"Taylor was friendly and respectful. The only problem we had with the company was he doesn't accept cash. He goes through a paid company where you have to leave your credit card number. After my husband talked to him about we don't deal with that kind of thing when we don't know anything about the company. He understood and let my husband pay cash when he came to pick up the dumpster."

"Aaron is efficient, dependable, hardworking, polite and very conscientious about doing an amazing job. Tore down 3 dilapidated cottages, cleared the foundation to where you couldn't even tell there were cottages there, hauled away the debris and did a few extra things for us. Pricing is very fair. We plan on hiring him to do more work for us. We would highly recommend A&R."

"I'd like to thank Mark Rosio & his crew for the beautiful job they did installing a new asphalt roof w/ black seamless gutters on our log home. First of all, his quote was $5K cheaper than the other roofers & he offered a 10% discount for cash (which was a bit spooky for me initially but he has renewed my faith there really are good & honest contractors) & they showed up promptly as promised. The crew had a few warm days & very cold days, but completed everything regardless & really did a nice job. They also picked up their things & were very nice to visit with as well. Honestly, if Mark did other projects, he'd be our go to guy but roofing is his specialty, to which we're grateful. Fyi: He presented all the required certificates & licensing required in WI, to me before payment which I was happy about as well. Thank you Mark & Crew for your great job."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

It is a common belief that excavation is easier or less costly when done in the summer or when the ground is not frozen. Seasons have little effect on when excavation can occur; however, inclement weather can prolong the duration of the job and potentially increase costs. For this reason, those in rainy climates may opt for seasons with milder weather.

The average cost of excavation is around $3,200. Most jobs fall somewhere between $500 and $15,000, depending on the amount of soil to remove, whether or not there are landscaping features or structures in the vicinity that could complicate the excavation, and the quality and contents of the soil. Larger jobs will naturally cost more, as will those in tight spaces that demand manual excavation as opposed to using heavy machinery. Hard soil and tree roots can also extend the job and drive up your labor costs.

On average, you’re looking at about 12 hours to dig 100 linear feet. Your actual work time will come down to how many twists and turns there are when digging—such as rocky soil, tree roots, obstructions, and whether the ground is frozen.

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.
