"We were very happy with their work.  No leaks during very heavy rainstorms says it all!  They were very professional and followed up after a couple of rain storms to ensure that we had no further leak problems.  Their work was very neat, and the area they had to excavate to make the repair was very nicely graded. It was almost as if no work at all had been done in that area.  Based upon our experience, I would definitely recommend them again.

"If you need to replace your underground oil tank, then you're freaking out about the expense and possible catastrophic complications.   So do yourself a favor and call Willard.    This wonderful family company makes everything easy.    

Our very positive experience started with the initial visit by Josh.    Then company owner Billy Willard answered all our many questions.   Considering the options, we decided to purchase a Roth tank.    Not just more compact than other brands, it also has a 30-year warranty.   Willard is the only company in Virginia certified to install Roths.    

Our work was scheduled quickly.    Willard called Miss Utility and also our county -- we didn't have to do a thing.   The Roth tank fit neatly into our garage and Billy and his crew took great care with every detail of its complicated installation.    The removal of our underground tank went really well too, even though the tank turned out to be quite deep.    Frank and Josh worked very carefully to expose but not damage the old tank, and to transfer oil into the new tank.    Then the old tank was prepared so the residual oil could be pumped for recycling.    We hadn't even realized this step would take place, because Willard had made all the arrangements.   Next the tank was lifted and soil samples were taken.      Then, using a truckload of fill Willard supplied as well as the excavated soil, the enormous hole was filled, carefully graded and sown with grass seed.     

You can imagine how many heavy vehicles were in motion to accomplish all this, yet there was not the slightest damage to our fence, landscaping, driveway or house. 

Meanwhile, Tim was connecting the new Roth tank to our furnace, working with ingenuity around the maze of ducting. pipes and wires in our basement.   He wasn't satisfied until he was sure the connection was perfect.   

We thought the entire crew was awesome, and that opinion was validated when the county fire inspector approved everything they'd done.   The Willards and Josh Delaney were not just expert, they were really friendly and considerate.    It was a pleasure to have them around,  They turned what had been a huge nightmare into a perfectly executed solution.

"Below is the portion of the email sent to me by Waterproofing Inc. explaining what work they would do and the cost: "Steve suggests waterproofing you entire front wall (20 feet) and installing one sump pump. The price would be $2400. Here is what he would do: Remove concrete about 18 inches wide depending on how wide the footing is. Excavate trench starting at 11 inches deep graded to 18 inches at sump well. Install gravel bed 2 inches in trench. Install plastic plate (Miradrain) across footer and up 18 inches. Install 4-inch perforated flexible ADS drain pipe. Fill in with gravel. Excavate sump well hole 22 inches wide and 36 inches deep. Install 5-inch gravel bed in sump well hole. Install plastic sump well (18 inches wide and 30 inches deep. Install 1/2 Horsepower Zoeller sump pump in sump well. Bolt down lid on well. Run discharge line out wall far enough so water does not recirculate, up to a maximum of 10 feet. Repour concrete to original thickness up to 3 inches. All debris is removed from house and the floor is broom swept. Lifetime guarantee against water in contracted area and a five year warranty on sump pump." I did not hire Waterproofing Inc. because out of the three estimates I received for the above work, Waterproofing Inc. was the most expensive on this particular occasion."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

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.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.
