"JMC did a top-notch job removing a large white pine that was dying, trimming another tree and clearing brush and briars from the side of my house. Their work ethic is impressive, and communication was great all done at very reasonable price."

"The Outdoor Advantage did a great job clearing these two large, overgrown areas. They reseeded the areas with grass seed and the new grass is starting to show, which is a good sign. Dave and Shizuka were very pleasant and nice to work with and responsive to my concern about picking a start date when I would be in town. They brought a backhoe to thoroughly clear the areas so that the plants don't grow back, which I appreciate. The two areas look completely transformed now and I no longer worry about the invasive brush taking over the lawn. It was an expensive project, but worth it, I feel, as long as these plants don't come back. I have another monster forsythia patch in the front yard and will call the Outdoor Advantage to deal with that in the future."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

You can’t build on undeveloped land without preparing it for construction, which involves running utilities to the site or accounting for private utilities like wells and septic systems and grading and compacting the soil for safe construction. Once you prepare the land, you can build on it as long as the project abides by local zoning regulations.

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.

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

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.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
