"Xtreme Excavation and Grading was fantastic, my sewer pipe was backing up so i ran a camera and come to find out it was packed full with roots and waste, so I googled up some companies and got a couple quotes but the I called and spoke with Brandon (the owner of Xtreme) and him and his guys didn’t waste any time!! He told me the price (which was extremely reasonable nearly half as much as the other 2 places i called) came out the next day and fixed my issue, Very friendly and knowledgeable and they did great work!! I will definitely be keeping them in mind for future needs"

"We had some sewage back up into our basement sink on a Saturday morning. I called Clog Busters based on their Angie’s List reviews. They didn’t have a crew available on the weekend, but were available on the following Monday. The crew did a great job explaining the problem and finding a solution for me. Great customer service and they earned their money working in some frigid and snowy weather. I hope to never have another sewer backup, but if I do, I will call Clog Busters."

"Jason did an excellent job with leveling and prepping the ground for our patio project. He is a great communicator and even went above and beyond in providing advice and instructions for how to finish the rest of the project. We are very happy with Longwood's work and will definitely use them again if we have other projects in the future!"

"We live in a heavily wooded area and have used Preservation before.  Emerald Ash Borer killed 15 very tall ash trees; my husband took down many himself, but we had 5 that were potentially dangerous to either our home or our neighbors.  Tom called Preservation and Jeff called back and came out promptly to review the situation.  Three of the trees were definitely precarious and 2 of them could not be reached by the truck.
On Wednesday, the crew came out promptly at 9:00 a.m. and went to work.  They removed the trees closest to our home using the truck.  They dropped the tops and cleaned up the debris to a site that my Husband designated.  Through the day they proceeded to remove the 3 that were least dangerous, then they worked on the 2 that were the most problematic.
The tree to the north was leaning and caught up in another tree.  The crew climbed the tree and removed the top and then the larger limbs.  The crew reviewed their processes and determined the best way to proceed. They tied the tree to another tree, then he got down and was able to move the truck close to a limb that was caught in another tree.  When he cut the limb, it released the main portion of the tree and the whole tree came down.  Because he had tied it to another, they were able to control the direction of the fall.
From there they went to the north side with an even larger tree.  They followed the same procedure as above and were able to take that tree down safely as well.
Since then, the wind from Hurricane Sandy has been impacting Michigan; wind gusts today of 35 mph.  The possibility of those trees coming down on their own was high.
So, once again, Preservation was called, responded quickly, came out and safely removed the trees.  They cleaned up behind them, were very professional and charged a very fair price.  They are our go to people for anything related to tree removal, and because of our experience with them we have recommended them to our neighbors who have also used them.  You will not go wrong using this great firm!

Land Clearing Services questions, 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.

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.

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.

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.

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
