SO, WHAT THE HECK IS LAND CLEARING?

Land clearing, also known as lot clearing or "grubbing", is the process of removing trees, tree stumps, roots, vegetation, boulders, and debris from a particular piece of land/property.

The tree removal and brush clearing is a labor-intensive and time consuming process that requires operating heavy machinery.
Because of this, there may be certain types of land or areas, such as the wetlands, that require you to obtain the proper land-clearing permits prior to clearing the land to ensure the environment is minimally impacted no more than it needs to be to complete the job at hand. These environmental regulations are in place to protect Mother Nature from and excessive, irresponsible, or harmful clearing.

You can be confident that we will take care of any necessary government permits for you so that your land is cleared in compliance with the law, avoiding you any headaches down the road. We stand by doing things the right and honest way. Give us a call today to take a look at your property and schedule a land clearing estimate today!

WHAT DOES THE ENTIRE PROCESS LOOK LIKE?

Once you have decided that you want a particular lot on your property cleared, you will need to determine if you need land clearing contractor or arborist to take care of the job for you.

Here is what that would look like:

Determine if permits are needed - This will depend on a variety of factors including soil erosion risks and location. A local planning company or land clearing contractor will be able to help.
Secure an Estimate - Having a budget set will help you find what your realistic options are available within it. While pricing is often based on per square foot, other factors including topography, time of year, structure demolition, and junk removal & hauling will need to be factored in.
Begin Clearing the Land - After finalizing an agreed upon estimate, land clearing can begin. This can involve demolishing existing structures, blocking off any trees or structures that are to remain, removing the remaining trees & brush, and leveling the land (filling any remaining holes with soil or mulch).

REASONS & BENEFITS OF LAND CLEARING

Virtually everyone from all walks of life have or can benefit from land clearing. Whether you are a farmer, a property developer, or have visions for your residential area, beautifully clearing your lot can do wonders for years to come.

While there are an endless amount of reasons why someone may want their land on their property cleared, here is an extensive list of reasons & benefits why you would hire a land clearing company:

Residential or Commercial Development
Typically, lot clearing services are needed prior to real estate development. Trees need removal, buildings need demolishing, land needs leveling. There is a lot of preparation that is needed prior to construction
Clearing New Trails & Pathways
Trail clearing requests are fairly common. From ATV trails, to horse trails, to hiking trails, to actual drivable pathways, we have you covered
Vegetation Disease Prevention
Unfortunately entire patches of vegetation can grow diseased. There may come a time where clearing the land may be a good choice for preventing unwanted spread
Returning the Land to Pasture
We can clear unwanted trees, brush, mulch, debris, and overgrowth. This helps prep the land & soil for agricultural and farming practices
Reduce Wildfire Hazards
When a plot has extensive overgrowth of brush & decayed branches, the risk of a dangerous wildfire increases. Land clearing removes unwanted dead plants, rotting stumps, dried brush and other flammable threats
Fence Rows & Utility Purposes
Some common improvements to properties involve marking your property lines with fencing, gates, or walls, as well as retrofitting it for power & water - both requiring the surrounding land to be properly cleared
Improving the Overall Aesthetic & Property Value
Both tree removal and land clearing services can dramatically improve the curb appeal & beauty of your property, which can easily increase your property's value

Whether you plan to clear your land for agricultural preparation, real estate development or other purposes, land clearing brings countless benefits when done responsibly.

WHAT'S INVOLVED IN LAND CLEARING?

To many people we help throughout Kingsport and the Tri-Cities area, land clearing seems like an easy DIY task in their mind. What many fail to consider is the many hazards and labor-intensive work that comes with it, such as brush clearing, large tree removal, excavating large boulders, filling large holes, leveling the land, demolition, and not to mention clean up & haul off.

Some of the possible equipment you may need for clearing a piece of property include:

High Quality Chainsaws
Used to trim and remove trees
Stump grinders
For grinding down stumps left after felling a tree
Bulldozers
For moving debris and earth around
Axes & Hatchets
For smaller shrub and tree trimming needs
Backhoes
For bulk transportation of brush and materials
Brush Hoggers
Rotary mowers than can trim down thick vegetation

If you do not have access to the equipment and tools to complete the job, you may have the option to rent some of the equipment listed. You will also need to know how to properly operate the equipment and will still need additional manpower for certain tasks.

If you have the necessary equipment and feel confident operating them, you will need to ensure that you have any permits necessary for clearing the particular piece of property.

Once you are compliant, you may begin the land clearing process. Be sure to mark off the areas you want to leave untouched prior to beginning major clearing. You will also need to ensure you have located a place to dump the cleared debris and material.

After adding up the costs associated with renting and operating the equipment, the cost to dispose of the cleared material, the time & labor required, and the hazards involved, you may be compelled to outsource your land clearing project to a professional landscape company in Kingsport, Johnson City, Bristol, or a nearby East Tennessee city. When you hire a land clearing company, professionals who are licensed to operate heavy machinery will do all the major legwork for you - completing the job safely, quickly, and thoroughly.

FAQs

HOW MUCH DOES LAND/LOT CLEARING COST?

Here in Kingsport, Land Clearing Costs will typically determined by the square footage of the area. The cost per square foot will vary based on three primary factors:

The type of vegetation and its density
The topography and terrain of the land
How challenging it will be to clear around the structures or vegetation that will remain untouched.

Any additional factors will be discussed during the initial onsite visit prior to making an estimate.

WHAT PERMITS ARE REQUIRED?

While permits are not always necessary for every lot that needs clearing, we will guide you if they are.

will stump grinding damage my property?

If done properly, stump grinding will not damage your property. Although our team is licensed, bonded, and insured, we would rather not ever have the need to rely on that. After a few months, most stump grinding jobs are almost unnoticeable because the surrounding grass will begin to grow over the area.

Will i be left with a giant hole on my property?

While stump removal can result in digging up the stump and leaving a large hole, most of our customers prefer stump grinding in which the stump is grinded into wood chips and mulch that will fill the hole. You will be left with a nice flat area with rich topsoil from the decaying wood chips that act as a natural compost material
