Before any construction or landscaping project can begin, you need a clean slate. Our site clearing services utilize heavy-duty equipment to remove overgrown brush, hazardous trees, and stubborn debris from your property. We specialize in transforming unmanageable acreage into build-ready terrain.

We don't just clear the land; we ensure the root systems and organic matter are handled properly to prevent future ground instability or regrowth.

Clearing Capabilities:

  • Complete Lot Clearing & Forestry Mulching
  • Invasive Species Removal (Buckthorn, Honeysuckle, etc.)
  • Stump Grinding & Root Ball Extraction
  • Construction Debris & Brush Haul-Away

Laser-guided site leveling and grading

Structural Site Leveling

Proper elevation is the foundation of every successful outdoor project. Our site leveling and grading services focus on creating perfectly flat surfaces for patios, sheds, and additions while ensuring positive drainage away from your foundation. In Minnesota, improper leveling is the #1 cause of basement flooding and ice heaving.

We use laser-guided technology to determine the exact pitch of your land. From correcting backyard "swamp" spots to prepping a perfectly level pad for a new pole barn or pool, our operators move soil with an eye for both structural physics and long-term land health.

Leveling & Grading Includes:

  • Laser-Accurate Pad Preparation for Sheds & Patios
  • Final Grading for Proper Drainage & Erosion Control
  • Rough Grading for New Construction & Yard Extensions
  • Soil Compaction & Stabilization for Structural Loads
