Some Common Problems You May Have During Lot Clearing
Lot clearing services are necessary when a construction contractor prepares the land for new construction or when property owners want to get rid of the accumulated dead trees, shrubs, grass, and other debris. Doing such a job should be outsourced to a professional excavation or landscaping company. What problems can you experience during the execution of the project?
Utilities. Telephone, cable television lines, and gas and sewer pipes could be located underground. They are easy to spot as soon as you go a little deeper. If your contractor is not careful enough and penetrates any of those utilities, this could cause a major breakdown with costly repair consequences.
Large hazardous trees. If trees or bushes are in your way, they can be hard to cut down and remove. However, your contractor should utilize the equipment to handle big trees. They must be careful as this is a task that could result in casualties, as well as financial losses.
Water basins. Many regions have extensive underground water sources and basins that can be a problem when clearing the land. They can be difficult to spot unless the equipment drives over it. So, your contractor needs to look at the local maps and blueprints to be able to prevent catastrophes.
Underground hazardous materials. Many plots of land were once used as a dumping ground for household garbage, harmful substances, old car batteries, and a variety of other dangerous items. You must remove them to prevent any mishaps. You should also get rid of other unwanted things such as old foundations that may be found on the property as a part of the clearing work.
