"Very respectful and friendly. Needed to have a site cleared for construction and they were able to accommodate my needs as I lived on the property at the time of clearing and grading. I was more than satisfied with the results and time it took for them to complete the job."

"This is the second time I've used Silverback and I'm about to call for a third job. They're fantastic! I had an old shed filled with pesticides and rat poop that I wanted gone. Without me even having to be there, Chris came out, took a look and then called me with an estimate of $450.00. I came home later that day and that longstanding eyesore was gone, the rat pooped cleaned up and the pesticides stored in a box and left for me to dispose of at the next neighborhood hazardous waste drop off day. Another great experience."

"Tom was an outstanding contractor.  His team worked diligently for 2+ months.  They were flexible, incorporating needs as the project evolved.  We did a TON of work.  Demo: removed patio, 14 trees, and existing greenery.  Fence work: repaired and refinished fences around entire perimeter.  Hardscape: built large new stone patio and sitting wall in back, extended front steps and built new stone walkway in front.  All new greenery (trees, plants, sod).  Redid drainage including large collection drains.  New irrigation.  New lighting including two transformers.  Driveway stain.  Everything was done professionally.

"Larry did great work. He is the right balance of meticulous and efficient. He communicated what was needed, and he spelled out his plan of attack. I have used him on multiple occasions for painting, patch and repair, and some help with basic plumbing. I have recommended him to friends and family. Thanks for your good efforts."

"Colin did everything we requested and then some. He was able to negotiate a steep hillside and clear areas that previous were a challenge to do by hand. He was also able to locate better 40yd dumpster deals then the local waste management company. He then followed up with completing the security fence repairs. We will work with him in the future and welcome your questions."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

Surveys completed by licensed surveyors can be recorded with a local surveying records office, and in most cases, they will be. Filing survey reports categorize them as legal documents, and they can be used whenever legal documentation of your property’s boundaries is needed. While you’re not required to file survey documents, it’s a good idea to do so. 

Measure from zero on a measuring tape by placing the metal hook right up against the edge of what you need to measure. You can also latch the hook onto an open edge—of, say, a table—to accurately measure as well. If you begin at the 1-inch mark, you'll need to subtract an inch from your total.

A boundary survey measures the boundary lines of the property, only the length of each property line and their locations. A land survey includes a more in-depth measurement of the property, including the heights and depths of the terrain measured by a topographic survey. A boundary survey is typically the most cost-effective method for marking and measuring property lines.

Costs vary, but you can expect to spend between $1,000 and $4,000 to prepare land for a mobile home or before you build a house. You’ll need to clear enough land for the foundation, which may require leveling or grading, as well as removing trees, stumps, and plants. Don’t forget to plan for permits and fees and the installation of a gas line, water line, and sewer main.

Permit requirements to clear land vary by municipality, so whether or not you need permits depends on where you live and what you’re removing from the land. Some building departments will require permits for any underground work or excavation, meaning grinding down tree stumps on your property would require permits. Others mandate individual permits for each tree you remove. You can contact your local building department or a land-clearing specialist near you to see if permits are necessary for your job.
