"I hired American Elite Contractors Inc to renovate my Apartment. Eric walked me through the process. Eric and his crew were very prompt, efficient, respectful and extremely professional. I would give Eric and his crew more than 5 stars if I could. They gave me the best price and their quality of work is definitely worth the money. I highly recommend them."

"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!"

"John came within few days and provided an estimate. He explained to me
that I would only see bare branches for year or so when I cut to half
size. I appreciated the warning. The work was done the following week
shortly after I confirmed I wanted to hire them.John came to give
directions to the 3 workers before they started. I stayed in yard during
most of the work so I could change my mind about extent of downsizing
trees during the progression.  
The men clearly were used to trimming hollys which was a relief since I
have not been able to find any tree companies in the past 15 years who
even wanted to do it. One man climbed into the holly while another
worked from the ground with the long clippers.  Everything went smoothly
and all degree was removed.

"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!"

"Marcos and his team did a wonderful job repairing our stone porch which had been damaged in a storm. While the estimate was on the higher end of the quotes I received, the quality of the work was outstanding. They had to deconstruct and reassemble/regrade part of our stone porch. The project timelines were clearly communicated and the work was done exactly as described. Since then, I've reached out to Marcos on two other projects.....I would absolutely recommend Marcos and his team."

"Mike was incredibly responsive and helpful when we asked him for a quote on our garage reno/conversion project. He was able to field all of our questions, meet us on site, and text us with examples when discussing appliances that would be included in the project. He is extremely professional and transparent, and we would highly recommend him to others, especially first-timers!"

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