"It was absolutely fantastic! I renovated that farm house about 16 years ago and used a lot of different contractors and I've never used a contractor that did exactly what he said he was going to do and actually exceeded my expectations."

"My husband and I were pleased with the service and the men.  They were pleasant and respectful and it is always our desire to help out a "mom and pop" business by using their services. 
Jonathan KNOWS his trees and actually climbs the trees himself while letting the other guys (sorry guys, can not remember names) know exactly what would happen and how to help him keep branches off the roof, wires and the neighbors vehicles! 
I called their number, spoke with Jonathan and the following day he came by to give us an estimate.  Should we need tree service in the future, I will be calling Mad-Family Tree Service.

Mr. Madison all smiles.

"I was very pleased with the service. Evidently the guts who did the estimate were not the same ones who came to do the work. they got the work done and cleaned up well but were aggravated that they were not adequately prepared for the job."

"Mr. Douglas was good but his price range didn't fit the other docks that were being built in the area. I hired a company that did my neighbors dock for 6K less and got more dock for the price I paid. When I compared the materials were the same but labor cost lost Mr. Douglas the building contract. I research through the county and found his prices above and beyond what other companies were charging for the same projects."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.
