"I would probably give them four stars overall but since this is a review for a specific job of installing a gas stove I'm just giving two stars. They did the job but this is the second time now where they refused to do the job unless they were also able to replace the gas cock which is the valve behind the stove which supplies it with gas. It's totally unnecessary to do this but it allows them to double their price. So they charged me a total of $720 just for that. I would expect $300 or less for a simple quick job like this. I will not call them for this type of job again."

At ERC Environmental we make dealing with your old oil tank easy - our tank removal, replacement and soil clean-up services come at a single flat rate. No surprise fees or hidden charges; we make the process stress-free from beginning to end. Our services include everything from digging out your old tank to locating your new one, even ensuring your outdoor space is returned to its former glory. Ancient, leaking oil tanks pose a problem for homeowners, often when they come to sell. You might be concerned about the cost of oil tank removal and replacement because many contractors won't give you the final fee until the project is complete. That's where ERC Environmental is different. We quote you up front for the job, so you know exactly how much you'll have to shell out. It won't cost a single cent more. Contrary to popular belief it takes a matter of hours to remove and replace an oil tank – not days or weeks – and you won't be without heat or water during the process. ERC Environmental is a state certified, licensed, reputable and professional oil tank removal and cleanup company. Talk to us about your tank today.

"I had a good experience with the oil tank removal. However, they weren’t clear about charges. I agreed to hire them because in shopping for estimates they were the middle man. However, look at the estimate carefully. If any permits need to be pulled they put “permit”-TBD and charge $150 to obtain the permit. So when I received there estimate I thought that was the complete estimate and there would be no other charges. This was not true. I paid half up front and the other half was due when the job was complete. When the job was complete I had an addition charge of $400 for obtaining the permit and the permit itself. When I explained my situation and asked that they give some type of credit with the $150 they threatened to sue me and put a lien on my house. Do I think it would go that far “NO”. Attorneys are very expensive. However, I will not be referring them to anyone because of the sneaky manner in which they charge and also the threatening manner in which they ended the job. It’s not worth the headache though. If $400 is going to make such a difference I will pay it. Stay away charged are not clear. When they found out how much the permit would cost I believe they should have informed me as well as informed me that it would cost $150 to obtain the permit."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Secaucus, NJ

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.
