"I hired American Elite Contractors to build a 8 unit building for me. They made the most complex project a breeze. Their pricing was fair compared to the other prices I got. They were very professional, punctual and communicative. If I could give them 10 stars I would. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a general contractor. These guys are the real deal!!!!"

"Hire Jonathan in 2017 to build a new outdoor, two-level deck for our new home. This project involved deconstruction, removal of the previous deck, a large amount of landscaping, wood working, excavating, and working with the town for permitting. Jonathan did a great job managing our expectations, walking us through the plan, as well as educating us about what would be required for such a project. Jonathan and his team were patient with us, walking us through materials, labor, licensing, and all of the other costs and timelines for the project. Jonathan also walked us through all of our options for materials, finishing, and even the details about how the deck would be attached to the bedrock, and the house. When work started, Jonathan's team was very professional. They kept the workspace, and the house tidy, and Jonathan was always very patient with all of our questions. During construction, like I'm sure many projects,Issues arose the required us to change our plans. There was a large tree that was too close to the deck, and we had to remove the tree, as well as alter some plants for the deck. The team was very helpful and very flexible during this whole process. The end result of the projects were better than I could have anticipated. We now have a beautiful outdoor deck, that we enjoy frequently. We would enthusiastically use finest craftsman again!"

"Eddy and his team trimmed seven pine trees for us, and the result was
outstanding. Excellent service! They were prompt, friendly, and very professional.
Very fair price, great work, cleaned up everything
(couldn't tell they had even been here, except for the outcome). Eddy
really knows his trees, and we recommend Double Tree with our
highest recommendation!"

"All the workers were great. From demo to the final paving, Cristhian and his men were very professional. They installed our driveway during three of the hottest days in June but they continued working hard throughout these days. When an issue arose, it was handled professionally and at a reasonable cost. The guy who build my wall was an artist and left me and my family very satisfied. The final driveway is the talk of the neighborhood and several people of asked for his phone number. YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY HIRE THEM!"

"Awesome job. Marcos and his crew more than exceeded my expectations for the job. They were professional, and courteous. The job took just over two days. Day one was excavating and framing, day two was pouring, finishing, and landscaping. The job site was left neat after day one, and Marcos & his crew didn't leave on day two until all the landscaping was made neat and the job site cleaned up. I have already had several compliments from neighbors and have recommended Marcos and MAS Masonry & Landscaping to others. I would definitely use Marcos and his crew again."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Port Chester, NY

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.
