"Jesse and Tillerman Gardens are top notch! We have worked with them for years. With our first home they widened our driveway, added a retaining wall, leveled our backyard and made a beautiful stone wall around our garden. Our house sold in 2 days and all the feedback was about our “beautiful curb appeal”. I was most sad to leave these features of our home, I literally did not want to move and leave my stone wall! It was a deal with my husband to call Jesse immediately and get a new stone wall around my garden. In our new home Tillerman gardens has created a new curved stone pathway, MY stone wall around the garden, leveled the backyard, created a patio around our shed, added a split rail fence, not to mention the landscaping! Jesse helped us choose the best perennial plants to give our new home that lovely curb appeal. The neighbors literally stop us daily to tell us how much they love it. My recommendation for Jesse and Tillerman Garden could not be any higher! It has not only been a pleasure working with him, but we feel like he is apart of our family and the reason we love our new home SO very much!"

"I hired Ace to clean up the last two autumn's worth of leaves from my yard. The crew of three worked for four hours and cleared the worst of the build-up. They came with all the equipment needed for the job worked diligently for the entire time, and left my yard a lot clearer.

"They did an excellent job! I was worried about mold in the basement and they found some, destroyed it completely then water proofed! I've already told my neighbors about this company and I'd hire them again! The crew was very professional and took time to answer any questions I had."

"Steve Norfolk and his crew dug down to the footing and applied the waterproof material a section at a time.  The original plan was to dig the entire area first and then apply the waterproof material all at the same time.  However daily torrential rains turned the area into a sea of mud, so he decided to do it a section at a time to minimize problems associated with the rain.  He had to break up a concrete slab (porch) for 1/2 the front, and approximately 25 feet of driveway next to the house.  Progress was slow due to the rain and mud, but Steve steadfastly pursued the completion of the job despite the setbacks.  Although justifiably discouraged by the rain and lack of progress, he exhibited a positive "can do" attitude and kept at it.  The finished product was professionally done.  Backfill and all concrete were properly completed, and grass seed applied.  Steve is a conscientious professional who knows his business and can be relied upon to do the work he says he will accomplish.  I would use him again in a heartbeat.

"Summary: Great service. Felt really confident in the knowledge and skills of the plumber. Work was quick and well done. Yet...paid out the nose, what seems in retrospect like a crazy high price that we're still trying to understand. Details; We moved into a house with a weird basement toilet-- an above-ground macerator (grinder) in a closet next to a Saniflo toilet, instead of a pipe to the sewer line. The grinder stopped working while renters were staying here, and we needed it fixed ASAP. Non-functioning toilet = non-functioning rental! Jiffy was super responsive on a Saturday morning. They're available 24/7 we're told! We got someone on the phone right away, which was not the case with other places we called. They had a guy out to the house in less than 3 hours to do an estimate. The plumber, Scott, had 8+ years of experience and suggested several options. My partner suggested a less-labor-intensive (and less expensive) option -- running pipe above ground to the sewer line instead of jackhammering into the concrete slab to lay pipe -- and Scott was happy to roll with that and make sure it would work well for us. He also assured us he could get it done same-day, which was great. No pressure. He quoted us $2k, flat fee. He left and we researched our options. In the meantime, the macerator spontaneously started working and cleared the clog, which meant it would not require anyone to pump out the toilet bowl or the pipe, which we expected would save him considerable labor and mess. We called the main number and asked about any change to the price and were politely rebuffed. A $2K quote was a $2k quote. We couldn't get anyone else to come give us an estimate in a timely manner and Jiffy has great reviews here, so we called Jiffy back and said we'd like to work with them. Scott came within an hour or two, after finishing a plumbing job at Lowe's. (We felt re-assured that even Lowe's trusts Jiffy with their plumbing!). Scott came in, removed the macerator, cut the metal sewer pipe, and connected the toilet to the sewer line with some PVC pipe and joints. He tested it with us, explained his work, and disposed of the used materials for us. All appreciated. In total, he was in and out in less than 4 hours. It was a great experience work-wise, and we don't mind at all to pay more for a very skilled, high-quality job that avoids sewage in our basement!! Still....we can't for the life of us figure out how that adds up to $2K, and felt a bit like we were easy marks as first-time home owners who clearly needed the service day-of. We didn't realize when he said he could "get it done today" that he meant it would only take 3-4 hours. That's $500/hr. Even if we doubled it to 8 hours of labor if we round up generously on the commute and time to buy materials, that's $250/hour. We're told $175/hr is standard, or up to $210 on the very high end. We also know from other DIY projects that the materials (PVC and joints) were inexpensive. I don't know if we paid for special expertise, or "emergency rates" or what. Again, we don't mind at all paying for quality, but we're stumped. Live and learn, but next time we'll be sure to ask how many hours it will probably take, and start our negotiations about price from there. Note: If anyone has information about pricing methods that would make sense out of this for us, we'd be open to that too, and I'd change the review to Yes, Would Hire Again. We'd want to hire again, for all the reasons above, but would hesitate because I don't feel great about a pricing strategy of "see what the customer will be willing to pay unwittingly, and go with that." :P p.s. Given the price, the 11% Angie's List membership discount was much appreciated!"

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.

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.

A land survey can take anywhere from a few hours to a month or more, depending on the size of the property, the type of survey, the property’s accessibility and topography, and the availability of historical property records. A simple boundary survey to determine a fence line can be completed in a day while surveying 50 acres of undeveloped woodlands may take weeks or longer.

If you or your mortgage lender think your land survey needs to be more accurate, double-check the survey report and get at least a second opinion from the original surveyor and an inspector, if possible. Although it’s unlikely, even reputable surveying companies can make mistakes. An inaccurate survey can cause problems down the road in the case of any property line disputes, so it’s best to resolve any inaccuracies as quickly as possible.

Land survey reports have a boatload of information relevant to several scenarios. Here are the types of information contained with a survey, though it depends on your chosen type of land survey. Exact boundaries and dimensions of a given property General topography, including both natural and artificial landmarks Location of utility fixtures, like water mains Confirmation of any easements or encroachments on a piece of property Assessment of land elevation to buy flood insurance Updated information to add to a pre-existing property map
