"ALL SERVICE CALLS exceeded our expectations & provided excellent & prompt work at our home. From the timely, prompt & fair estimate to setting an appointment within 2 days, we were pleased with their labor. The team arrived on Thursday early & completed the work of clearing our trees & overgrowth within 4 hours. They also hauled away the debris. I plan to hire them again as for a few other projects as trees/landscaping is just one aspect of what they do. SIMPLY AWESOME. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL SERVICE CALLS LLC."

"Our family has been working on a clean out, demo, and refinishing of our Grandma's Basement. We have used this service to haul away garbage and debris on two separate occasions. The Junk Relief office was responsive, estimates could be done through text by sending photos, the price was extremely reasonable (priced per truck load with labor included *compared to* $200+ per small bagster bag). Each time drivers were attentive, prompt, and efficient. 10/10 recommend for the Chicagoland Area."

"Excellent service from start to finish.  Greg came out to look at the crawl and there was actually also a problem in the attic.  I scheduled the crawlspace work and it came out beautifully.  I will be doing the attic work later in the year.  So professional and courteous and GREAT communication about all the house needs without overselling the services.

"Woods is excellent and exemplify professionalism. From the initial estimate by their representative to the crew sent out to do the actual work, at each stage every detail and costs were clearly explained and specified. They are not cheap, but there are no hidden costs or last-minute "add-on's" - you know what you are going to pay and what you are getting from the start. And, their products are top-notch! Their work crew was really great: they traveled 110 miles to my house and spent two entire days on the job site, spending the night at a local hotel. The installation of the sump pumps, crawlspace liner, dehumidifier, and outside drain lines were all very well done. They removed all work debris and left the job site clean. I needed to have the dehumidifier checked a few months later because it would not cycle on-off as it should. They sent Garth out to check on the problem; he was on-time (even a little early), and quickly noted that the unit did need to be replaced; he even identified an additional issue with some water leakage at the entrance to the crawlspace, which I had not noted. Two weeks later, as scheduled, two crew members were at the house to replace the dehumidifier, which involved re-digging the entrance to the crawlspace, and re-caulked the entrance to stop the water leakage. Their work was, once again, very professional."

"tl;dr I highly recommend talking to LAND before you hire any demo company, and would recommend them to any friend. I was afraid my single family home knockdown demo wouldn't be big enough to interest demo companies in Chicago, but since my first quote from LAND, I never felt like they were blowing me off. Actually, compared to a few people who had similar projects in Chicago with other companies, I expected zero transparency on pricing, zero updates on progress, and zero urgency. None of that was true with Dan. I actually found LAND extremely transparent and communicative. Every question I had along the way was answered same day, often within 10 minutes. Although there are always unexpected delays when dealing with a city like Chicago and its permit processes, I never felt like the project was abandoned. And as a resident in the neighboring building, I was very concerned of the noise and mess and possible damage but despite the super tight space, my neighbors and I were both happy with the quality of the job. I had a few special requests too, which Dan was able to accommodate where other companies who I talked to said it was too difficult (eg. can we save half the fence, can we leave the garage and demo from front, can we level out the soil, etc). Lastly, the price was super competitive too, right at the lower end of the range I was seeing from all the quotes I got. Thanks Dan and LAND."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

Land surveying can help give clear guidance on your property boundaries for numerous situations. And in some cases, having your land surveyed is a requirement. Some common reasons to have your land surveyed include:

  • Planning for construction projects, like building a fence

  • Locating utilities, such as plumbing fixtures

  • Settling property line disputes 

  • Creating subdivisions 

  • Meeting mortgage requirements

  • Selling your property

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.

Costs vary, but you can expect to spend between $1,000 and $4,000 to prepare land for a mobile home or before you build a house. You’ll need to clear enough land for the foundation, which may require leveling or grading, as well as removing trees, stumps, and plants. Don’t forget to plan for permits and fees and the installation of a gas line, water line, and sewer main.

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.

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.
