"Sean Farrell Excavation was hired to do over our driveway. Sean clearly reviewed all the materials, steps involved, and hours that the crew would be at our property. The work was meticulous and on time. Reviewing the steps beforehand left us with no surprises and we were able to plan our day to day around it. We were thrilled with the finished results. Sean took the time to listen, relay it to his crew and deliver a gorgeous driveway. We even got a phone call when work was completed to make sure we were happy, something that rarely happens from a company owner these days. I would highly recommend him and his crew for any similar work."

"We contracted StoneWall to install a patio area, but also solve for some unique drainage issues on our property. The estimate was clear, Jerry took the time to explain everything in detail and work with us on any changes, and the work was completed in the timeframe he'd outlined. His crew was detail-oriented, treated the yard and property with care, and really took time to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommended!"

"Cameron showed up right on time, measured and marked off the site and went to work. Excavated the site, spread and leveled 5 yards of 3/4? stone. The Reeds Ferry foreman complimented Cameron?s work. I have more work to do and Cam and his excavator can do the heavy lifting. Highly recommend Cameron."

Everything went very well beginning with communication about scheduling, promptness in doing the job and professionalism.  While the steps were done most competently from beginning to end, the walkway and patio work was not quite up to "excellent" but only due to lack of attention to the finishing touches, such as cleaning the polymer sand off the pavers in several areas.  Also, a couple of end pavers became loose and so far Scot has not responded to my request to fix it.  I am sure he will eventually. Aside from these relatively minor flaws, I definitely recommend Affordable Masonry and will use their services again if and when the opportunity presents itself.

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

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.

You should always calculate real estate development costs on a case-by-case basis, so there’s no specific formula to estimate your total. You should speak with a local construction manager to see what you’ll need to do in terms of clearing and leveling the land, connecting utilities, and pulling permits for construction. A professional will be able to get you an accurate estimate for land development.

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.

A boundary survey measures the boundary lines of the property, only the length of each property line and their locations. A land survey includes a more in-depth measurement of the property, including the heights and depths of the terrain measured by a topographic survey. A boundary survey is typically the most cost-effective method for marking and measuring property lines.

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.
