"Needed a barbed wire fence installed between my neighbor and I, with corner and center supports. Only about 230 total feet. Hector and his crew showed up that morning when promised and got to work. They finished that afternoon and the fence was perfect. They did an exceptional job! I would not hesitate to recommend HM Services! In fact I will be using them in the future!"

"This young man did an excellent job fixing my water draining in my front yard. His swells are very unnoticeable but effective and I think that’s what makes good excavation. I would’ve guessed he’s been doing this way longer that he told me. This man is barely getting started, thank you!"

"Excellent demo results of a backyard in-ground concrete pool, along with layering with concrete and dirt. Top was "dog friendly" artificial turf which looks amazing! Attached pool spa was converted into a beautiful spot for plants and, to my surprise, Paul's crew kindly decorated with some colorful plants! So now we have a wonderful green backyard to enjoy! Great results and would highly recommend!"

"I needed a French drain put in my yard. I called different companies to find the right company at a fair price. This company is outstanding. When they were finished they cleaned up everything and it looks great. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"They did great work. My bridge was impassable due recent flooding/ erosion. We were stranded at home. Unable to get out/across. Jose-Hernandez Brothers said it would be the following Tuesday (five days later) until he could do the job (this meant we would miss attending our Grandson's Graduation Party). However, due situation, they took time off to come out and make the repairs that Saturday. I would highly recommend Hernandez Brothers Tractor Work & Dump Truck Service not just for their great work, but character."
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.
