Reiss Earthworks brings expertise to the task of removing undesired vegetation through efficient mechanical extraction clearing methods. Utilizing heavy machinery and strategic planning to manage your property by clearing trees, brush, and undergrowth. Our brush-clearing services are designed to leave no stumps, offering flexibility for future use of the area.
By adopting this approach, the preservation of all possibilities is left open, creating a flexible canvas for your property. Decisions regarding on-site disposal or hauling off organics created during clearing are made based on the discussed scope of work during the consultation. Seeding services are available to reduce erosion risks on a newly cleared site. Additionally, chipping services are available for mulch or future use. At Reiss Earthworks, we are dedicated to delivering custom land clearing requests such as preservation efforts for specimen trees or entire species eradication.
Reiss Earthworks practices stump-free grubbing and dozing methods of tree removal. Stump-free grubbing contrasts with clear-cutting, where trees are cut near the ground and their stumps are left rooted in the ground. Stump-free grubbing is well-suited for properties requiring land clearing services, whether for new construction, fences, structures, creating personal spaces in the wilderness, or driveways. Our vegetation removal services start with a comprehensive consultation, where you communicate your needs and project scope. We provide a preliminary plan and estimate for the services required.
Our Vegetation Removal Process
The vegetation removal process involves careful steps, starting with small vegetation removal using an excavator machine’s bucket or attachment. This includes uprooting bushes, small trees, and underbrush. Larger trees are approached methodically, utilizing the excavator’s bucket to dig around the tree, exposing the roots. The soil and root system around the tree is gradually loosened, enabling the lifting of the tree with a controlled fall direction to prevent damage.
Any remaining stumps are removed by digging around the base with the excavator’s bucket, rocking the stump back and forth to sever root connections and loosen it from the soil, and lifting the stump while shaking off excess soil. All affected areas undergo expert grading and preparation for your future use.
It’s important to note that specific steps and material choices can vary based on factors such as climate, soil conditions, construction modalities, and intended use. Consulting with professional services such as civil or geotechnical engineering, or hydrologists is always a good idea to tailor the installation process to the unique circumstances of your project.
