"Rick returned our calls promptly and gave us a fair quote for services. Baumann's does not overcharge or upsell. Once we settled on Baumann's Landscaping as our contractor, we called Rick and the crew were out the next morning promptly at 9am. We were expecting two days of work to clear the brush, but they completed the job in 4 hours. The crew went above and beyond, killing vines choking our trees, mulching all the deadfall, and pushing the brush line all the way back beyond the trees (we live on Maryland wetlands). Fast, prompt, great job. Would absolutely hire again. A++."

Customers say: Quick response

"Working with Alfaro was great. I had two trees blow over on Thursday night. I posted the job Friday morning at 8 a.m. and within 30 minutes I got a call to set up an appointment. They were on-site in a couple of hours for an estimate, started the work immediately and by the end of the day on Saturday my lawn was clear without any remnants of the trees. Customer service at its finest."

Customers say: Terrific value

"We contacted SL Landscaping through Angie’s List. From the outset, they were very responsive, getting back to us quickly. We needed some yard work to be done in short notice (next day) and they were able to accommodate, with a very competitive pricing. On the day of work, they showed up on time, with all the needed materials to do the job. They were detailed and communicative and we were very satisfied with the results. We definitely recommend their services and will be using them again in the future!"

"They are a hard working crew. They work quickly, safely, and clearly aren't afraid of hard work. Their equipment is first rate and well maintained. They cleaned up after their work and did everything possible to not damage the yard. I have already recommended then to a couple family members and some friends. They definitely have earned a contact in my phone."

Land Clearing Services questions, 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.

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.

There are a couple of ways you can determine the depth of your well. One method is to use a device called a well sounder. This tool has a long measuring tape containing a sensor to alert you once the end reaches the water. 

Or you can DIY it by using a long tape measure with a half-filled bottle of water attached to it. Lower the tape measure into your well. Once you feel tension on the tape, you’ll know the bottle has reached your static water level. This will give you an approximate idea of your well’s depth.

To hire a land surveyor, you need to start by searching online for reputable professionals in your area. Here are a few steps to take when making a shortlist:

  • Browse land surveyor service website

  • Check credentials

  • Read customer reviews

  • Find their contact information

  • Call or email to inquire about more information

  • Ask how far they travel, if you’re some distance away

  • Find out how they charge for their services

  • Ask about schedule and turnaround times

  • Repeat these steps for one to two other services and compare pricing

To prepare for a land survey, you must thoroughly check your land surveyor’s qualifications, reviews, and fees to align with your expectations. When it is time for the survey to be conducted, ensure that you have all your documents organized and available, know and mark your property lines, and inform your neighbors that the survey is happening.
