Who does a perc test?

• <div><p>Soil testers and licensed excavators are often the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-does-perc-tests.htm">professionals you hire if you need a perc test</a>. 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. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a land survey and a boundary survey?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How long does a land survey take?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: What should I do before hiring an excavation company?

• <div><p>Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.</p><p>To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn&rsquo;t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.</p><p>Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.</p></div>

Q: Can you build on undeveloped land?

• <div><p>You can&rsquo;t build on undeveloped land without preparing it for construction, which involves running utilities to the site or accounting for private utilities like wells and septic systems and grading and compacting the soil for safe construction. Once you prepare the land, you can build on it as long as the project abides by local zoning regulations.</p></div>
