"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."

"I'm hoping to find the right words to even articulate how exceptional the work, the service, the timeliness, and the conscientiousness of Jared and his company on his performance with my house projects. What started as one project with my deck mushroomed into three additional projects because of how happy we were with the cost, quality, and quickness of completion with the first. His honesty above reproach. You don't just get a 'price' for your project. You get a partner who makes sure you fully understand all that's involved whether thru words or pictures. He gives a clear and accurate needs assessment of what's required. He then follows thru during the work by providing texts or pictures of the work's progress until it's finished. This is a man and a company I highly recommend with absolutely no reservation. His integrity and professionalism warrant my loyalty. I look forward working with Jared without hesitation on all future projects."

Super Service Award Winner

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!"

"Ron removed 3 very large trees along my property line that were leaning over my neighbors fence. My neighbor keeps an immaculate yard with numerous flower beds and an outbuilding and working from her yard to remove the trees would have caused a lot of damage to her property. Ron was able to climb each tree, tie a large rope and pull the trees onto my property with a skid steer as he cut them. I questioned if it could be done. It was pretty amazing to watch. He did an amazing job of placing the trees where they needed to go. Very pleased with the work performed and the cost."

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

A land survey provides precise property boundaries, reveals legal encroachments, and identifies rights-of-way, minimizing disputes. Understanding the exact dimensions and features of the property aids in informed decision-making and safeguards the buyer's investment.

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.

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.

ALTA/ACSM surveys are the most comprehensive type of land survey and, as such, tend to be the most expensive. These surveys have standardized guidelines and reports and are used in many kinds of real estate transactions to ensure consistent and accurate information is available for properties.
