"Mr. Blonquist did a very good job. He communicated well and his workmanship for this type of manufacturing was very good. He brought some good ideas to the project and I will hire him again. In fact, I have suggested my son use him for another project."

"Rob and Preston installed a new sprinkler system in my yard. They were very professional and thorough during the initial walk-through and bid. They were excellent at communicating when they would be on site, what work would be done. Additionally, they continually kept me apprised progress and of any minor changes that were required due to unanticipated obstacles. Prior to commencing, Rod met with the city to make sure that everything met code. This illustrated a high level of professionalism. After the work was completed, they cleaned up everything very well and walked me through the system, educating me on the controller, filter, zones, coverage, etc. When dealing with contractors, I HIGHLY VALUE TRUST. THEY INDEED EARNED MINE. I highly recommend their services to anyone."

"This company has been amazing to work with. Matt and Seth were so attentive to all of my needs and were willing to do absolutely everything I asked them to. This was not, by any means, an easy remodel, and I am beyond thrilled about how it turned out. They certainly went above and beyond in everything they did. I literally have my dream bathroom, thanks to them. I would highly recommend Peaking Engineering and Construction."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.
