High Cause Construction is a company that is based off of all excavation an grading needs for your residential home . Serving expertise in French drains , Gutter run offs systems , Soil an fill spreading , Driveway Spreading , Retaining walls , Paver Installs , Stone, Fill Dirt an soil delivery along with other High Cause Construction needs.

"Sean was very responsive and professional all along from the first time I called. He waited patiently while I vetted other companies and was ready with the culvert when the other companies weren't. I didn't expect him to be able to get to me so soon due to a big job he was on ahead of me but he came and got it done quickly and neatly. It turned out that the old culvert had been crushed with blacktop pieces so they had to leave and bring in a claw truck to get it out but they got it done. Very nice people that I would definitely hire again."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in East Stroudsburg, PA

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.
