"Dan came out right away and gave an estimate on replacing our 2 car driveway. We decided to expand the side yard to make a 4 car driveway, and he accommodated the day of the start of work. Gave us an awesome price! He and his son were here 3 days, and finished everything. They are clean, professional and friendly. I would recommend Ultimate Concrete to anyone! They do other types of work as well. Thank you Dan!"

They were extremely prompt in communication and planning, coming to the job site early and working until I was completely satisfied. Chris the President, personally supervised the job and made recommendations to improve the plan and the project based on his experience and the site conditions.

"The work was excellent. The project was completed in the exact time frame that I was told when I hired them. I had numerous estimates given and M&W charged me a third of what had been quoted by other contractors. AND THEY QUOTED ME FIRST. They were also kind enough to work in a few other small projects I hadnt previously planned. The owner William is very professional and his crew is as well. They did a wonderful job and I will definitely call them first before any other contractor when I'm ready for more work in the future!"

"I've had work done many years ago, where the work done by people that were not as professional as Jimmy would only last a few years - all the work he has done has been fabulous, reasonable in price. The work up here has to be done in a special way, and his has been fantastic with how long it has lasted. I am very happy, he has done some special things for us to get the prices as low as possible. If we had somebody else do it, it would probably cost twice as much."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

Yes, new home construction will always require building permits, no matter where you live. In most cases, you’ll need a general construction permit, along with plumbing and electrical permits for the utility lines in your home. Depending on where you live, you’ll likely find that you also need permits for things like connection to a sewage system or installing exterior components, like decks, driveways, patios, and curb cutouts. Leave navigating the permits required for new home construction to a professional to ensure your home is built legally and safely.

When planning for land survey costs, you should consider the following elements as major contributors to the overall cost:

  • Size of your property in terms of acres or square feet

  • Complexity of the terrain in terms of hills, elevation changes, rocks, water, and other features

  • Type of survey you need (boundary survey, topographic survey, or a combination of survey types)

  • Distance traveled for the professional surveyor

You should always calculate real estate development costs on a case-by-case basis, so there’s no specific formula to estimate your total. You should speak with a local construction manager to see what you’ll need to do in terms of clearing and leveling the land, connecting utilities, and pulling permits for construction. A professional will be able to get you an accurate estimate for land development.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

Land surveys don’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’t make any changes to your property, many states only guarantee the accuracy of a land survey for five to ten years.
