Q: How long is a land survey good for?

• <div><p>Land surveys don&rsquo;t technically expire. They do serve as a point of reference and a snapshot of your property, though, so as soon as you make changes to your property (and even if your neighbor makes certain changes to theirs), your existing land survey becomes inaccurate, and a new one must be done. Even if you don&rsquo;t make any changes to your property, many states only guarantee the accuracy of a land survey for five to ten years.</p></div>

Q: How do you tell if a tree is a historic landmark?

• <div><p>This is fairly rare, but sometimes the local government or a group like a historical society will label a tree as a landmark, or historical item. These designations almost always come with a small, on-site plaque for identification, but you should also be able to look up protected trees in your area on a city website or similar list. If the tree in question is a landmark, call your local government and ask how to proceed before making any plans.</p></div>

Q: How do well drillers know where to drill?

• <div><p>Professional well contractors may use electromagnetic mapping to look for places with a high likelihood of water. Water access can vary significantly, even on the same property, so it can be difficult to know where to drill if you don&rsquo;t have specialized tools to look for water.</p></div>

Q: What do land surveys typically include?

• <div><p>Property lines, building locations, and potential encroachments are mapped.</p></div>

Mr. Yates did an excellent job removing two trees from my property. The trees were dead and at risk of falling on my home and power lines. His work was quick and efficient and was willing to work with me on scheduling issues. Would recommend Mr. Yates for any of your land service needs!

I had an very large oak stump that I needed to grind. I contacted Albertson land. They came out the same day to give an estimate. They offered a fair price that I accepted. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the work they did. They feel that the job isn’t done until I’m satisfied. If you’re...

Very happy with the way my home turned out, but the process of getting all the finish work (easiest part of the job) was a hassel. First of all no one informed us that our land had to be level or that we had to pay one year of home insurance before the home was delivered. We found this out the...
