"Austin Deck Company – Wow and Thank You!!! Look no further if you want to hire a great company with rich history to build the deck of a lifetime. After Stephanie and I contacted Abe for a quote, it was apparent that he understood the scope of our project, and the challenges that he and his company would face, nevertheless, Abe was on our property in a quick manner to size up the job and was attentive to our vision, and directly put his knowledge and years of experience to work in making wise suggestions, and out of the box thinking. We had other quotes that were lower, (Austin Deck we not the highest), but in the end, we felt that the wide-ranging choice of deck materials that Abe could offer, (when other contractors only had a few choices), as well as the amount of detail that went into the site visit, quotation and care of the client, made it clear that Abe and his company were the right choice. We could not risk a project like this on unknown and unproven contractors. Abe provided multiple renderings and detailed information on our two-level deck build. We had multiple changes thought the design process and even in active construction, nevertheless Abe and his team were able to accommodate all changes. The deck build was very challenging as the location of the deck build was perched on massively sloped land that is cliff based overlooking the Lake Travis (Main Basin). Abe and his large crew showed up as expected on the first day, and Abe walked his crew through the design and construction elements of the job. The crew had the old deck demolished and the land prepared in 1 day. The crew had to mix more than 2 pallets of bagged concrete just for the 20 concrete footings that they had to lay into the even and uneven land. Multiple hours were spent with a jackhammer to get deep enough into the bedrock to ensure the job was done properly, but the crew handled it with ease. Abe and his team were extremely efficient and professional. The quality of the finished product far exceeded our expectations. The job was complete in 5 days! Stephanie and I can't thank Abe, his crew and Jennifer in the office enough for the wonderful job they did on our deck and the fabulous customer service that they provided. There is no doubt that we recommend Austin Deck Company to anyone looking for the best company to build a master planned, quality deck and decking services!"

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Burnet, TX

A professional team can clear an acre of land in as little as two to twelve hours, depending on your land's condition. You'll need to consider factors like vegetation density, terrain features, and obstacles such as trees, stumps, rocks, or existing structures can increase the time required. If your land is heavily wooded or has uneven terrain, expect the process to take longer and require more effort.

If you're looking to clear land for a pasture, expect to pay between $400 and $600 per acre for forestry mulching or $500 to $5,600 per acre for conventional land clearing. When choosing a method, consider:

  • Forestry Mulching: Leaves organic material in the soil, promoting new ground cover growth.

  • Conventional Clearing: You might lose valuable topsoil during this process.

A land-clearing project typically involves several key steps to prepare your property for construction or landscaping. First, assess your land and obtain any necessary permits from your local building department. Then, professionals use specialized equipment to remove trees, stumps, brush, and vegetation. After clearing, they haul away debris and may perform grading to level the land, ensuring it's ready for your intended use.

Preparing land to build a house typically costs between $1,000 and $4,000, depending on your land's size and condition. This includes clearing space for the foundation, which may involve removing trees, stumps, brush, and leveling or grading the site. Don't forget to budget for additional costs like permits, fees, and installing utility connections such as gas lines, water lines, and sewer mains.
