"They came and dug a new leach line that had been crushed from previous work done on the land. They were very professional and worked very hard to complete the job. It was not an easy task due to an abundance amount of very large rocks where we needed the new leach line. But they worked hard and made it happen. Very pleased with their work and effort from Wappapello, MO."

"5 star service! I cannot say enough about how awesome J &D Forestry Services LLC was to work with on our home project! Jeremy reached out to me right away, came the very next day and did the job at the price he quoted. Both Jeremy and Matt were professional and hard working. They did the job efficiently and left the site flawless. If you need trees removed, bushes removed or clearing out—I would contact J&D!"

"Ben and his team were top-notch. They went above and beyond the scope of the project, removing heavy brush and clearing a road to grade with the correct slope for water runoff. I will hire them again."

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.

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.

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.

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.

Property lines, building locations, and potential encroachments are mapped.
