"Hired Chastain Land Development to do some work related to invasive bamboo-root-removal. Additionally had stumps removed, as well as some light grading work completed. They?re very upfront and transparent. They were very responsive and quick to complete all required work. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for any of the services they can provide. Overall, I greatly appreciated the honesty, professionalism, and capabilities of the company."

"Overall, I'm lukewarm on the service. Waters poured the foundation and driveway for my home when I built it a few years ago. I wanted to extend a patio and so when I saw them in the list on HomeAdvisor I gave them a call. They were in the middle of the pack in terms of pricing, so I felt good about the call. I asked for two quotes - one for pouring the slab and another for staining it since I had considered staining it myself but really didn't want to if the price was right. I decided to split the job into two - stain later and first just do the pour. I spoke with West and explained the type of surface texture and joints I wanted. I received the quote with the words "pour and finish all labor and materials." You might expect that finishing would include cutting the joints and removing the form boards. When I texted them to ask when they were coming back to cut the joints I was told it would cost more - a lot more. I texted West and asked how we got into the miscommunication but he never responded. They never came back to remove the form boards. The work they did do, they did well. The folks that came out were friendly and easy to work with. Unfortunately, I cannot provide any company who ignores me and leaves me to do the cleanup with 5 stars. 3 1/2 is the best I can do. The least I would expect is for West to offer an explanation like "I'm sorry, we didn't properly explain that finishing didn't include cutting expansion joints." How hard is that? Waters won't be doing the stain. They started off strong but finished weak. Thus, a weak score in the review."

Ortiz is a visionary landscaper who designs , adds to yard over time. We’re fortunate to have him do “cleanups”, he always has great ideas for additional plantings!"

"The service was not good. He sent me text that he would be here 10:30 am and he got here noon. He had no equipment. The property was not properly slope according to the three individual professionals I've spoken to. He was not committed to his work. He got very defensive when I tried to talk to him and he keeps calling me his brother, but I'm not his brother I'm a client. The punctuality was a 1 star."

"Very happy with the site prep and clearing. The crew showed up when they said they would and got right to work. They cleared the lot efficiently and left the site clean and ready for the next phase. Communication was clear from start to finish"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

A land survey defines and records the physical aspects of a property, including its boundaries, dimensions, easements, features, and sometimes topographical information. In contrast, a land appraisal determines the property's monetary value. While an appraiser will often consult a land survey to understand the property's physical specifications, the survey itself does not determine the land's value.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

Professional well contractors may use electromagnetic mapping to look for places with a high likelihood of water. Water access can vary significantly, even on the same property, so it can be difficult to know where to drill if you don’t have specialized tools to look for water.

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. 

This is fairly rare, but sometimes the local government or a group like a historical society will label a tree as a landmark, or historical item. These designations almost always come with a small, on-site plaque for identification, but you should also be able to look up protected trees in your area on a city website or similar list. If the tree in question is a landmark, call your local government and ask how to proceed before making any plans.
