"After dealing with numerous tree removal services who failed to keep appointments, i finally contacted Spence’s who promptly responded, removed the tree in a professional manner. The prices were competitive and the employees were professional and competent. The tree was removed expeditiously and the grounds cleaned well. I highly recommend them."

"After the pandemic my entire backyard looked like a junkyard..and I had continued to amass more junk as I failed to deal with it. Finally, I had enough and called HVH to take care of it. They did an incredible, timely, cleanup job! Now I can finally have friends over for backyard BBQs again!"

"My experience with MJS Excavation was extremely positive from receiving the quote at the start of the project all the way through to completion of the project. I had Jason build a large retaining wall on my property and he took my vision and enhanced it even more than I could have imagined - the finished wall exceeded my expectations. Before the start of the project I was having some difficulty visualizing certain aspects of the wall and Jason came over not once, but twice, to discuss with me to ensure we were on the same page and that I understood what his plans were. Then once the project started, Jason was hard working and open with communication if anything came up. He came up with ideas on how to enhance the project and priced them out so I could make an educated decision. Jason is so nice and friendly and his work speaks for itself through his craftsmanship and skill. In fact, some of my neighbors were so impressed that he ended up doing work for some of them after he completed my project! When he finished everything up, he cleaned the space and resodded the lawn that was affected. The final price ended up almost exactly on target with the estimate quote he provided at the beginning – something that I have not had a positive experience with other contractors in the past. I really cannot recommend Jason enough – he is hardworking, honest, skilled, and a pleasure to work with. If you are considering him for a project – go for it, you will not be disappointed!"

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

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.

When considering the price of drilling a well, factor in how much you’ll save in water costs per year. The average family of four uses 100 gallons of water per person per day in the U.S. With a private water well, you can save hundreds each year.

Wells are also environmentally friendly. You don’t need to worry about drinking water treated with chemicals. Talk to at least three well pump contractors in your area. They’ll be able to tell you more about your options, give you different quotes, and discuss the biggest concerns.

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.

Yes, new home construction will always require building permits, no matter where you live. In most cases, you’ll need a general construction permit, along with plumbing and electrical permits for the utility lines in your home. Depending on where you live, you’ll likely find that you also need permits for things like connection to a sewage system or installing exterior components, like decks, driveways, patios, and curb cutouts. Leave navigating the permits required for new home construction to a professional to ensure your home is built legally and safely.

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.
