"Fantastic! There was great communication, very responsive, positive interactions with all involved from Air Temp Solutions. They did a wonderful job from beginning to end. From the first phone call to a minor question with the final invoice, I couldn't have asked for better service. I would highly recommend Air Temp Solutions to anyone."

"Jacob and his team were hired to clear a heavily wooded area for me totaling approx. a half acre in size. I had hired other companies prior to finding Wilhelm Site Services, but they never showed up. Jacob was on time every day and didn't leave until his goal for the day was met. His price was fair and he went above and beyond. I appreciated that he respected our property and didn't leave trash or debris on the job site. I will be hiring Wilhelm Site Services again."

"Everything was excellent. The team identified the hole in our pool liner. On the day of replacing the liner, identified a potentially severe issue with the structure of the pool. Provided a recommendation for a replacement pool. Proceeded to remove the old pool and excavate the land in preparation for construction of the new pool. Once the new pool arrived, they constructed the pool and constructed new outline landscaping around the pool. We are now the envy of our neighbors who have all watched and gazed in amazement at our new backyard oasis. For all of your pool needs, this is who you need to contact ASAP."

"My wife and I purchased a 5 acre parcel in Caroline County Maryland. A short time after our purchase of our property I spent multiple days and endless hours making phone calls to find an independent contractor to come in and fully clear my lot of all trees, debris and vegetation, where my wife and I could finally build our dream home. On or about the fourth day a gentleman who lived close by the property that I had purchased stopped in. I’m guessing in to welcome us to the community. He referred us to Superior Property Services LLC. During the conversation, when speaking with the owner and operator, I was absolutely taken away by the professionalism, respect, and friendliness not to mention theeducational and informational way detailing step-by-step, start to finish on how they would approach what I needed done to get my property prepared for the build. My wife and I are now happily living in our dream, only because of the excellency performed by Superior Property Services LLC."

"Marlen and his sons did a fantastic job removing a couple of dozen trees, roots and all and an old concrete structure. On another section of the property they took down a number of tall oak trees and did a good job cleaning up. We were more than happy with the results and would highly recommend him. We looked at several tree service companies and this was by far the best option for us."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.

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.

To hire a land surveyor, you need to start by searching online for reputable professionals in your area. Here are a few steps to take when making a shortlist:

  • Browse land surveyor service website

  • Check credentials

  • Read customer reviews

  • Find their contact information

  • Call or email to inquire about more information

  • Ask how far they travel, if you’re some distance away

  • Find out how they charge for their services

  • Ask about schedule and turnaround times

  • Repeat these steps for one to two other services and compare pricing

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.

If you or your mortgage lender think your land survey needs to be more accurate, double-check the survey report and get at least a second opinion from the original surveyor and an inspector, if possible. Although it’s unlikely, even reputable surveying companies can make mistakes. An inaccurate survey can cause problems down the road in the case of any property line disputes, so it’s best to resolve any inaccuracies as quickly as possible.
