"We definitely recommend A Perfect Finish. The owner Mark is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. He is a Retired Aircraft Tech who builds pools with the precision it takes to keep a jet engine running. Mark recommended things I hadn't thought of for function and longevity, and saved us money where I wanted something I heard was the best. He didn't bully or sell us, he taught and explained every detail. The finished product is more beautiful than I pictured. I look forward to many pool parties and lots of family fun!"

"We needed an exposed gas pipe covered in our pasture and contacted Rockin B Land Services who responded promptly. Devin came out to evaluate the situation and gave us the estimate and his plan. He was here promptly on the scheduled day covered the pipe and graded the area so it flows naturally with the pasture and the runoff. We are extremely pleased and will have other projects in the near future."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

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.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.
