"This company gets the job done, at a reasonable price. They show up for work in the morning and work until sunset. They are hard working and reliable. They completed the job to my satisfaction and were very flexible with adding scope to the project. The owner, Devin, is very easy to work with. I highly recommended them for any land clearing or grading project."

"What great brothers and absolutely the best at what they do! They cut trees down, cleared under brush, made a steep slope not so steep, planted grass, pulled some bushes up. Graded around a 60x40 concrete pad and leveled it until it was even and then put gravel around the entire pad. We both are loving the way everything looks and turned out! Thank you Zack and Patrick! We will definitely use your company again!"

"We have been in my home for 17 years. The backyard did not look like it did when they were done. Our backyard is bigger. Josh and Alan made our yard look amazing! We had so much overgrowth it was unreal, and it looked like it was going to engulf our home. The backyard was never easy to mow, and it always had this small look to it from the design of the development company. It was cluttered looking. See we had shopped around for a while and were not pleased with what we ran into. We put in a search at Home Advisor and they popped up. We are so incredibly happy with our selection of Gordonâ s Southern Land Management. They are Pleasant, Professional and a breath of fresh air to speak with. They arrived on time when they said and taught us so much about our land. They were not bothered by my questions about the equipment or about certain areas in my yard. My husband laughed at me because I was like a kid at Christmas watching them work. They did exactly what we discussed in our 1st consultation, but to me they did so much more. They are also highly informative and explained so much to me about my yard, even gave me visions for the yard. The Goat was amazing to watch at work ( not a real goat)! The best way I could explain my back yard was a wild area, a Jungle. Josh and Alan came in trimmed, shaved, cleared, and leveled a working canvas of opportunities for us to create our dream backyard. As I gaze upon my finished yard, I cried because it is so beautiful, and in the time of COVID-19 I can find peace and serenity in my backyard away from the world. I can never say it enoughâ Thank You So Much Josh and Alan for everything you both have done.â I would and have recommended people to them and will continue to do so! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us back our backyard. I promise to take care of it. Ms. Cheryl"

"Very professional and did an amazing job. Eddie was very responsive and came out and provided a very reasonable quote. Eddie and his team were very communicative, punctual and made the extra efforts to support any future drainage issues. Our pool came up level and we look forward to a fun summer in a level pool!"

"I hired SCC Asphalt to install a new driveway over gravel (Work completed 2/6/19). This was a rather large job with a 100 foot hill leading up to a big circle drive at the top of the driveway. I must say that the professionalism and quality of the work was outstanding. Clint followed through with every aspect of the job with no sidetracks or excuses. What's equally important is Clint's crew. Those guys are top notch. They don't have mere weeks, or months of experience. Many of them have decades in the industry, and talking to them really solidified that importance. I was on the job site the whole time, asking never ending questions, and not once did I feel like I was being a burden, and I always got a great explanation I was very nervous before the job because I did not know what to expect, even though SCC had great reviews on home advisor. However, after watching them work, and seeing my beautiful driveway completed, I had zero doubt that I made the correct choice. Now, I have to be honest and say that, since this is my first experience with Clint, we will see about the service I get if there are any follow-up issues, or when the time comes to seal the driveway. However, I am completely confident that Clint will stand behind his work and ensure that my satisfaction is his highest priority. I realize that being a residential customer, I am not even close to being one of his biggest customers, but I truly felt like I was his only client. To say that I would recommend SSC Asphalt would be a major understatement. Seldom do contractors like Clint come around. He made a name for himself the right way; working hard, honoring his word and staying true what he believes. I have no doubt that Clint, and his business, will continue to be extremely successful in the years to come. I can't wait to see my driveway after he comes back to seal it. As good as it looks now, It's hard to imagine it getting any better. Regards, Mike"

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Carnesville, GA

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.
