Land Preparation for Building

  • Remove trees, brush, or debris and mark property boundaries. Hire a surveyor to confirm lot lines and layout.

  • Schedule a percolation test for septic and assess soil stability. Plan for power, water, and access—especially if building off-grid.

  • Level the build site and create a driveway or road if needed. Proper grading helps with drainage and sets the foundation for your structure.
