"We acquired a vacant lot next door to us, and had it cleared. However, land contours caused a couple of living-room sized ponds to appear after heavy rains. I anticipated having a drainage ditch dug and stone filled to drain the water away. Ground Tech owner Kevin Cummin looked the situation over, and suggested resloping the land would drain away the water and leave the land more intact and usable. It would also be less expensive. He did an excellent job of re-contouring the land, added top soil, and raked in grass seed. He held off the top soil for a rainy day (1 day), to make sure the drainage was correct, and one more day so the mud exposed by re-contouring could dry a bit. While on the job, I asked him for a quote on two other improvement jobs (lining a shoreline with gabian stones, and removing stump grindings). The quotes were very reasonable, and I am extremely satisfied with the results and appearance of his work. He told me when he would be on site, and was here at those times. The work was done as soon as feasible (weather controls a lot of outdoor work). The price quoted was agreed to, and there was no attempt haggle upward as has happened with some others. He planned the progress of the job very well. And the man is a master at using the small backhoe and Bobcat machines needed for my work. Honest work for an honest price! I am well pleased."

"It went perfect! The owner, Griffin , was extremely nice and understanding and willing to work with me for exactly what I needed done at my farm! Since a flood took out our walk way and driveway at my farm, it needed to all be redone. Griffin excavated all the old damage walkway and driveway and also put a drainage system under the new driveway and walkway. Which I originally didn’t think of but to prevent this from happening again, Griffins idea worked so well, since the farm is in a valley and we get flooding quite often! An estimated was always provided and communication was always great. I would highly recommend and will be using again!"

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

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.

You should always calculate real estate development costs on a case-by-case basis, so there’s no specific formula to estimate your total. You should speak with a local construction manager to see what you’ll need to do in terms of clearing and leveling the land, connecting utilities, and pulling permits for construction. A professional will be able to get you an accurate estimate for land development.

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

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

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.
