Q: How do you tell if a tree is a historic landmark?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: What is involved in a topographic survey?

• <div><p>Detailed mapping of elevation changes and natural features on the property.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for perc test results?

• <div><p>Professionals who complete perc tests can usually do them in a single day. Including excavating to expose the test site, filling the hole with water, and monitoring it while it drains, you can expect the test to take between four and eight hours total. It&rsquo;s possible that you&rsquo;ll get the results the same day, but some companies may take a few days to get official results.</p></div>

Q: How do you build a road on a slope?

• <div><p>Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn&rsquo;t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.</p></div>

Q: What do land surveys typically include?

• <div><p>Property lines, building locations, and potential encroachments are mapped.</p></div>
