Family owned and operated Business. We do land clearing and forestry work for commercial, residential, farmland, hunting leases and clearing around ponds, retention ponds, railroad, bush hogging etc. Our heavy duty forestry equipment mulches all the underbrush and small trees. We also supply, move and deliver decorative boulders. Some topping 14000 pounds! Check us out on FaceBook at CURRY OUTDOORS INC. to view our videos of our equipment. Also Google us. We do NOT offer excavating services. While we own equipment that can do these, we stick to what we do best. Please DON'T select us if you need grading, leveling, dirt work, trenching, culvert. Home Advisior has limited categories to put contractors in. The excavating and site work is the best they have to put us in. We only clear properties of trees and underbrush. If you have any questions before you select us please call 937-790-0058 to see if we can help.

"They did much more then landscaping. They cleaned out my woods and yard, plus much more. They were wonderful and did much more then I could of imagined. I would recommend them to anybody. Great work ethic, hard workers and extremely professional."

"My 450 ft long driveway badly needed to be regraded and needed a solution to the 2-3 seasonal springs that drained and washed and created deep ruts all winter and spring. TSS came and really studied the problems of the driveway, figured out a great multiple pipe drainage solution, regraded, dug out a boulder that was slowly working its way to the surface, installed the pipes. They used larger gravel around the pipes and a thick layer of gravel and dust over everything. Then rolled/compacted it all with a 3 ton roller. All of this in one day. They were very easy to work with, really listened to all of the unique issues the driveway has, carefully dug out peonies that were in the way of one pipe's end. They did a wonderful job and I'm hoping I can hire them to clear a couple of difficult hillsides befor winter too. First time in years that I can ask people to my house and not explain how to get up the driveway! "

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Xenia, OH

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.
