"I was doing some landscaping for my yard and getting rid of a bunch of river rock. I was having a hard time finding anyone that was willing to come and take them for me. I found Max on Angie’s list, I was not expecting a call but about 5 min after I put what I was looking for g for on the site Max gave me a call. He came out the next day, and quickly removed the pile of rocks. He was even kind enough to remove some of the yard waste I had piled for the next trash pickup.

"The work was satisfactorily performed in a timely manner. The price was outrageous. I paid $378 to replace a toilet fill valve and flapper. My regular handyman was unavailable so I thought I would try Ranck Plumbing. I feel I was treated unfairly to be charged twice the cost many plumbers would bill. I would like future potential customers to be forewarned."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Quarryville, 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.
