"Submitted a request through one of the contractor finder services, and Thomas from Bladecutters called within minutes of the request went out. I spoke with Thomas about the work I wanted performed (some grading and installation of a parking pad). Thomas provided suggestions on how the work should be done and some of the options I would have regarding materials. He provided a quote for the work within a day, and was able to complete the work within a week. Thomas showed up on time, was respectful of the property, and was pleasant to work with. He kept me updated on his progress throughout the work. When he identified potential issues, he provided suggestions for how we could address these. I am very pleased with the work performed, and would not hesitate to hire Bladecutters again."

"Dmarcus did a great job installing a French drain and grading the land at an appropriate slope. He took the time to answer my questions and planned the job with me. He installed the drain taking into consideration the nearby tree roots and cleared obstructions. Would recommend Dmarcus for any landscaping job. "

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Tampa, FL

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.
