"I hired Ace to clean up the last two autumn's worth of leaves from my yard. The crew of three worked for four hours and cleared the worst of the build-up. They came with all the equipment needed for the job worked diligently for the entire time, and left my yard a lot clearer.

"Steve Norfolk (owner) returned my call quickly, came out to inspect my basement within 24 hours and gave me an estimate that was significantly less then another "national" provider.  He got me on his schedule promptly and his crew came out on time, performed the work, cleaned up after themselves and I have not had a water problem since that time.

"The service provider was prompt,courteous and personable. Thoroughly explained what would be done to correct the leaky faucet. Was neat and clean in the work area and took care to ensure there were no gaps between the newly installed faucet and siding by applying additional chaulking. Entered the residence once to assess the scope of the repair and wore booties, without being prompted to do so, in order to protect my floors. I would use this company in the future and had such a positive experience with the assigned service technician, I would request him by name (Trai).

"I met with Andrew a few months before the work was to begin to discuss options.  In August 2014 he installed a long french drain that emptied into the woods and down the ravine on my property behind the house.  As sometimes happens with these things, the system did not really get a good test until today.   We had a storm cell over our neighborhood that dumped a ton of water in my yard in a very short period of time.  Andrew's drain sucked it up without a problem and moved the water as advertised.  I should have done this years ago!

"Backyard Ponds is magic. I have a small backyard pond,stream and waterfall that have been
leaking for years. Various workmen had poured concrete into it, slathered mortar
between stones and sprayed special waterfall foam all over the sides of it. My
pond, stream and waterfall continued to leak. Hilary of Backyard Ponds looked at it for a while, moved one
stone and fixed the leak. How did you do that! I yelled. Well after you work on
enough of these things you get an eye for what the problem could be. Then she
vacuumed all the mud that had been clogging the pum , reattached the waterline
and pump that I could never get to stay together, restacked the rocks along the
edge of the stream so they actually sat on top of each other instead of sliding
down at all angles, and added a few strategically placed rocks to hide the pump
and waterline and cover the rubber sides of the stream. She added a regulator to
the water line so I could make the water run fast and slow. And more. I have had
a pond and stream for fifteen years, and many people have worked on it, from
expensive professioanl landscapers to guys I would swear the contractor picked
up off the street corner. The difference in using someone who specializes in
ponds is stunning. Backyard ponds is
magic.

"Given that this company has an A rating, I was appalled to discover that John was not upfront about his subcontracting and permitting practices.  We questioned a very large line item on the contract for "permits" and were told that in addition to the actual county fees, they needed to cover other "expenses" associated with the permits.  Huh?  In response we were told we could pull permits "in our name" and would not be responsible for Suncrest's fee.   We agreed, though now I know I wasn't exactly clear what he meant by "in our name".  When I first applied for the permits using Suncrest as the contractor, I was told by the county they are not licensed to do plumbing or electrical work.  I thought that was strange since my husband and I both remember John saying they do not use subcontractors.  John got very nervous and defensive when I asked him about this.  He told me they do contract out this type of work, though interestingly he could not initially remember the names of his subcontractors and was adamant that he did not want me to use their names on the permit.  In the interest of keeping things going, I ultimately got the permits online using my name as general contractor for a fraction of the cost Suncrest quoted and it took all of 30 minutes.   The down side is that I gave up any protection against shoddy work by doing this.  
I was home for a good part of the time the work was being done on our bathroom.  I know for a fact that there was never a licensed plumber or electrician in my home.  The guy doing the demo, tile and everything else did all the wiring and plumbing and there was never any discussion about it.  These were not overly complicated tasks in our case, but licenses are required for this work for a reason!    I suspect even if I did pay the fee for Suncrest to pull the permits, all of the work still would have been done by Suncrest's employee, with the extra fee going towards a kickback to the plumber and electrician who allow Suncrest to pull permits in their names.
Overall we were satisfied with the work they did.  Responsiveness to the initial contacts was very slow.  Work was started 2 months after we were told they would be available.
We had talked with a few other companies before Suncrest, but we were not comfortable with the rigidity of the offers and limited materials choices.  Suncrest's initial quote was very basic (and missing some key upgrades I thought I had mentioned).  However, John was willing to revise and add things until we were comfortable with the plan.  We chose all our own materials, which was good in our case, but also a lot of work.  I did not get nearly enough guidance from the contractor as to the amount of tile to order.  As a result, my tile order was significantly low, and by the time the work started 2-3 months after the tile was delivered, I had a very hard time getting enough matching tile to complete the job and was forced to use some unattractive pieces of tile I would have rather returned.  As I was buying the tile directly, this was left entirely to me to figure out.  It seems like at least at the start of the job (if not much earlier), someone from Suncrest could have looked things over to make sure the materials were adequate.

"Rate the service A cross these 5 areas: Price: Reasonable. Quality: The job is done professionally. It includes getting property plat from the county office, discovering and recovering the property corner marks, flagging the property lines and answering questions. The job is done quite accurately. It was very interesting that he was able to pinpoint the hole of the lost corner nail on asphalt. Responsiveness: very promptly and, per request, always calls or texts before visit. Punctuality: Very much on mark. Professionalism: Very specialized in this line of work. Polite. Uses state of art equipment."

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.

A land survey defines and records the physical aspects of a property, including its boundaries, dimensions, easements, features, and sometimes topographical information. In contrast, a land appraisal determines the property's monetary value. While an appraiser will often consult a land survey to understand the property's physical specifications, the survey itself does not determine the land's value.

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.

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.
