I am the owner and do my own field work, CADD mapping as well as research. Any assistants of mine on the job have years of experience so all work is performed by highly qualified personnel. Since I bring my Laptop computer with me, a lot of times if a printer is available I can provide the customer their map before leaving the jobsite. When Invoices are sent through email, a link is provided to pay with a credit card, in addition I have a reader to accept a credit card on site.

"Mr. Cavenaugh is the most professional, courteous, tactful, punctual, and positive contractor that I have ever met. He has integrity, character, and is extremely honest. He went above and beyond what he was hired to do. If you want a contractor that is not out to swindle you, or play frivilous mind games, "PLEASE HIRE VERNIE!" I will recommend him to any and everyone who does not have time for these dumb scams. We are so grateful to God that we found Vernie on Angie's List. There are only a few good men left. Mr. Cavenaugh is one of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! His invoice, his maps and equipment - Surperb! I have one request for Vernie, DO NOT GO OUT OF BUSINESS!"

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

Permit requirements to clear land vary by municipality, so whether or not you need permits depends on where you live and what you’re removing from the land. Some building departments will require permits for any underground work or excavation, meaning grinding down tree stumps on your property would require permits. Others mandate individual permits for each tree you remove. You can contact your local building department or a land-clearing specialist near you to see if permits are necessary for your job.

To prepare for a land survey, you must thoroughly check your land surveyor’s qualifications, reviews, and fees to align with your expectations. When it is time for the survey to be conducted, ensure that you have all your documents organized and available, know and mark your property lines, and inform your neighbors that the survey is happening.

When planning for land survey costs, you should consider the following elements as major contributors to the overall cost:

  • Size of your property in terms of acres or square feet

  • Complexity of the terrain in terms of hills, elevation changes, rocks, water, and other features

  • Type of survey you need (boundary survey, topographic survey, or a combination of survey types)

  • Distance traveled for the professional surveyor

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’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’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

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.
