"Jonathan provides excellent communication prior to & during the project. He coordinates with other professionals as needed to complete his projects such as landscaping, as was needed in our case. A shout out to Tony Angeli & his crew for their landscaping layout & skills. In our case, Jonathan not only had to tear out a significant amount of old shrubbery & dispose of it, but did minor regrading, provided a French drain with tie-ins to our downspouts, & provided a finished landscape project with a very impressive finished project. Another shout out to his dad, John, who worked side by side with Jonathan on our project. This crew is very impressive, hard-working, and determined to satisfy every need of their customer. I cannot recommend them more highly. Thank you to all involved in our project!"

"Hired Charlie even though he was roughly 20% more than the other bids I got. He came highly reviewed so after being burned by a previous contractor I did not want to take chances. It all started off good. His work is great and the end job was well done. The issue is he did not do the entire job that we originally agreed upon which included taking trash left over from a demo from the previous contractor. Also, he did 90% of my yard and grass seeded it but then at the end says the agreement did not include the other 10% which was also messed up and needed to be done. Who in their right mind would not want the other 10% done as well even if it cost a little more? I told him originally I wanted the entire yard done and trash gone When we originally talked I told him I wanted a contract, I asked him two more times before he even started working. Even at the end of the work I still do not have a contract. He finished 85% of what we agreed upon and then still expected his entire payment, now I seen why he did not make a contract. Then he got mad and threatened to call the zoning officer on me for the trash that he left on my back porch, and would not you know it the zoning officer shows up a few days later to give us a warning. So much trash that it broke the back porch so that now it needs to be repaired. He also cracked my concrete entry to my driveway with his dump truck which I will also have to get fixed. In conclusion, Charlie does good work but make sure you get a contract before he does any work because he will change the agreement on you and still expect full payment."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Lake Harmony, PA

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.
