On Point Excavation is a small contractor focused on delivering quality work to its customers. Contact us today with any questions.

"If you're looking for quality work, Jake is the person to call! I hired him to install a drainage system for my sump pump, connecting it to the city's drain tile in my front yard. He was punctual for the estimate and managed to schedule the job quickly. When the day came, he arrived fully prepared with all the necessary materials. Throughout the process, Jake went above and beyond, even addressing additional issues that arose along the way. He's already working on an estimate for another project - replacing my driveway - and I won't hesitate to hire him again. With On Point Excavation, you can count on excellent results!"

Gene’s Water and Sewer can repair your broken sewer or water lines without disturbing your beautiful landscape. Using Nu Flow trenchless repair technology, new pipe liners can be installed in your current pipes without the need to dig trenches and tear up your yard. We’re certain you’ll appreciate the care your property will receive, and the money you’ll save from this revolutionary process.

"They showed up on time, explained what they would be doing, what they might find and what that would mean. They used professional equipment throughout, and It took two days, but the problem was resolved. They dug down to 7.5 feet (which was under the gas line!) and had to extend their initial excavation two times. Much dirt moved. The hole was filled in with the dirt taken out, but it was higher than the rest of the lawn, and will take about 12 months to settle back, as we've got clay in St. Anthony Village. I was expecting this."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Mound, MN

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.
