"Jeremiah is the owner of Anchored Solutions. When he says he will be there you can take his word. He redid our deck in composite (10x14) and put up a wooden awning on the same size on our other deck. I am amazed at the detail of his work and how talented this young man is. I would recommend Anchored Solutions to do your project anytime."

Dillion and his crew did an excellent job executing what we had discussed and finished the project on time. We will definitely use him and his crew for any future landscaping projects that we have."

"I used earthworm to demolish and fill an inground pool. I looked at several companies to do the job and none were as affordable, or most importantly confident that they could complete the job as Earthworm. They not only completed the job in only a day they also demolished the pool correctly so I will not have any drainage iusses in the future. I would highly reccomend Earthwom for similar projects."

"A few years ago I moved to a new house. One of my side yards was sloped quite a bit, going down to a creek. I also had a backyard that was quite rutted and unsuitable for family games. In the spring of 2020 our road was getting paved, which involved lots of extra "free" dirt being moved out of the area. I had at least 15-20 dump trucks of dirt dumped on my property. My plans were to build a retaining wall in one section and grade and reseed parts of my property. I was planning to move the dirt myself to save some dollars. However, this would have taken me three weeks or more to do because of all the roots and debris that had to be cleared. I ended up hiring Rob and in a matter of just a couple days he moved the dirt around for me and also tilled it smooth several times. All I had to do was seed the lawn and cover it with straw. For this project he worked around my time schedule the best he could. As he moved the dirt around, my family was removing roots and debris. Rob had the tools and the knowledge to help me create a more usable lawn and make it look so much better than if I would have tackled this project on my own. His price was very reasonable and fair. If I would have tried to rent similar machines to do the project myself it would have cost me more and taken longer. My sons were also grateful that I spared them many weeks of work. If I had a future project, I would not hesitate to hire Rob again."

"Went OK. They did the work and it 'mostly worked' when they were done. I say mostly because the pressure valve was blowing off of the boiler when they were done (This was NOT happening before they had done the work). I had noticed this the day after I had paid. I contacted them and they wanted to replace the expansion tank and charge me $200. I asked - shouldn't this be covered under the initial work of $4600? They said the part wasn't explicitly in the quote. Frankly at this point to replace what really was a $40 part and half hour of time to do a fully finished job (for $4600). For 1. How am I supposed to know (as a customer) what should be on the quote for a fully finished job (pumps, piping, etc? - they are the expert) 2. How am I supposed to know this isnt their fault. (Shouldnt an autofilling expansion tank be connected to the incoming water supply?) Frankly not standing fully behind their work and making sure they do everything to do a good, finished job - left a 'bad' taste in my mouth. In the end I replaced the auto-filling expansion tank with an Extrol expansion tank for $40 and it took me less than an hour. After that it all appears to work."

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Grand Rapids, MI

You can excavate in winter, but frozen soil slows down the process and increases labor costs. Many grading companies offer discounted rates during their off-season, so ask for a winter quote and weigh the savings against a longer timeline. A brief conversation with a local professional will help determine whether cold-weather excavation is suitable for your site.

Foundation digs can be completed in as little as three days or take up to three weeks. Soil density, access, weather, and hidden obstacles all play a role, so every timeline is a bit different. Have your contractor walk the site and flag any potential issues early—clear expectations help keep both the schedule and budget on track.

You must always call 811 before excavating. Dial 811 a few days in advance so that utility crews can mark underground lines and ensure the area is safe for digging. Hitting a buried cable or gas pipe can be both dangerous and expensive, and many municipalities will not issue permits unless the site is flagged correctly.

To remove soil during an excavation project, your crew will load the spoil into dump trucks with a backhoe or excavator, haul it to a disposal site, and return for the next load. Efficient hauling keeps the work zone clear and the project moving. Depending on the site and volume of osil, multiple trucks may rotate to maintain a steady flow.
