"I couldn’t be happier with the tree removal service we received from San's Tree Service. From start to finish, the team was professional, punctual, and incredibly efficient. They handled everything safely and with great care, including cleanup—our yard looked better afterward than it did before! Their communication was clear, pricing was fair, and the entire process was stress-free. Highly recommend this company to anyone needing tree removal or cleanup. Outstanding work!"

"Ken and his team did a great job. They built a privacy fence and replaced damaged exterior siding and trim boards. He kept me informed from start to finish. Ken was on-site and easily accessible. His team was respectful and cleaned up before leaving every day. It was a stress free experience for a job well done."

"I was so lucky K & B had a hole in their scheduling for January and they came the next day. I had three walls of brick to be removed, they protected my wood floors and had their sheet rock guy and electrician come after the demo and redesign it. I would hire them again in a minute."

"2 thumbs up from me. I contracted with Jared and his team to remodel and update a wraparound deck. The work included beefing up the sub-structure, creating a completely new staircase, adding new railings and re-decking with composite boards - all done about 20 feet in the air perched out over a mountain. All of this work was done at my cabin in Mars Hill while I was in Florida. I can say that he does quality work at a fair price and on time... what more can you ask. I will definitely work with him again."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Anytime we had more than 3 inches of heavy rain, it washed the gravel away in multiple places and left deep ruts in our approx. 90 feet long relatively steep driveway. Zack Raymond (owner of ZR Landscaping & Grading) and his crew graded and resurfaced the entire drive on August 22-23. I decided to wait with a review until after another heavy downpour. As a result of hurricane Michael, we measured a total of 4.1/4" of precipitation and the driveway is still in perfect condition. Bottom line: "This company clearly did a great job, with which I am totally satisfied!""

"Kevin is very knowledgeable about what he does! Our driveway is a long and curved gravel road that had been impacted from rain and time. Kevin brought it back to a great shape and it has stayed smooth since. Really great guy and great work!"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

You will find a collection of licensed land surveyors in your area. Your real estate agent or construction manager may also be able to recommend a trusted professional. When speaking with prospective pros in your area, ask the land surveyor if they are licensed in the state, have liability insurance, and can quote you a fee before starting.

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 100 gallons of water per person per day in the U.S. With a private water well, you can save hundreds each year.

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.

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.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.

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.
