causing considerable sheet rock and insulation damage. He could have covered it to prevent some of the damage but his response was â I canâ t control the weatherâ . That was disappointing as I had to cover that bill myself. On the 3 car garage, I ran into the same problem. He started slowing down I was a little disappointed with the timelines. He would show up and work a few hours then leave. Despite me asking for a blueprint or plan. He failed to provide one. On several occasions he ran out of material and the work was delayed. The workers he had would come to me and say they would have to leave because there was no more material. I did notice that when you asked him questions he would get a little defensive. Unfortunately some of his hard work was tarnished by his lack of planning despite being paid in advance. Half of my structure remained exposed due to lack of planning on his part. Towards the end of the project he was piecing boards together and using left over scraps as patch up work. I did question him on a few things like hauling of the leftover material but he referred to the contract and said it was not in the contract. However, he was willing to charge me more money to get it removed. In order to end in good terms, I just wanted him to finish what he started and paid him to avoid further disappointment. I still have left over material to haul away, a few areas to patch, tape and seal. I would recommend him because of the skill he has however, I may or may not hire him again. I would let the next person know to MAKE SURE you read the contract very carefully, ask questions and request plans with a timeline or you will have to hire other people to finish his work. I have plenty of pictures to share if interested."

"Luke did an excellent job building a fence and two water gaps. Though he didn’t have to, he repaired inferior work performed by another company on another part of the ranch."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

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 many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
