"We contacted Mr. Parks via Angie's List.  His answer to our request was prompt and professional.  We set a date for the work and Mr. Parks followed up with a phone call.  He again called to verify and arrived right on time.  Their work was done quickly and professionally and our property was left clean and neat.  We highly recommend Thomas Parks Contracting.

"Our clay sewer line in our home was filling up with roots. We had had an emergency rooter company come out from our home warranty to deal with a clog and water running down the driveway; this other service tried to cheat us by claiming that our main pipe was collapsed and that they couldn't even feed the camera through it.
We called RichCo and Ben and Pablo came out early. They called ahead to make sure that showing up before the appointment would be ok, which it was - we wanted to be able to use our plumbing! So the early response was great. Ben did a camera inspection and showed us what he was seeing. He identified that roots were growing in at every 4' junction in the old clay pipe, and was easily able to get past the "collapse" (really a root ball) that the other company had "found."
After discussing our options, and not wanting to have to root out the pipes every year or so, my wife and I decided that if we could afford it we would have Richco replace the pipe. Ben and Pablo explained the various options to us and described in detail how they would perform the work.
We decided to have them perform a "trenchless" replacement where they would dig a hole at either end of the existing pipe, burst it out from the inside, and replace it in-place with a seamless polyethylene pipe. They clearly explained the scope of work and pointed out where they might have to do some extra digging and exactly how much this would affect the overall price of the job. The price was a little high for us, especially having just bought our house, but we decided we wanted the job done right and  were willing to pay a premium to ensure that we were working with a good, honest, and local company. Then Ben helped us get financing so that we could do the full replacement that we wanted to do! The financing option was a great way
to be able to afford such an expensive job. 
Unfortunately, one end of the pipe was going to have to come up in our landscaping. No problem for Richco! Vincente and Jose, with Pablo, did a great job: they bagged up all of our mulch, temporarily transplanted the flowers and shrubs that were in the way, and the restored everything to just the way it had been before they left.
They finished the job early, came in under the maximum estimated price, and left our property looking better than they found it. They handled 100% of the hassle with landscaping, inspections, etc. We came home late from work on the 2nd day and the whole job was finished. Pablo even came by at 7pm to make sure that we were satisfied, and Jeff called us as well to follow-up.
Overall this was the best experience I have ever had with a plumbing company and one of the best I have ever had working with contractors in general. We will definitely use Richco again should we ever need more plumbing work done!

"I had a very satisfactory experience with Ventura County Rooter. Within about 10 minutres they had successfully cleared the plugged water line, and then based on their inspection of the house and when it was built and its general condition, provided additional feedback about other plumbing topics that were beneficial to me. I had them come back the next weekend to perform a general maintenance check of the entire house plumbing system, which is now warrantied for two years. It was very good service."

"Work was completed before given time frame. Service was great! The crew came on time every day and cleaned after they left. The communication with Tom, our project manager was punctual and very helpful. We were kept upto date daily, Tom would come and monitor the project on a daily basis. He listened to our wishes and concerns and was very Kind and respectful. We are very happy with the out come. They were very detail oriented so everything looks amazing. We defiantly got more value for what we spend. Construction at your home is never easy and there were days that we had to face a lot of challenges, but they were on top of things and always took care of any issue that came along. I found my to go to contractor. Recommend them highly"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

A few different types of land surveys can help determine certain features and boundaries of your property. These include:

  • Boundary surveys describe the actual borders of a property. These are generally required when trying to get construction permits issued. 

  • Location surveys provide much of the same information as a boundary survey but also include in-depth information about any improvements made to your property. 

  • Mortgage location surveys are usually required by lenders and title companies before financing or offering an insurance policy. 

  • Site-planning surveys are done before applying for building permits and can be issued before any major home improvements. 

  • Topographic surveys provide a formal map of land elevations. It can also describe the location and size of natural features and any land improvements.

A land survey can take anywhere from a few hours to a month or more, depending on the size of the property, the type of survey, the property’s accessibility and topography, and the availability of historical property records. A simple boundary survey to determine a fence line can be completed in a day while surveying 50 acres of undeveloped woodlands may take weeks or longer.

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

Soil testers and licensed excavators are often the professionals you hire if you need a perc test. In some cases, structural engineers will also be able to conduct the test for you. In many municipalities, you’ll need your professional on-site to dig and fill the holes with water, as well as a representative from your local building department or health department. That representative is the individual who will determine whether your test passes or fails.

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.
