"These guys did an outstanding job of fixing the flood damage we had from Hurricane Helene. A ditch line that runs the length of our property was seriously eroded which resulted in our driveway and yard becoming unstable. These guys came in an took on an extremely difficult assignment and stabilized our property. To be honest we were unsure that the yard could ever be fixed. But they definitely got the job done. They worked tirelessly and treated our home and property like they were doing the job for themselves. They never took a break and completed an almost impossible task in short time frame. There is no way I could give these guys a stronger positive recommendation for the work that they accomplished. I will never use anyone else to do a task like this in the future. The only issue is that they are in high demand, and we had to wait 9 months for them to get an open appointment to get the work done. But in the end, it was well worth the wait!"

Customers say: Quick response

"I’ve had difficulty finding someone to make repairs to my existing irrigation system. Everyone wants to install but not do repairs when a valve breaks or head needs replaced or there is a leak - seems to be a real shortage in the Hickory region of people who will do irrigation repairs. That was my problem until we found Austin with 828 Landscape. He is professional, a good communicator and is totally about finding the problem and fixing it. I almost hesitate to post this review because then he’ll get too busy to work on my system when I need him."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Clinton, NC

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.
