"Superior in All Respects - responsive, punctual, safe, fast, professional, and reasonably priced. We needed to prep our sloping home site for construction of a house by having a mix of live and dead trees dropped in addition to clearing a large area of many saplings that had sprouted from when the site was initially graded many years ago. The job was made more difficult by the presence of a large travel trailer and a shed, both of which needed to be avoided when dropping and processing the trees. The Hamby crews spent two days expertly dropping the trees, cutting them up, hauling them off, chipping the smaller-diameter trunks, limbs, and bundles of brush we had accumulated, cleaning up, and leaving us a nice pile of mulch for gardening. These guys were absolutely wonderful. They showed up on time; maintained good contact; worked fast, hard, and safely; could not have been more attentive to minimizing damage to near-by shrubs and trees, and were at all times courteous and pleasant to deal with. We will definitely call them for additional work when it is needed. Outstanding company!!"

"It's not often that someone truly impresses me, but this young man did exactly that. From the very beginning, his professionalism, communication, and business sense stood out. He carries himself with a level of maturity well beyond his years. His crew did an outstanding job trimming my trees and left my property spotless when they were finished. The cleanup was just as impressive as the work itself, and he kept me informed throughout the entire process. I've been in sales for over 10 years and have worked alongside many seasoned professionals, yet I've met very few who demonstrate the level of professionalism, follow-through, and customer service that he does. He has an incredibly bright future ahead of him. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality work, excellent communication, and someone who truly takes pride in what they do."

"Although I did not hire this company because my job and budget were too small, when talking to them I found them to be very knowledgeable and helpful with suggestions that would help me reduce costs with a kitchen design. If I had a bigger budget, I would have gone with this company."

"Excellent work from start to finish! I hired Stonecrest Construction to clear trees, level and prepare a pad for a future garage, and install a new driveway off of my existing driveway. They removed the grass, properly graded everything, and created a solid, clean driveway and garage pad. I’m extremely impressed with how everything turned out. The work was done professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. They completely transformed the area and left everything looking clean and well-finished. I would absolutely recommend Stonecrest Construction to anyone needing excavation, grading, land clearing, or driveway work. Great company and great work!"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, 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.

Depending on the type of land survey, the report will mark the boundaries of your property, the topographical changes of the landscape, as well as major natural and added structures to the plot. A more detailed survey, like an as-built survey, will note the measurements of the structures and landscape following major construction. A topographic survey will also help your contractor determine the cost of land development projects.

Land survey reports have a boatload of information relevant to several scenarios. Here are the types of information contained with a survey, though it depends on your chosen type of land survey. Exact boundaries and dimensions of a given property General topography, including both natural and artificial landmarks Location of utility fixtures, like water mains Confirmation of any easements or encroachments on a piece of property Assessment of land elevation to buy flood insurance Updated information to add to a pre-existing property map

A land survey defines and records the physical aspects of a property, including its boundaries, dimensions, easements, features, and sometimes topographical information. In contrast, a land appraisal determines the property's monetary value. While an appraiser will often consult a land survey to understand the property's physical specifications, the survey itself does not determine the land's value.

Land surveys don’t technically expire. They do serve as a point of reference and a snapshot of your property, though, so as soon as you make changes to your property (and even if your neighbor makes certain changes to theirs), your existing land survey becomes inaccurate, and a new one must be done. Even if you don’t make any changes to your property, many states only guarantee the accuracy of a land survey for five to ten years.
