What should I consider when I drill a well?

• <div><p>When considering the price of drilling a well, factor in how much you’ll save in water costs per year. The average family of four uses <b>100 gallons</b> of water per person per day in the U.S. With a private water well, you can save hundreds each year.</p><p>Wells are also environmentally friendly. You don’t need to worry about drinking water treated with chemicals. Talk to at least three well pump contractors in your area. They’ll be able to tell you more about your options, give you different quotes, and discuss the biggest concerns.</p></div>

Q: How do pros determine the right slope for my landscape?

• <div><p>Pros will assess your soil type, property geography, and rain patterns for optimal slope.</p></div>

Q: Who do I call before I dig in my yard?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re planning to dig on your property, you&rsquo;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&rsquo;t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues. </p></div>

Q: How much does land surveying cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-land-survey-cost.htm">Land surveying costs</a> about <b>$530</b> for the average homeowner. However, your total cost could range anywhere from <b>$200 to $1,000</b> or more. Factors like the size of your property play a significant role in what you pay, but other things like the survey type and the time of year can also impact the final cost. </p><p>For example, if you&rsquo;re looking for a simple boundary survey, you can expect to pay between <b>$100 and $600</b>. However, if you want a more in-depth survey that depicts the elevations of your hills and trees, you can expect to pay between $500 and $1,200 for a topographic survey. </p></div>

Q: What do the little lines on the tape measure mean?

• <div><p>The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.</p></div>
