We specialize in any residential or commercial property land clearing project, whether your needs are planned or of an urgent nature.
There are many reasons why someone would want to clear land. Perhaps you want to clear trees and brush to make way for new construction, or maybe you have new landscape plans to start from scratch. Or maybe you want to keep overgrown lots from becoming a hazard.
Sometimes, you just have a patch of land that you want to begin using. Other times, when you’re in the beginning stages of a construction project, you need to clear land for the foundation of the buildings being erected. For farmers, land clearing helps prepare the land for crops, clearing trees, brush, rocks and stumps, while smoothing out large holes.
For homeowners, land clearing can make use of previously-unusable property whether due to thick brush or a heavily forested area.
Time Consuming, Difficult Process
Tree removal and brush clearing is a difficult and time consuming process that requires operating heavy machinery. Never attempt to clear the land yourself unless you’re prepared for the high costs and large investment of time. Due to the intensive nature of land clearing, certain types of land like wetlands are protected, which means you can’t clear them without obtaining a land-clearing permit or environmental impact test.
Land disturbance regulations are in place to protect the environment from excessive or harmful clearing. This process can impact the environment around it, too. When constructing a new building, your contractor will take care of this, filing the necessary paperwork to ensure the project is being done in compliance with land-clearing regulations.
But if you’re attempting to clear land on your property without construction, you’ll have to do all that yourself, and that includes filing permits correctly and on time. When you hire a land clearing professional, they can take care of all the government land clearing regulations.
What’s Involved in Land Clearing?
Land clearing is not for just anybody. It involves many dangerous and intense tasks, such as clearing brush, cutting down large trees, hauling them away, digging up rocks, filling in large holes with dirt, smoothing hills, removing shrubs, and burning and grinding stumps.
In order to accomplish all of these tasks, you will need:
- Chainsaw with multiple chains
- Stump grinder
- Bulldozer
- Brush-clearing machine
- Hatchet
- Backhoe
- Miscellaneous tools
- A lot of free time
Don’t have those things? When you hire a land clearing company, professionals who are licensed to operate heavy machinery do it all for you. They are trained in this type of intensive work and can accomplish your project in a timely manner.
