"Don't expect to have everything perfectly done. He does a great job in preparing you to do your end of the job which is straightening up organizing the area so you'll have to do a little cleanup which I did not mind doing. So I would say he did a fine job Nick is a fine guy and he is reasonable with the pricing I am very pleased. The only reason why I gave four stars is to make you realize that everything is not going to be just perfect perfect after the job is done. I guess if you went to you can pay more and have the cleanup done to your satisfaction. You have to ask him how much extra that would cost. Make sure you have a contract with what is expected and the time involved how many days it will take. And after you have the contract satisfaction as to what is expected what is nice is that you pay him after the job is done which I really like that too. This was a four-day project of clearing out Autumn olives and honeysuckles out of a 5 acre field, and he put in a 50 x 100 ft pond and he did remove some tree removal on the fence line cleaning out the 600 ft . fence line . Now it's my job to clean up the leftover trash of autumn olives and honeysuckle off the ground. Now it's my job too smooth out and plant the seed on the dam. Now it's my job to clean up cut up the trees that were removed off of the fence line. The only thing I would do different is I would not have any trees moved off to the fence line just the brush. That would be less clean up for me. Contract first pay later I love it. And you know when you do straighten up afterwards you kind of put your own few touches in to make it the way you really want it to be."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.

You will find a collection of licensed land surveyors in your area. Your real estate agent or construction manager may also be able to recommend a trusted professional. When speaking with prospective pros in your area, ask the land surveyor if they are licensed in the state, have liability insurance, and can quote you a fee before starting.

If a buyer pays for a survey, the surveyor they hired will only provide results to them. It’s up to the buyer whether they share the survey results with the seller or not, even if they ultimately walk away from the deal. It’s considered good faith to share the results with the seller, though, especially if you back out of the deal, as the seller can then provide that survey to future interested parties.

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.

Yes, new home construction will always require building permits, no matter where you live. In most cases, you’ll need a general construction permit, along with plumbing and electrical permits for the utility lines in your home. Depending on where you live, you’ll likely find that you also need permits for things like connection to a sewage system or installing exterior components, like decks, driveways, patios, and curb cutouts. Leave navigating the permits required for new home construction to a professional to ensure your home is built legally and safely.
