Morrow Contracting DBA: Advanced Service Plus Plumbing Co. Better . Cleaner . Faster . 24 Hour Service . Residential . Commercial . Licensed . Bonded . Insured . Factory Trained

"Contacted Advanced to repair a leaking gas line at my father in laws house. We noticed the leak while we were in town for Thanksgiving. I contacted Advanced through Angie’s list but they never returned my call. I called them back when we got back home from Thanksgiving and they set up a time to go out to the house the next day. The next day they contacted me and said they needed to bump the call to the next day. They went out, assessed the problem, quoted and repaired the pipe, They also extended the Angie’s List discount which was a pleasant surprise. Other than them not getting back with me initially and also having to delay the scheduled repair I was satisfied with them and would recommend them."

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.
