I plan to hire Tyler for several more projects this year because then I can be assured they will be done correctly."

"We had a complete house remodel done, exterior and interior, by Coal River Specialties. They removed and replaced all of the old siding and also painted the new siding and trim, painted the existing garage door (it was brown), replaced the exterior garage door, put up the light fixtures, replaced ALL of the interior Sheetrock, prepped and painted it all, replaced flooring throughout the entire home, replaced light fixtures throughout the entire house interior and exterior, built the back porch, replaced pickets on the side porch to match the back porch, put up railings and pickets on the front porch and so so so many other things that are required when remodeling a house. We absolutely LOVE everything! They did an awesome job! Here are just a few pictures….."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

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.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.
