"I had an old refrigerator, microwave and some other things to be removed from my backyard. Robert was the original guy I I contacted. We talked pricing and then arranged a Time for pickup. Vinny was the worker that came out on time I may add he introduced himself and got straight to work it took him about not even 15 minutes to get all the stuff on the trailer. We talked for a bit and he informed me that they were a construction company that also did repairs and to keep them in mind if I ever needed anything which I will I've added them to my contact list. I think Robert and Vinny are phenomenal guys. They were both professional and friendly at the same time. I gave them five stars but that really not enough to describe how they made me feel like a special and valued customer. So this is my personal rating; 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Satisfaction! πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€— Friendliness! πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸΏ Getting the job done! "

Family owned and operated since 1975. John DiMeglio founded the business on the premise that service and integrity is a vital component, especially when operating in an industry such as waste. He began modestly with only a few pieces of equipment. Immediately, his business grew on the thrust of hard work. John may no longer be with us, but he handed his work ethic and successful business model to his sons; Paul and Mark.

"Grossly unprofessional and unethical. Do not even think about using this company for septic service. Caught them red handed on an overcharge and instead of admitting their "mistake" they doubled down and claimed it was all our fault. Owner was extremely rude and obnoxious and told me to contact his attorney. So when I asked for his attorney's number, he just continued to yell and then hung up the phone."

Building site preparation and clearings FAQs

A professional team can clear an acre of land in as little as two to twelve hours, depending on your land's condition. You'll need to consider factors like vegetation density, terrain features, and obstacles such as trees, stumps, rocks, or existing structures can increase the time required. If your land is heavily wooded or has uneven terrain, expect the process to take longer and require more effort.

If you're looking to clear land for a pasture, expect to pay between $400 and $600 per acre for forestry mulching or $500 to $5,600 per acre for conventional land clearing. When choosing a method, consider:

  • Forestry Mulching: Leaves organic material in the soil, promoting new ground cover growth.

  • Conventional Clearing: You might lose valuable topsoil during this process.

A land-clearing project typically involves several key steps to prepare your property for construction or landscaping. First, assess your land and obtain any necessary permits from your local building department. Then, professionals use specialized equipment to remove trees, stumps, brush, and vegetation. After clearing, they haul away debris and may perform grading to level the land, ensuring it's ready for your intended use.

Preparing land to build a house typically costs between $1,000 and $4,000, depending on your land's size and condition. This includes clearing space for the foundation, which may involve removing trees, stumps, brush, and leveling or grading the site. Don't forget to budget for additional costs like permits, fees, and installing utility connections such as gas lines, water lines, and sewer mains.
