"Jose came out initially for the quote. Which was very timely ( within a day or 2). Upon meeting him, i was impressed, very polite, attentive, and he asked questions. Some of the questions were repeated, which i appreciated. He was making sure we didn't miss anything. We walked my property, and he listened to everything i said. He was very down to earth, easy to talk to. The next day, he sent me photos of some of the jobs he had finished, before & after. I was impressed. That weekend, he sent me a reasonable quote, which i accepted, happily because i had a previous landscaper that was lazy and left a bit behind. Jose had his work cut out for him. He called me very quickly after and said he had a cancelation and asked if i minded that he came out, i believe that same weekend?. I said ABSOLUTELY!! He came with 3 workers, including his father ( i thought that was sweet). What a job!!! They were here all day long, sometimes on their hands & knees picking grass and weeds. Hard workers, WOW! The experience & technique in trimming my bushes and smaller shrubbery were impeccable. My hydrangea looked so bad, but after they performed their art, she looked beautiful and alive. The edging came out immaculate so much so that my neighbor walked over and asked them how they did that and also complemented them and myself later on. They laid mulch so nicely within the lines and growth. I took before and after pictures. I continue to get compliments by strangers just walking by, and my neighbors asked for their information. I highly recommend Jose and his respectful crew. He has agreed to help with some other things on the days my health isn't at its best. Digging holes, pulling weeds, etc. With notice and some compensation, of course. I am so pleased. I was very excited that day because my beautiful yard had NEVER looked better. What a great bunch. I can't wait to see them for my mow. I gave them a nice tip because they earned it. THANK YOU, GUYS SO MUCH! SEE YOU SOON! ?"

We are a full service Excavation and Trucking Company with 30+ years of experience. Specializing in Complete Septic System Installation and Repair. New or Failing System we perform perk and have Design Engineers we work with your particular project. Demolition of any Building and removal of debris. We do not perform septic pump outs.
"Septic tanks were left exposed, site was a mess, and vent pipe was not at the required height. We talked with him a month before we anticipated water connection, so he knew our timelines. We attempted to contact him every day for a week to schedule final inspection after water was connected, but got no response. It took two emails from the city for him to sign the certificate of compliance."

Mulch and topsoil services FAQs
Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.
Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.
Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.
No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.
Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
