Eddie Axner Construction

Description of Work: Provided estimate

Description of Work: I bought a home and whenever there was a significant amount of rain, the hill in the back, I would have water in the backyard, in spite of the water drainage design, up to my house. I had several different providers out to look at it and they always said it was gophers and the problem could not be repaired. It was three years that I had this problem. Thank goodness for Eddie Axner. He came out and discovered that the property next door was funneling water down into my back yard and the drain, required by law, was not lined so his water would saturate my back hill. He correctly diagnosed it and lined the drain correctly that corrected the drainage. It was covered by my insurance.

Description of Work: My gravel driveway is very steep, had the wrong type of gravel material on it when I moved here, and therefore turned into a bumpy, slippery nightmare. I wanted the bumps to be smoothed and new material to be placed in a way that would prevent erosion of the driveway. One Axner employee came out in a water truck pulling a trailer with a backhoe and two grading attachments. He was punctual and professional. We talked about what needed to be done and how to accomplish it; I was glad that his suggestions were right in line with what I had speculated. He then got started with the backhoe, grading and smoothing the existing material. Later another employee delivered the new gravel material (which was exactly the material I had requested); after dumping the material he left. The first employee continued using the water truck and backhoe to grade and smooth the new material. He then compacted the gravel with the water truck before he left. Because he was done earlier than expected, he had time to add a water bar farther up on my driveway (something I had planned to do by hand, but got a much better result with his backhoe).
