M.E. Flow, Inc. has been providing exceptional heating, cooling, and plumbing services to residents of northern Virginia since 1951. We are family-owned and operated, and currently in our third generation. We are a team of professionals who are licensed to ensure compliance with the laws and codes of the state of Virginia. With office locations in Leesburg, Winchester, and Alexandria, there’s always a ME Flow team member nearby to serve you quickly. What’s unique about M.E. Flow is that the entire company adopts the original family tradition of our "customer first" philosophy in order to provide the best service possible. This foundation is what sets us apart from other contractors. We have many long-term customers who continue to choose ME Flow because of our honor and integrity. We get to know our customers on a first-name basis and check in on this community that we love so much. We promise that we will never sell you anything you don't need - serving your best interest is our policy. We will always treat your home like it's our own - with respect. Offering weekend service at weekday rates! Emergency service available 7 days a week! If you are looking to get away from burning oil, we do offer an in home consultation to help you choose a new HVAC system.

"An M.E. Flow tech came to the house we own in Virginia to do the plumbing inspection covered by our maintenance agreement with the company. Our tenant had noted that a toilet was leaking, so the repair that was made appeared to be warranted; but $174 was, I thought, pretty exorbitant, since the tech was already there and it was a simple repair. But M.E. Flow has ADAMANTLY refused to provide me with a breakdown of what I was charged for: I sent an e-mail (8 May), called the company (20 May - the person I talked to said she would have a breakdown sent), and wrote a letter (22 Jun) asking: with NO response. I consider this clear deceit and deception. How much was the part; was I charged the full rate as if it were a completely separate visit? Don't know, and I SHOULD. I would NEVER deal with this company. They also did a minor repair to our HVAC system on a different visit, and again: no details (cost of the part, labor charge) for the $177 charge. They clearly have NO intention of being upfront with their customers, so: buyer beware, you're not dealing with people who care about their customers. One other note: Just found out where we live that some HVAC/plumbing companies have their service people working ON COMMISSION. Isn't that depressing. We have to worry now about being "uphold" so the tech can get a higher commission. They have a very vested interest in trying to sell their customers as much as they can. Don't know if M.E. Flow does that, but worth asking if you even think about using them Might account for the rating given by the customer below this review.."

For more than 60 years, ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing has provided the highest-quality basement waterproofing, crawlspace encapsulation, radon mitigation, mold removal and foundation repair solutions for homes and commercial properties. We lead with a promise of Trusted Five-Star Service, which means the customer experience is at the center of everything we do. Since 1958, we have been steadfast in keeping this promise and in upholding the values on which '58 Foundations was built: trust, teamwork, integrity, respect and communication. This comes across in all that we do: from the initial call to job completion, our customers are met with a knowledgeable, caring, and professional staff prepared to offer a five-star experience that is unmatched in the home repair industry.

"If you’re considering 58 Foundations, do yourself a favor and stop right now. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this company to anyone—let alone friends or family. Their complete disregard for accountability is nothing short of infuriating. At first, things appeared to go smoothly. The workers were professional, and the workmanship seemed decent. But the illusion of competence quickly disintegrated when it came time for the building inspection. The city inspector requires a letter from the project engineer verifying that the work is safe, sound, and compliant with code. 58 Foundations flat-out refuses to provide this basic validation of their work. Why won’t they stand behind their project? Are they hiding shoddy, substandard work? As a homeowner, I’m now saddled with the mess of an open permit and no resolution in sight. This is unacceptable. If a company won’t back their work with a simple letter, what does that say about their integrity—or lack thereof? Didn't expect this kind of run around from a well established professional firm, save yourself the frustration and inevitable regret. Choose a company that honors their commitments and respects their customers. Once upon a time, 58 Foundations may have been reputable, but their crumbling standards are now painfully obvious. Don’t let their negligence become your problem."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

It takes two to three hours to trench 100 feet with a mechanical trencher or 10 to 12 hours if digging with a shovel. The total time to dig a trench depends on the depth, width, soil type, terrain, trencher type, and your level of experience. Digging in clay or rocky soil takes longer than soft ground.  

It all depends on the scope of the project. A trencher can certainly save time and energy, but you might not need to dig that deep in the first place. Aside from the depth of the trench, the quality of the soil matters. If it’s light, soft soil, you might try a shovel first. However, if the soil is rocky and hard or there are obstructions in it, like tree roots, a machine trencher might be the better option.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.
