"It took several emails and three trips for all the work we had verbally agreed to, to get done. I should not have o be so persistent, however work was complete and results look great. I recommend written contracts for anyone considering this service company."

"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 Craftman did an amazing job with our basement renovation. We had new windows installed, a fireplace retiled, new doors installed, painting done & electrical ventilation units installed. They assisted with permits and inspections. They were detail-oriented and always communicated with us regarding progress and the next steps in the project. They were always friendly, courteous and reliable. We will definitely use them for future projects."

"Eddy and his team trimmed seven pine trees for us, and the result was
outstanding. Excellent service! They were prompt, friendly, and very professional.
Very fair price, great work, cleaned up everything
(couldn't tell they had even been here, except for the outcome). Eddy
really knows his trees, and we recommend Double Tree with our
highest recommendation!"

Land Clearing Services FAQs, answered by experts

Pros will assess your soil type, property geography, and rain patterns for optimal slope.

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.

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.

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.

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.
