Land clearing
Raw land in. Usable ground out.
Whether you’re building a house, opening up a back pasture or getting family land ready to use, land clearing is usually more than one job. We put them together.
A typical clearing project combines tree removal for the large trees in the way, forestry mulching for the brush and small trees, and stump grinding where a slab, driveway or septic system is going in. Because it’s one crew doing all of it, you get one schedule and one price.

Clearing with the end in mind
Before we quote, we ask what the land is for. A homesite needs the pad, the driveway path and the drain field open — but you may want a wall of trees left along the road for privacy. A hunting tract needs lanes and plots, not a parking lot. We clear to the plan, not just “everything.”
Wetlands, drainage and permits
A lot of land on the Northshore is low, and some of it is jurisdictional wetland. Clearing in those areas can require permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the parish or your city. We’re not your permit office, but we walk every site first, point out anything that looks like it needs review, and won’t clear an area you haven’t confirmed is okay to clear.
