"I have found this company to be efficient, friendly and dependable. Russ is especially professional. This fact was clear to me in my very first experience with his work. I was expecting his crew to show up on a particular day. Due to poor weather, his schedule had changed.I called him to say that I was disappointed that my yard wouldn't be ready for company I was expecting. That very same day, Russ sent his crew to take care of my lawn. Every contact, since that time, has been pleasant. Needless to say, I am impressed with the quality of work and customer service I have received."

"I hired BTJ Demo last year during my kitchen remodel. In regards to that job the results were outstanding. They finished 2 days earlier than projected and most importantly addressed EVERY minor concern we mentioned prior to the job. This review is specifically for the 2 recent snow storms that rocked my area. The storm was so bad that snow removal companies were not able to clean my property within a reasonable timeframe or the astronomical cost. I reached out to BTJ for recommendations in a last ditch effort. This is the best part....they informed me that I could use them for snow removal AND the dude gave me 5 recommended snow removal companies! I valued that kind of integrity and used them. They did a FANTASTIC job cleaning up the snow! Throughout both snow storms they came through 3 times to plow, shovel and salt my driveway! I was not expecting that level of service. I highly recommend this company...they definitely went above and beyond."

"The Finest Craftsman crew is fantastic. Their work on our home was exceptional. They made my wife and I feel continually cared-for while providing us with clear information and communication about the jobs they did for us. This experience was nothing less than A+++. Jonathan and Jerson are remarkable people to work with - trustworthy, responsive, thorough and fair. They and their crew, including Carlos and Manuel, inspire confidence and hold themselves to a standard that is continually professional. Their workmanship is superb and they didn't leave a trace when they finished the job. We originally hired Finest Craftsman to do a full exterior paint job which included a lot of trim and window sill replacement. As a kind of after-thought we asked them to price what we thought was a small job on our porch - rebuilding some crumbling concrete and replacing missing bluestone. I was impressed by Jonathan and Jerson from our first appointment for them to survey the house and make their estimate. They both came to the estimate with a third guy in tow. This in itself struck me as unique- other contractors sent one guy and the one guy was there for 15-20 minutes tops. Jonathan and Jerson and their partner spent over an hour combing thoroughly over my entire house. This was also unique. I felt like I was getting their full attention. They asked me about things I wasn't even aware of - small places where there was rot or weakness. They were exceptionally thorough and caring about my home- as if it were their own. Jonathan and Jerson are both very personable - funny, warm and easy to get along with. Jonathan makes it clear in both his words and actions that while he wants to do the job 'right'. He has very high expectations and standards for his crew and his product. This was always true in our experience. In fact, after the first phase of the paint job- where a worker had come to pressure wash the house - Jonathan was very upset about the mess that the worker had left. While it wasn't messy in a way that my wife and I really noticed- we certainly could see that a lot of chipped paint and dirt had been left around the back patio, driveway and surrounding yard. Jonathan and Jerson came THEMSELVES the following day and cleaned the entire area around the house with the pressure washer. Jonathan apologized for the mess the worker left behind. It would have been fine with me, honestly, but the high standards around even this kind of thing made me feel very taken care of. When it was over, the paint job they completed was exceptional and the woodwork on the trim and sills they've done is a huge improvement to the sharp, clean lines of the house. Jonathan was in near-constant contact with me throughout this painting process. We developed a very comfortable texting conversation as well as phone calls almost daily. Plus- Jonathan or Jason (or frequently both) were at our home on the job the entire time. They were personally overseeing every step. Further, whenever ANYTHING required my input or they thought I should be made of aware of a set of choices they had regarding how to move forward... they immediately included me in the conversation. With regard to our porch rebuild - what we thought was going to be a simple repair turned out to be a much more involved project. We have a very old home - built in 1919 - and when the Finest Craftsman crew began to excavate our porch they found deterioration from salt and moisture plus a gap between the concrete pad and the 'top layer' of the porch. Jonathan and Jerson laid out for my wife and I in an extremely clear way the different options we had in order to deal with this. At no point did we feel pressured- only very informed and securely guided by their expertise. Jonathan and Jerson always made it clear what they thought the right way to go about a plan was... but there was never pressure around going in a more expensive direction. This made the entire project feel very organic and it made my wife and I feel that we were really making informed decisions about the repair and rebuild. As the job went along I felt that I could really trust these gentlemen not only to do the job sufficiently but that they were also looking for possibilities to improve and capitalize on the opportunity of home improvement. An instance of this was when we were considering replacing all the columns on our porch. My wife and I had no intention of doing this initially but Jerson suggested that the columns were not only out-of-date in terms of architectural style but were also rotting in places. He suggested we consider composite columns in a more up-to-date style. His point was also that these new columns would never rot or deteriorate. Jerson was absolutely right about this. I am so glad he suggested it and was able to sketch for us in clear detail what they would look like and how they would improve the front of our house. Since completion of these jobs my wife and I feel that we have a solid home improvement partner in Finest Craftsmen. We have already booked them to add a storm door to our main entrance and are looking to book them in the spring for some a possible siding/insulation job. I cannot say enough positive stuff about these guys and how good it was to work with them."

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.

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.

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.

To hire a land surveyor, you need to start by searching online for reputable professionals in your area. Here are a few steps to take when making a shortlist:

  • Browse land surveyor service website

  • Check credentials

  • Read customer reviews

  • Find their contact information

  • Call or email to inquire about more information

  • Ask how far they travel, if you’re some distance away

  • Find out how they charge for their services

  • Ask about schedule and turnaround times

  • Repeat these steps for one to two other services and compare pricing

If a buyer pays for a survey, the surveyor they hired will only provide results to them. It’s up to the buyer whether they share the survey results with the seller or not, even if they ultimately walk away from the deal. It’s considered good faith to share the results with the seller, though, especially if you back out of the deal, as the seller can then provide that survey to future interested parties.
