"Matt made it easy to get our landscaping overhaul. He got back to us quickly to provide a quote, recommended low- maintenance plants, removed all of the old mulch and dead plants, dug up stumps, trimmed trees and plants, replaced drip hoses, placed filter fabric, and spread mulch. He and his team did a great job. No issues, good communication, and trustworthy."

"We recently hired JH Concrete to pour a patio in our backyard, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial estimate to the final cleanup, their team was professional, punctual, and easy to work with. They took the time to properly prepare the area, paid attention to every detail, and delivered a high-quality finished product that exceeded our expectations. The patio looks fantastic and has completely transformed our outdoor space into an area our family can enjoy for years to come. The crew worked hard, communicated well throughout the project, and kept the job site clean and organized. If you're looking for a reliable concrete contractor who takes pride in their work and delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend JH Concrete. Their craftsmanship, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction truly set them apart."

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.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.
