From clean ups to full lot clearings our crew is equipped to perform any level of tree work. If you have a large tree close to your house we can safely remove the tree and the stump all in the same day. After the trees are cut down we remove all logs, branches and debris and leave no trace. We own and operate a full sawmill, Woodstock Beam Works, where we can take a log, mill it into lumber, kiln dry it and custom build tables, bar tops etc. We put safety and the environment first. We are a Green company and we respect your property and the safety of all involved.

"My wife and I called J and J Tree Works to remove a MASSIVE eighty feet high Norway Spruce tree from our yard. We live in the village so we thought that it would be very difficult to remove between houses.....well it might have been difficult for any other tree removal service, but not for J and J! They came with a very professional crew and had the tree taken down and removed safely in only TWO hours! Those guys are incredible! We will certainly be using them in the future on other properties that we have! We highly recommend J and J Tree Works! When you use them you will not be disappointed!"

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Ellenville, NY

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.
