"Kendra came out ASAP to evaluate the job - which was greatly appreciated since tree location & condition made it very dangerous…possible landing on home. David and Adam were awesome! They were professional& concerned about tree removal safely! Removed seven trees in all. Very hard workers. Had to work in tight spots using a lift- trees were 70 ft tall! Absolutely incredible team at very reasonable price."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with North West Home Solutions, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work in restoring our basement. From the very beginning, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to detail. They took the time to listen to our needs and concerns, offering expert advice on the best way to approach the restoration. The project was completed on time, and the crew made sure to keep everything clean and organized throughout the process. What really stood out was their commitment to ensuring everything was done right, and they didn’t cut corners."

"These are a dedicated couple of founders who really bring a lot of experience to the table even though they are young. The best part about them is they are very flexible and willing to look at many aspects of the job creatively to create a quote and a final result that the customer is happy with. I had a other companies kind of strong arming me with â this is how itâ s doneâ - and only Higher Earth were able to consider what we were looking to achieve and the price that we were hoping to achieve it and make it happen!"

"We needed a new roof on our cabin and garage so we called Aspen Contracting after seeing their signs and looking them up online. They came out the next day and did a very thorough inspection of the property. After the inspection, we were told that there appeared to be some damages to the roof from the recent storms and that we may want to file a claim. We did just that. Aspen then met our adjuster on site and assisted them with their assessment. Aspen brought out a full detailed estimate to give to the adjuster as well as their measurements and pictures. Needless to say, the damage was fairly sever and warranted a full replacement on the house. The garage and shed showed no damage due to tree coverage. Aspen gave us a price on those as well because we figured we should just do them all at once. The project started the following Thursday. The crew was very professional and never seemed to stop working. Not sure I've ever had dealings with a harder working group. They had all 3 buildings completed in 2 days!! I would see and hear the old roofing being torn off but when they were all finished, the yard was as if nothing had ever happened. They ever repair some fascia & siding while they were there. We were so impressed with Aspen that we had them inspect our friends house on the other side of town. Aspen found no damage to the roof and said that the roof had a few years left before it truly needed to be replaced. Aspen will DEFINITELY be getting a call. Our roof(s) look absolutely amazing and come with a lifetime labor & material warranty to boot!!! I will be referring Aspen Contracting Inc of Michigan to everyone!"

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.
