We started in July of 2012 and began with one truck, a dream, and a passion for plumbing. We are still a “Mom and Pop” operation with a few service vehicles and office staff, yet we are still family owned and operated. Junior worked for very large plumbing companies and was simply tired of spending his days trying to convince people that excellent service must come with a hefty price tag. Plumbing became more about salesmanship and less about craftsmanship, so we saw a serious need to bring a family feel and great customer experiences back to the plumbing industry. Our team services every customer as though they’re walking into their own family member’s home, and our hope is that our customers all feel like a part of our family as well. Once you work with Junior’s, you will never have to call THE plumber again, you can now call YOUR plumber, at Junior’s Plumbing!

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

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.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.
