"Gil at Epic Lawn care was courteous, professional and a pleasure to deal with. His crew, led by Rafael, is the best. Very thorough in the prep of the yard. 17 pallets of sod. First, they tilled the soil, then too soil, then laid and rolled the sod. At the end, Rafael helped tune the sprinkler system and drainage to ensure a good install. All in all, excellent work at a competitive price. Highly recommend!"

Small jobs welcome

"They did great work. My bridge was impassable due recent flooding/ erosion. We were stranded at home. Unable to get out/across. Jose-Hernandez Brothers said it would be the following Tuesday (five days later) until he could do the job (this meant we would miss attending our Grandson's Graduation Party). However, due situation, they took time off to come out and make the repairs that Saturday. I would highly recommend Hernandez Brothers Tractor Work & Dump Truck Service not just for their great work, but character."

"We wanted to give the outside of our 39-year-old house an updated look. We had 4 35-year-old oak trees and overgrown shrubs pretty much hiding the front of the house. We used Angi’s List to find Select Landscaping. Derek came out to look at our current landscaping and made suggestions on what we should change. We removed 3 of the 4 trees, removed all of the shrubs added an irrigation system and completely sodded the front and back yard. New flower beds were added to the front and back yard with attractive stone edging. Stone edging was added to the property line on both sides of the front yard to give our new lawn a defined look along with helping to prevent weeds from growing in our yard from our neighbors’ yards. Derek’s selection of shrubs and annual plants really enhanced the look of our house. Derek also worked with a Lighting contractor to install landscape lighting in the front yard. Derek suggested added steppingstones and landscape rock to cover an area next to the driveway where our trash cans sit. We also added a underground drainage system to redirect rainwater from our roof downspouts to a pop-up drain release closer to the street which has greatly minimized erosion in the yard. Working with a single contractor has made this major landscaping update very easy. Derek would bring the sub-contractors as we worked out details of each phase of the update. The only negative comment we have is the Irrigation contractor did poor work and then filed for bankruptcy when they “finished” our project. Overall, I would recommend Select Landscaping and Derek for your landscaping updates. He has been able to handle our project which I would consider large with no issues."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

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.

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.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.
