"C2G was excellent during the entire process. they had a quote to my in less than 24 hours and promptly answered my questions when I called them. Once I selected them they were able to schedule the job just a few days out and I could not have been more satisfied with the outcome. The two workers who did the job were knowledgeable and respectful. In over 20 years of home ownership I would have to say this was the best experience I ever had with a home contractor."

"Eric was right on point and identified the solution and scope of work very promptly. He is a very good communicator via text and in person. I thought his pricing was very fair. He worked to install gutter on my roof, drainage piping, and a trench drain on the side of my driveway to mitigate erosion. He rototilled, fertilized, and installed sod on my formerly eroded front lawn. The work came out fantastic and my neighbors keep complementing me on how nice my house looks now."

"Jared quoted a regrade landscaping project for us to control water across our driveway. His quote was very detailed and his explanation of the job was clear. Jared arrived as expected and handled the job efficiently. We had a major rain storm the day after he completed the job, and he checked in with us to ensure the water was flowing as expected. We were so impressed with his professionalism and quality of work, that we hired him for a follow on job to re-grade and seed our entire front lawn. I would highly recommend him for any grading, landscaping, and excavating you need."

"We interviewed 3 contractors. The quotes were close, but we felt more confident with Shawn's vision. We had a very large area to excavate and landscape. We had many trees removed and close to some wetland area which could not be disturbed. Shawn had a vision and we let him run with it. Timing wise he finished up just prior to the start of many long periods of rain. It was a very big project, and he mostly worked alone. He brought in some help for top soil raking and prep for the hydro seed. Shawn is a good guy. Very pleased with his work and glad he's out there doing the this work. We love the yard, it came out great."

"Excellent communication before during and after the project! C&R Construction started and finished the job on schedule and went above and beyond expectations to make our deck look outstanding. When our railings were delayed by the supplier, they went to pick them up for us. They really take pride in their work, kept the site clean and worked with us on the smallest details. I wouldnâ t hesitate to hire them again and we really love our new deck!"

"Amazing work from start off consulting through the end of the project. Very well rounded crew and amazing customer service. They kept me informed of the project every step of the way including when they were finding some damaged pipes under ground that we were not aware of. It reminded me of the type of contractors from home where I grew up in the South that were not out for the money but instead were in the business because they like the work and they love helping people accomplish their dream landscapes."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Manchester, NH

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.
