"All of the jobs were done above expectations! The craftsmanship and attention to detail were second to none. The professional attitude that was taken with each one led to the next one being requested. One can not go wrong with the services of Smithsonian, led by their Master Mason, Steve Smith!"

"They did an amazing job! A sinkhole formed after a utility did some work near my driveway (along with other damage they caused on a separate occasion). Also, the driveway was less than 3 years old and was sinking near the garage due to poor installation by the builders of the house. RoadMax came out to give me a free estimate and explained everything very clearly. They even honored the quote even after 8 months of waiting for the utility to agree to pay for the damage. Their willingness to contact the utility company on my behalf really helped resolve the issue. The new driveway is perfect and looks great! The workers were very professional and did a great job. RoadMax will be my go-to paving company going forward. Highly recommend! I just wish I had some better before pictures to demonstrate the transformation."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history.
