Professional Land & Lot Clearing Services
Land and lot clearing covers a wide range of work. Some jobs are about preparing raw land for a new build. Others are about reclaiming a property that’s gotten overgrown over time, or hauling away debris left behind after tree work or a storm. Whatever the scope, the goal is the same: a clean, cleared property delivered on schedule and without surprises.

Common Questions About Land & Lot Clearing
What's included in a lot clearing job?
It depends on the property and the goal. A full residential lot clearing typically includes felling and removing trees, grinding stumps, clearing brush and undergrowth, and hauling away debris. We’ll walk through exactly what’s included (and what isn’t) during the estimate so there are no surprises.
Can you clear just part of a property?
Yes. Not every clearing job involves the entire lot. If you want to open up a specific area, clear a fence line, or remove overgrowth from one section of your yard, we can scope the job accordingly.
Do you haul everything away?
Yes. Debris removal is part of most clearing jobs. If you have a preference about what to keep — firewood, or raw chips for example — just let us know and we’ll work around that.
Can clearing be combined with stump grinding or tree removal?
Absolutely. Many clearing projects include multiple services. We’ll include everything in a single estimate so you know the full scope and cost upfront.
How long does a lot clearing job take?
It depends on the size of the property and the density of what needs to be removed. Most residential lot clearing jobs are completed in a couple days. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the estimate visit.
Do I need to be home during the work?
Not necessarily. As long as we have access to the property and have discussed the scope of work, our crew can get started without you on-site. We’ll keep you updated throughout the job.
