"We recently completed a major exterior renovation with Mike, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience or the final result. From day one, Mike made the entire process smooth, organized, and surprisingly stress‑free. He kept us updated at every stage, answered questions before we even had to ask, and handled every detail with total professionalism. Every subcontractor he brought in was skilled, respectful, and conscientious. Our property was kept clean and livable throughout, even while tackling big projects like a new roof, stucco work, window wells, and a full garage and workshop addition. It was clear that Mike holds his team to a high standard. The finished product is beautiful, and the craftsmanship shows in every corner. We’re grateful for how easy Mike made such a large renovation feel. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a contractor who is reliable, communicative, and genuinely committed to quality."

"These guys ROCK! They went above and beyond to get my project done in a timely manner. They installed a new sprinkling system, they graded my property and installed sod. Also, they did curbing, fixed my leaning retaining wall & installed gravel! Communication was spot on. My place looks fantastic! Can’t wait to plant stuff next spring. I highly recommend using them and would hire them again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

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.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.
