"RUN, don't walk, away from Anthony & Sylvan. I don't know how this company is still in business. The 9 months it took to build our pool was an absolute nightmare. Extremely poor communication and totally apathetic attitude from everyone involved with the process. They don't even try to hide the fact that they simply don't care. And it doesn't get any better once your pool is complete. We went through 3 project managers, each one worse than the last. Our current PM, Gabriel Hodge, fell off the face of the earth. I can't stop laughing at the reviewer who called him "hands down the best project manager ever". Must be a family member. We've been trying to get in touch with him since the end of March with no response to phone calls, voicemails or texts. We finally gave up on him. I managed to get ahold of our construction scheduler, Cynthia, who agreed to help me with our punch list of items that still need repair (our pool deck is cracking and peeling off after only 3 months, mismatched paint on our stucco pool skirt, broken flagstone/grout around the spa). I sent her photos and the punch list items, and she assured me she would get these scheduled for repair and they were booking out about two weeks. Well, that was a month ago and not only have we not had any repairs done, she's gone MIA as well. I've emailed and left several voicemails with no response. I've tried calling Dan Barrett, who's listed as the General Manager for San Antonio, multiple times and the phone just rings and rings and rings, no answer and no voicemail. For days now, I've tried calling just about every single phone number listed on the website for San Antonio, Austin and Houston and LITERALLY NOBODY ANSWERS THE PHONE. I wouldn't recommend A&S to my worst enemy. Just awful."

"Fernando, his son Frankie, and Jeb Kraft (substituting for a vacationing crew member) were excellent. Their experience, work ethic, and attitude were outstanding. Every issue that arose as they repaired work another company did several years ago was solved by Fernando. He always provided several options and we selected the best one for the situation. Because Fernando hand-dug the needed holes and trenches he had no problem when he encountered the main electric line several feet from where 811 had marked it."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The cost to dig a trench ranges from $400 to $1,200 per 100 linear feet, depending on the soil, depth, and width. Plan to spend $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching (it’ll be on the higher end if you have rocky soil). Renting a trencher costs $100 to $250 per hour, depending on the type of trencher. 

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. 

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

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.
