"From start to finish, working with Premium Drainage and Erosion Solutions was the absolute best experience I've had with any home project! I met with Adrian, the owner, and he listened to all of my concerns, answered all questions, was so friendly and honest in doing so, and came up with a plan that made the most sense to me compared to other quotes I received. Communication about every aspect of the job - finalizing a plan, scheduling start dates, etc. - was very responsive and clear. As for the work that was done, the Premium D&E crew was absolutely professional, clean and detail-oriented! They went above and beyond what I imagined or thought was possible. They didn't just add the features that were discussed, they totally transformed the space. These guys worked so hard, and you can tell they really love and take pride in what they do. When the project was finished I didn't have enough words to thank them and share my appreciation for all of their hard work!"

"I originally requested 4 quotes for roofing contractors. I received 3 quotes for estimates with Sino-American being one of them. That very same day, in fact almost immediately, I received a call from Mason, the company owner, which both surprised and relieved me who expressed interest in bidding on the job. We agreed to schedule his company to conduct an estimate. Sino-American was one of three bids I received who landed exactly in the middle and within my price range and although there was one lower estimate there was something special about the interaction over the phone I had with Mason that made me know that his company was the right choice. Mason arrived in person and ahead of schedule for our meeting. Mason was incredibly knowledgeable about the work to be done on this 25 year old or so roof that was basically falling apart and thorough about every single detail of the project. He offered many options for me to choose, from materials to colors, and everything in between including his project management style. I was sold on our business arrangement. Sitting at my kitchen table Mason began discussing each elements and phase of the project line-by-line in detail I didn’t expect and at this point could really care less about because in just a few moments listening to Mason it no longer felt like a business arrangement. I was at home in my kitchen sitting across the table from a trusted and deeply feeling friend. And so it was! Mason’s amazing and kind and diligent team arrived always ahead of schedule (they have that down to a science!) and did everything that was intended in the time it was told to me. Every time I looked up, Mason was there personally supervising the project and emailing me with pictures sometimes twice a day on the status of the project. I know for certain I was not only his only client, but it never once felt that way to me. His communication is outstanding and if ever there was something that came up, and in my case always it was about something regarding what lied beneath the shingles, Mason would call me to discuss the issue, offer options and give my o.k. before proceeding. There was never any situation that might have arisen that was not already discussed and priced by Mason. There is no doubt that he knows his business. The roof replacement was completed on time and beautifully done better than I expected. Yet the work was done so well it out shined the house itself and not because it was a new roof but because you could see the passion Mason has in his work and the faith in his work product he instills in his team. It absolutely reflected in the precision and the detail. Needless to say, I asked Mason to join me back to my kitchen table where I presented ideas about immediately remodeling the outside of the house and changing the exterior. Mason was honest (and kind and gentle) enough to quiet my outlandish ideas about changing the exterior and instead offered cost effective options through changing a part of the front of my house from 2 windows and a useless door (that I could never understand why it was there in the first place when I purchased the house 7 years ago) to three beautiful windows, new siding, and painting that has turned my house into a traffic stopper! My neighbors have offered that it looks like a newly built house and it really does! I cannot over exaggerate how grateful I am to have met Mason and his team at Sino-American and can recommend his company without hesitation! This coming spring I will invite Mason back to my kitchen table to discuss the new projects we (yes, I said “we” - I can never use another contractor – ever!) are undertaking to transform the back of my house including a very large new window, more siding, paint and the transformation of my deck, which by the way I have had the estimate in hand since the first project was completed. Talk about thorough! Thank you Mason and Team! You guys are more than amazing and I can’t wait for our reunion!"

"We are so grateful for your service, prompt and reliable. The entire crew who came out to work on our sewer line repair was so kind and extremely knowledgeable. When I had a follow up question, they came right back out to check the work, and went above and beyond to make sure my concerns were handled. I highly recommend your company. From our very first emergency call to the completion of the job, to the grass that is already growing to cover the big dig! Thank you for making a very difficult situation as calm and easy as possible. Jenn & Dave Peter, Columbia MD."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.
