What you’re probably dealing with

  • You’ve got land you can’t use because it’s overgrown or full of stumps
  • A builder needs a clean site before the foundation crew can roll
  • You’re losing usable acreage to brush and cedar each year
  • You need stumps removed, not just trees cut down
  • Other contractors have backed off because of the slope or scale

  • Two CAT mini excavators for stump removal and detail work
  • We handle brush, trees, stumps, root mats, and finish grade in one project

Common Questions

The uncomfortable questions, answered

How much does land clearing cost?

It varies based on density, terrain, and what needs to happen with the debris. Most residential clearing projects run as project-based quotes after a free on-site walk-through. We’ll give you a clear written number, not a vague range.

How long does a clearing job take?

Light clearing on flat ground can be a single day. Heavy clearing with stump removal and grading can run several days to a couple of weeks. We’ll give you a realistic timeline before you commit.

Do you remove stumps?

Yes. Stump removal is included in most clearing projects. We use our excavators to pull stumps and root mats so the ground is workable when we’re done.

What happens to the debris?

Depends on the site and your preference. We can mulch it in place, burn it where allowed, haul it off, or stack it for firewood. We’ll go over the options on the walk-through.

Can you clear steep terrain?

Usually, yes. Our equipment is rated for slopes that smaller skid steers can’t handle safely. We’ll tell you on the walk-through if anything is genuinely beyond what’s safe.
