We have been in the septic business for over 15yrs, but septic isn't all we do here at Mahan Septic & Dirt Work, we offer excavating services, demo/cleanup, junk/debris removal, tree/stump trimming/removal, and hauling/moving services. We take great pride in making sure customers never feel like they didn't get their money's worth when hiring Mahan Septic. Going that extra step, is worth a mile in the end.

"Clint Mahan did quality work, replacing my old septic system, working with my subdivision waste water treatment plant to purchase the new system, install it and left my yard flat and even. My neighbor even commented on the nice job. Clint also saved me extra costs by devising a way to close my cap without my having to buy an extension. Really appreciated the quality work. Hire this guy - honest, dependable, and does the work like he says he will do."

Building site preparation and clearings FAQs

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.
