"I hired Eric with P4 construction to install a curtain drain in front of my house. He did a great job. He and his guys showed up on time, everything went as planned, and it was finished in the time he said it would be finished. I had A LOT of bids for this project because I needed it to be done right... I live on a hill and had a water problem that needed a real solution, and my neighbor recently had a drain put in that immediately clogged and doesn't work. Eric's plan made the most sense and was in alignment with my research on what I needed. Some of the other contractors wanted to put in a 2' deep drain, but my water problem went deeper (there's a 5' crawlspace under my porch where water was pouring into). He correctly moved the water out to the side of the house, (combined my gutter into it), and all the way down the hill emptying into a flatter area and into a gravel pit."

"Scope of project was removal of existing concrete pavers and hemlock stump, then installing 7-9 rockery flat steps made of natural basalt rockery rocks. We were thoroughly happy with the work from Seattle Rockeries. Harry and his crew were very knowledgeable, fast and friendly. Sharing pics of before and after."

"Brian and his team did an awesome job of replacing our 30 year old lawn with sod. It looks so much better now than the weeds we had before. He rototilled it then replaced with sod. He gave us tips for how to keep the lawn looking nice. He also cleaned out our garden beds from weeds and blackberry bushes. And added mulch to make it look nice. He added a stone pathway through the side yard to get to the backyard too which looks really nice. He is also looking at rebuilding our privacy fence for us too! We are really happy with Brian’s services."

"Jesse is an incredibly hard worker. He removed around 1000sq ft of blackberry bushes, which uncovered lots of junk left over from previous homeowners. He was generous enough to remove the junk along with the bushes, cleaning up our yard to make it safe for the kids to play."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

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

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.
