"Rocky Ridge did a fantastic job at clearing some land for us. He got back to us very promptly, met us at the site, and started to work all within about a week or so of us originally contacting him. He took a totally undeveloped area that was basically a forest on a hill and made a nice flat area for us to build on. His attention to detail was amazing. He used the stones he found in the area to build a retaining wall to help create the flat space and even left us an adorable stone bench. I would highly recommend Rocky Ridge for any landscaping, clearing, or excavating work you need done."

"Brent is a hands on business man and offers a professional excavating service that is unmatched in the area. Not only did Brent tackle a difficult project , he met the challenge by suggesting small changes in consultation with engineer and inspector to maximize grade and space . Fox excavation was a pleasure to work with . The project was completed within the stated time frame and updates were communicated daily during the installation . I would not hesitate to recommend Fox Excavating for your septic system installation or repair. Steven K. Nieminen Chester, Massachusetts"

"Called Stephen 6/13/11 to ask for him to give me an estimate of project. He called back later that day. Asked when I would like him to come out. He said he was flexible and I scheduled a time for the next day --at my convenience! The next day he shows up right on time and is professional and amiable. He was knowledgeable and asked great questions. He raised some good concerns about how our land may be protected under the wetlands protection act. Because there may be an issue of wetlands, I need to contact the town before proceeding with the project. He did say he could definitely do the project if it we were allowed to.On his way out, he took away some old wood boards and pipes lying around the back yard at no cost. He is amazing! What a great guy. I wish we had substantial things to remove, so we could work more with such a great, honest, professional guy. I wish all the people we work with on our house were like him! If you have any demolition, construction, lawn/garden and other waste that needs disposing of, do not hesitate to contact Stephen!"

"I hired Sparkys Services to take down three trees. Fred and his crew were awesome. The way they took down the trees and removed and cleaned up the debris showed they have a lot of experience. The quote I was given was very reasonable. Will highly recommend them"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
