"Trey Boyz Construction was contracted to demolish and replace a sidewalk and driveway. Dennis of Trey Boyz Constuction was very professional throughout the entire project. He explained in layman's terms, any questions that I may have had,throughout the project. The project remained on schedule and was always properly staffed. I would hire this company without hesitation for future projects."

"From beginning to end, VRN Masonry was a pleasure to work with! Rui was quick to respond when setting up our estimate meeting and this continued throughout the project. Work began earlier than expected which was much appreciated. Unfortunately, the weather did not want to cooperate for several weeks which delayed the project but Rui gave us updates for when him and his team could come by to work. Near the end of the project, they even came out on a Sunday to avoid more bad weather that was predicted for the week. Everything is complete now and we could not be happier! VRN Masonry did a fantastic job and I greatly appreciated his responsiveness and receptiveness."

"After finding Tillerman Gardens online and requesting an estimate for substantial hardscape/landscape work on our newly renovated house, we were pleasantly surprised to find out that Jesse, the owner, actually grew up in our neighborhood! On top of being a Takoma Park local, and an all around friendly, honest, business owner, we also came to learn that he does great work as well! His team completely transformed our hardscape areas, including installing a beautiful flagstone walkway and patio, a perfectly graded cement driveway, iron railings on our steps, and plants in a number of locations. On top of that, some of the work required some touch up and sealing and Jesse and his team have come out a couple of times later this spring to do that work unprompted. There's a little bit left, but I know they'll be around to finish it as they've taken care of us every step of the way. Even better, everything was done in budget. Look no further! These are your go to guys for all landscape/hardscape work in the area!"

"Original had a carpet runner going up the stairs that I removed. They came out to remove the staples I could not get off, sand the floors because of the small holes caused by the staples and restained the steps. They did do a good job. Missed some of the staples though and a couple spots could have been sanded more."

FAQs for excavation projects in Bladensburg, MD

Depth depends on the type of installation and the regulations in your area. Water supply lines typically require 24 inches, while drainage pipes are often installed 36 inches below grade. For most general projects, a depth of 12 to 24 inches and a width of about eight inches is sufficient. Sticking to these specs keeps your utilities safe, code-compliant, and easier to maintain later.

When you need to run utilities underground, you’ve got two main options: boring or trenching. Boring employs directional drilling to install utilities without exposing a continuous channel, while trenching requires excavating an open channel to place utilities securely. Directional drilling preserves landscape integrity, whereas trenching provides direct access for installation, albeit with greater surface disruption. This clear comparison helps you select the method best suited to your project.

Plan on 12 hours to dig 100 linear feet when the soil is cooperative and you can work continuously. This timeframe applies when work is performed consistently and methodically. Factors such as rocky soil, tree roots, obstructions, and frozen ground increase the overall duration, demanding extra planning and effort. Comprehensive operational planning ensures that every challenge is managed efficiently and the project is completed on schedule.

If you want your yard to look untouched, laying fresh sod over the trench is the quickest fix. New sod needs 30 to 45 days to root and blend with the rest of your lawn. A local sod pro can provide you with a firm timeline and tips to ensure the grass takes hold and maintains your curb appeal.
