"Jake from Home Ready Services arrived on time and was prepared to get me a price when the first Home Advisor contractor responded to my calls. His phone was damaged over the weekend. I decided to hire the first contractor. I was impressed with Jake from Home Ready Services and will keep his number for future jobs."

"Chris Huber was the construction manager for finishing our full basement and for major remodeling in the rest of our house. He worked with us for about 4 months throughout all stages of the process, from planning to completion. He was extremely professional and innovative in his management of our project. We are extremely satisfied with the work down on our house (and it was a major project!). Chris listened to our ideas, contacted and worked with all the trades working on our house, and made sure that everything was completed to our liking. He would meet with us several times during this process to go over the work and to make sure that everything was going well. He responded to our requests immediately and did not hesitate to complete some of the tasks himself if needed. We give him our highest recommendation possible. He will ensure that quality work is done on your construction project."

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A land survey provides precise property boundaries, reveals legal encroachments, and identifies rights-of-way, minimizing disputes. Understanding the exact dimensions and features of the property aids in informed decision-making and safeguards the buyer's investment.

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.

A land survey includes the layout of a single property, including precise measurements and to-scale drawings of boundary lines, land improvements, and sometimes other features, like topography and drainage information. A plat map includes the layouts and boundary lines of several adjacent plots and basic structure measurements. Surveys are normally more valuable for homeowners and buyers, and plat maps are for governmental use.
