Home Services Land clearing

Land clearing in Cumming & Dawsonville that opens up the lot.

Overgrown, wooded, or grown over — cleared back to usable ground for a build, a fence line, a garden, or just to take your property back.

An overgrown lot hides more than it shows. Under the brush and vines there are old stumps, holes, drainage problems, and the kind of pests that move in when nobody's using the ground — snakes, ticks, and rodents. Until it's cleared, you can't really see what you have or use it for anything.

We clear lots back to workable ground: underbrush, scrub, saplings, and small trees pulled out, property lines opened up, and the vegetative debris hauled off. Whether you're prepping for a build, running a new fence, putting in a garden, or cutting a firebreak, clearing is the first step.

Before any digging starts, buried utility lines get located through 811 — so a clearing job stays a clearing job and doesn't turn into a gas or power emergency. We work lots across Cumming and Dawsonville.

Lot clearing

Ready the ground for what's next.

Most clearing jobs are the first move on a bigger plan — a house, an addition, a new driveway or access road, a fence, or a garden. We pull the growth, clear the footprint, and open up the space so the next trade isn't fighting through brush to get started.

Cleared property lines make surveys, fences, and neighbor boundaries obvious again, and a clean firebreak puts distance between the woods and anything you want to protect.

Brush, debris & safety

Cleared out, hauled off, checked first.

Underbrush, scrub, saplings, small trees, and the vines that tie it all together come out, and the vegetative debris leaves with us — no burn pile left in the middle of the lot for you to deal with.

The part you don't see is the part that matters most: we locate buried utilities before we dig, so nobody hits a gas, water, power, or communications line.

Why we call 811 first

Gas, water, power, and internet lines run under a lot more yards than people expect. Calling 811 to have them located before digging is free and required by law in Georgia — and it's the difference between a clean clearing job and a very expensive, very dangerous mistake.

Questions

Land clearing, answered.

Do you check for underground utilities before you dig?
Yes — always. Before any digging or grubbing, buried lines get located through the 811 call-before-you-dig system so we're not cutting into gas, water, power, or communications. It's free, it's the law in Georgia, and it keeps a clearing job from turning into an emergency.
What size trees and brush can you clear?
Land clearing covers underbrush, scrub, saplings, and small trees, plus the tangle of vines and growth that takes over an unused lot. For large or hazardous trees, that's our tree service — and since it's the same crew, we can handle both in one visit.
What happens to all the debris?
It leaves with us. Brush, stumps, and vegetative debris get removed and hauled off so you're left with a clean, usable lot — not a burn pile you have to deal with later.
Can you clear a lot for a build or an addition?
That's a big part of what land clearing is for — opening up a lot for construction, an addition, a new driveway or access, a garden, or a structure. We clear it and grade the ground so it's ready for whatever's going in next.
