"contacted T&K Builders after discovering mold in my exterior wall, and their response was immediate and professional. The team quickly demolished the affected area and installed the necessary structural supports to safely hold the roof. Everyone on site worked efficiently, communicated clearly, and maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the process. They kept the site clean, protected materials from the elements, and were extremely organized—especially important since we received over four inches of snow the following day. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. Their attention to detail, workmanship, and respect for the property truly set them apart. I would absolutely recommend T&K Builders for any future projects and would not hesitate to call them again."

"Excellent, as always. They have done SO much work for us over the years - 13 years since I have been here at our condo. We have two catch basins that need to be rodded and cleaned as preventive maintenance regularly. They have also done some work for us when we've had tree roots grow into our sewer lines. They were far less expensive than other quotes and did the work just as well. They are terrific. Angel, who always services our condo building is the best!"

"Professional and thorough inspection of old dirt crawlspace and foundation walls, with photos taken, and quote given for installation of their crawlspace encapsulation process.  
The encapsulation process sounds like a great solution to any crawlspace issues that may be present.  However, it is a costly solution, although may have this done in the future. 
The inspection process went well, friendly, professional and all questions thoroughly answered.  The only down-side:  Minor issue, but wish men had placed a drop-cloth outside the crawlspace entrance so as not to track out any crawlspace soil."

"Tom, the serviceman was on time and extremely polite. He thoroughly explained what needed to be done and the cost for the service. While we had booties ready for his arrival to protect our carpeting, he came prepared with his own. The site was clean after the work was completed. We had a few questions about future projects that we may consider for which he provided clear and concise professional answers. I would definitely hire this company for additional work."

"Dominic came out and did the quote to bury to drain pipes from the gutters. He proposed solutions and locations for the lines. He understand my concern with the garden and visability. It took me some time to pull the trigger on the project. He honored the price, always called back promptly. They do have a heavy work load and it took a while to get on the schedule, they didn't do a reminder call for Julie to me so that was a challenge (they could do that to improve efficiency). The team arrived on time, finished the project early. They cut up the grass and were careful of the wiring for landscape lighting. The yard was put back together like it never happened, I'm not sure the grass will survive but were almost a week and its still trying, but not their fault. The team was professional cleaned up the project. I didn't watch to see how many holes they put in the pipe and I should of done that, as they closed it up before I went back outside. I would recommend telling them you wish to view that. I also special ordered white filters so they matched the gutter/downspout vs black. I may have to trim the gutter as they left a large amount to ensure the pieces don't slip but the leaves seem to have gotten stuck with the lighter rain. All in all very pleased."

Land Clearing Services FAQs, 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.

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.

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.

When planning for land survey costs, you should consider the following elements as major contributors to the overall cost:

  • Size of your property in terms of acres or square feet

  • Complexity of the terrain in terms of hills, elevation changes, rocks, water, and other features

  • Type of survey you need (boundary survey, topographic survey, or a combination of survey types)

  • Distance traveled for the professional surveyor

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.
