"I hired coastal landscape construction to install a concrete walk way on my new construction house and couldn’t be happier with the finished product and the company. Bobby was professional and very easy to work with, his crew was skilled, and they left the jobsite cleaner than when he got there. After working with a lot of contractors building this house I can’t say enough good things about this company. Highly recommend"

"Nick has done a lot for us. More than can be checked with one box. This project has sprouted legs but Nick has been honest and provided solid advice throughout. We had flooding and he started off providing drying equipment. He then assessed the issue that was causing the flooding and has fixed it by waterproofing the foundation, installing a french drain, and channel draining. While assessing the damage he found mold and has done full remediation to the basement. He continues to work on this project by offering counsel on who to hire on reinstallation s well. Nick has been a Godsend and has treated us fairly. I feel like his costs are very reasonable as well. Would highly recommend him and his crew."

"Anthony's work if fabulous. We started off with our numbers incorrect on the footage of the work but all was resolved in the end in a very professional manner. It's good to have a professional that can work things out. I will recommend him to anyone and plan to use him again."

"Justin Morris of ROC Construction was very knowledgable, nice and considerate. He did an excellent job not just installing the driveway but also keeping us informed about when he'd be coming by. Both my husband and I are very satisfied with the work done."

"I was having an acre cleared out in Spotsylvania, VA. Not only did they show up and get going without hesitation, they cleared and graded the land beautifully. They were amazingly professional and friendly, and I will definitely call them for any and everything I need done from here forward. They were honestly awesome. Thank you to everyone on the Shadowcast crew."

"Justin Morris of Roc Construction was hired to repair my driveway. It was an exceptional experience. Mr. Morris came to my home to give me an estimate. He showed up on time, did a thorough review of what needed to be accomplished, and gave me an estimate and a time-line. On the spot. The job was accomplished and we are extremely pleased with the work. We highly recommend Roc Construction."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.
