"Paul came over to inspect existing conditions and provide two options on replacement equipment. I chose to go with the Navien NCB-240E unit to replace both water heater and boiler since both were at or near the end of service life. Installation was scheduled for about 2 weeks later, and Paul's crew show up on time, and proceeded to make quick work of the demo, in a clean and safe manner. The new Navien unit hangs on a wall, and after spending the rest of the day repiping and rewiring, I was pleasantly surprised to see all the free space where my old units used to reside, and the extremely neat and compact installation now condensed in a small corner of my basement. Very please with the efficiency, cleanliness and professionalism of Paul's crew, and would definitely hire them again."

"I hired LJ construction to do snow removal on a large lot for our church. They are professional and work hard to get the job done right. They cleared our lot in a timely fashion and no one matched their price. What times I called they were there right away. I am extremely happy with the service they provide and have no hesitation recommending them. I will continue to use LJ construction moving forward."

"We use Steve's Lawn and Landscaping for our weekly yard maintenane and also for snow removal. Their service is EXCELLENT, FAIR PRICED, RELIABLE, and PROFESSIONAL. Their crew is always here as scheduled for our lawn maintenance in the spring, summer, and fall. And this year we were battered with alot of snow and their crew has beeb great with their timely response to our house (on a route) and even come late into the night (after snow stops) if necessary. They plow our driveway which has a steep upward slope and they also clear ALL of our walkways, decks, and entry areas with shovels and ice melt. Their crew is fast and efficient. Once or twice out of more than 10 times, I believe I had to call them back to re-do or complete an area (due to new crew not knowing our property) and they came right back out quickly and completed. I RECOMMEND THIS SERVICE PROVIDER!"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

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

Soil testers and licensed excavators are often the professionals you hire if you need a perc test. In some cases, structural engineers will also be able to conduct the test for you. In many municipalities, you’ll need your professional on-site to dig and fill the holes with water, as well as a representative from your local building department or health department. That representative is the individual who will determine whether your test passes or fails.

This is fairly rare, but sometimes the local government or a group like a historical society will label a tree as a landmark, or historical item. These designations almost always come with a small, on-site plaque for identification, but you should also be able to look up protected trees in your area on a city website or similar list. If the tree in question is a landmark, call your local government and ask how to proceed before making any plans.

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.

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.
