"The work was done thoroughly and Jim did the extra of making sure things in the yard were not damaged. He did a great job of getting our yard graded to eliminate water issues we had from torrential rain storms. He listens and explains what he needs to do. I had to move some landscaping rock so he could drive his Bobcat through the front yard. He cleaned up at the end of the work."

"We had Gene at Canyon edge Excavating complete our project in Munds Park this week. We needed a trench dug over 100? from a power pole to our property with all the necessary conduit, sweeps, depths etc for APS. Genes communication every step of the way was outstanding! I work in the construction industry dealing with contractors every day and there is no one better. He made sure everything was Blue Staked, ensured all County easements were correct and dealt with APS for the inspections. I highly recommend Gene and Canyon Edge Excavating!! I definitely will be using him again for our pad and other projects."

"Jerry Finney and his team were amazing to work with. I have never had a home renovation project go so smoothly. Jerry was great at keeping us updated on the progress, gave us realistic timelines and his team showed up everyday as promised. They were kind, professional and respectful. The cleanup was perfect and each piece of the project went smoothly. I couldnâ t be more thrilled. We had our pool filled in and turf added to the backyard, our rock in the yard was refreshed and we had new gates added to our yard. We will be spending a lot of time enjoying our low maintenance backyard. A HUGE thank you to Jerry and his team for a job well done. I would highly recommend AZ Home Services, you wonâ t be disappointed."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Mesa, AZ

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.
