"When Jim beginning working on a projeect he won't take a break and things done on time. He was able to finish up my project in a couple days. Jim shows up a lot earlier than expected to the job and I had a great time working with him. I certainly will bring back to do more work!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I couldn’t be happier with the landscaping work! He did an incredible job transforming our outdoor space and brought our vision to life. From the beginning, he was professional, dependable, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure we were happy with the results. He paid attention to every detail and took the time to make sure everything was done correctly. Whether it was the plants, landscaping, rocks, cleanup, irrigation, or overall design, the quality of his work was outstanding. Everything looks beautiful, clean, and professionally done. What really stood out to us was his work ethic and the pride he takes in what he does. He was respectful of our property, communicated well throughout the project, and went above and beyond our expectations. If you’re looking for a landscaper who is hardworking, reliable, talented, and takes pride in his work, I highly recommend him. We absolutely love how everything turned out and would definitely hire Alberto."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

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.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
