"Derek was very timely with his response once I posted on Angi?s List. I had barrels left over from a previous home owner that were labeled hazardous and I had no idea had to dispose of them. Derek and I texted a few times during the day to clarify some information and based on that, he provided a quote which included labor, transportation and product removal. We set up a time for the next day (which I was not expecting) and when he showed up with his partner, they inspected the barrels and identified it as non-toxic and basically non-harmless. Because it was easier to dispose of than originally thought, Derek lowered the price, and he accepted Venmo on the spot. He loaded and took the barrels away. The entire transaction took less than 10 minutes. I was extremely pleased with Derek?s company and would use them again, should the need arise. Thank you, Derek!"

Family owned business with over 8 years of experience handling Drain Pipe Installation - Exterior- Excavating - Remodeling-

"Initially it started off very well. We wanted a large pond put in that was not an eye sore and would serve our livestock. I wish there was a little more guidance and recommendations as we don't know the ins and outs of pond building. Initial test holes were dug which confirmed the project was possible and would hold water. There was no communication with the well installation team to ensure appropriate water flow into the pond. Once that was figured out the pond only holds about 1/3 of water with a well running 24/7. Reached back out to Alec see if we could troubleshoot the issue and get it fixed. Informed Alec that we were more than happy to pay more but just wanted a finished product. We planned a date and now haven't heard from him in over 1 month. Multiple texts and phone calls with no response. The communication is the most frustrating part about this whole project. Would not use this contractor again even though the big expensive hole in the ground we have is "pretty"."

COST IS DETERMINED BY THE JOB. TRAVEL CHARGES APPLY. NO SERVICE CHARGES. NO EXTRA CHARGE FOR AFTER HOURS SERVICE. LICENSE# PC 89100149. Also Central Indianas Best Water Line And Sewer Lkine installers ,, APPROVED BY INDIANA AMERICAN WATER CO./RESOURCES EMERGENCY SERVICE PROVIDER

"Called at 8:15 am and never received a call back until 13:26. For a company that advertises they are available 24 hours a day seems a bit slow to respond in my opinion. I have called back twice since then only to get voicemail and no answer or response. No a good way to run a business in my opinion. So the next day I get a call from them and explain my frustration in being able to reach anyone and the guy says well “they stay really busy with their commercial side of the business and generate over 4 million dollars a year.” Who cares? When I as a residential customer has a problem and I am looking to hire a company to fix my problem, I don’t care how much commercial business they have or don’t have! I told him I already got it fixed by another company and then he began questioning me what company I used, how much they charged, what was the issue, how deep did they dig, and what kind of material did they use to fix it which in my opinion is NONE of their business! If they treat residential customers this way because they make 4 million a year with commercial businesses, then why do they even advertise residential services? Pathetic way of doing business in my opinion! I would not spend a dime with this company!"

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.
