We are an excavating company with over 30 years experience. What kind of work do we do? Anything and everything dirt work related. The most common projects would be house pads, site prep, utilities, and road grading. However, we don't just stop there. We do demolition, water distribution, sewer installs, dump truck services and much more. When you call Canyon Edge Excavating LLC you get the owner bidding your project, and more than likely running the tractor. There are no huge overhead inflations with us. Give us a call!

"Canyon Edge demonstrated exceptional attentiveness and understanding throughout the process, showing genuine flexibility with both my budget and scheduling needs. I wholeheartedly recommend their services and fully intend to hire them again for future projects in the seasons and years ahead."

Republic West has been remodeling homes in Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix valley for over 20 years. That should speak volumes about our business, our work and our reputation. And, we stand behind our work with an industry leading 2 year labor warranty! As a result, we have numerous repeat customers who won't work with anyone else. Our partners, vendors and subcontractors are also veterans to remodeling and have worked with us for years. We are resellers of Bellmont, Master Brands and Nations cabinetry and have thousands of options for countertops, flooring, faucets and fixtures. Our Project and Interior Designers will guide you through the entire process. As a result, we focus on larger remodeling projects that may include a kitchen, bathroom(s), additions, whole home remodels and new builds. As a family run business, our owner focuses on customer relationships, accountability and integrity. We hope you will give us the chance to earn your business.

"I used Republic West to do a substantial remodel of my condominium unit. They were great at pre-planning and design and made several useful suggestions at the beginning and during the renovations. They were very good at communication throughout and the results were excellent and they stayed within budget and timeline."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Phoenix, 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.
