What you’re probably dealing with

  • Your river-bottom lot is grown up too thick to build on
  • Pasture or hay ground has lost acreage to brush and cedar over the years
  • You are ready to build but the site has to be cleared and graded first
  • Stumps and root mats need to come out, not just trees cut off at the ground
  • Some trees are too big for a brush mower or a rented skid steer

How we solve it

  • Two CAT compact track loaders for heavy clearing and material handling
  • Two CAT mini excavators, the 305-07CR and 308-08CR, to pull stumps and take down big trees
  • CAT 275XE mulcher to grind brush, so we can mulch and excavate on the same job
  • We handle brush, larger trees, stumps, root mats, and rough grade in one project
  • Comfortable on slopes and difficult ground other contractors won’t touch
  • Project-based pricing with a clear written quote after a free on-site walk-through

Land clearing across Gainesboro and Jackson County

Gainesboro is the Jackson County seat, set in the Cumberland River country with bottoms and bluffs running around Cordell Hull Lake. The land here is some of the prettiest in the Upper Cumberland and some of the most overgrown. River bottoms grow up thick and fast, pasture loses ground to cedar every season, and a lot of buildable lots are buried under brush and timber. We clear it down to clean, usable ground with our CAT track loaders and mini excavators.

Whether you are clearing a river-bottom lot to build, reclaiming pasture, or opening up bluff ground near Cordell Hull, we clear the brush, drop and remove the larger trees, pull the stumps and root mats, and rough grade so the land is ready for what comes next. We work the full Jackson County area, including Gainesboro and the corridors along SR-56 and SR-85.

Common Questions

Land clearing in Gainesboro, answered

Do you do land clearing in Gainesboro, TN?

Yes. We work the full Gainesboro area and all of Jackson County, from the Cumberland River bottoms to the bluff and pasture ground around Cordell Hull Lake.

How do you price land clearing in Jackson County?

Land clearing is priced by the project, not by the hour. The number depends on the acreage, how big the trees are, the terrain, and how you want the debris handled. We walk the property first, then give you a clear written quote before any work starts.

Can you clear thick river-bottom ground and reclaim overgrown pasture?

Yes. River bottoms grow up thick and fast, and pasture loses ground to cedar every season. Our CAT track loaders and mini excavators take out the brush and big trees and pull the stumps so the ground is clean and usable again.

Can you clear a lot and get it ready to build?

Yes. We carry a job from clearing through site prep and septic. Once the brush, trees, and stumps are gone, we rough grade the pad so your builder can get right to work.
