"Jen2 Excavating is an exceptional company in multiple ways. Yes, Marcus Garcia and his Jen2 team are prompt, polite, hardworking, from start to finish and estimate and price the work accurately and fairly. There is more to the story. We attempted to contact eight Pueblo and Pueblo West Companies to clear the tall grass, weeds, and brush that was rapidly overtaking our desert landscaped property. We sent them all a brief standardized description of the work and the land areas involved. Jen2 alone, responded immediately, came out the same day to estimate the work, and a week later our acre size yard was restored and cleared, and we were delighted with the work done. The other service companies contacted either failed to respond altogether or sent prefabricated emails and text messages within the time it took Jen2 to finish the work. So, start by contacting Jen2 if you have tall grass, weeds, and brush removal job, and avoid the disinterested candidates."

"I was in a major water emergency. Called and they literally dropped everything to fix the leaks and reinstall a new hydrant. They stand behind their work 100%. Needed another hydrant. Existing one leaking heavily underground They were there and done before I knew they were even on the way. Have another current major leak and, please God, I will see Michael and crew rolling in soon"

"Fantastic! Snaked and scoped the sewer line and found that there needed to be a clean out installed. Went and got the parts and did it right then, working into the dark hours in the middle of winter. He came out the day that I called him, after all other companies in the area stated "nothing could be done". I would recommend him over and over and over again! He also charged the most fair price as anyone in town and provided higher quality and better services than they were."

"I recently hired a trench digging service for my backyard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The crew arrived on time, equipped with all the necessary tools, and displayed a high level of professionalism throughout the process. The trench itself was dug with precision and attention to detail. It was exactly the dimensions we discussed, which was crucial for the drainage system we were installing. What particularly impressed me was how they managed to minimize the disruption to my existing landscaping. They took extra care to ensure the surrounding areas were left intact, which I really appreciated. As for pricing, I found their rates to be very reasonable considering the quality of work provided. After reviewing other quotes from different services, I can confidently say that I got great value for my money. There were no hidden fees or surprises."

"Arkansas River Valley Contracting did an amazing job on my new deck! I live in Manitou Springs and let's just say my place is "Manitou Typical", so John had some surprises pop up and had to problem solve on the fly. He was quick, efficient and upbeat despite these challenges. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!"

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Gardner, CO

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.
