We remove agreed trees, thick brush and specified stumps from lots, future homesites and access routes around Tuscaloosa. Tracked excavators handle larger trunks and root work; loading and haul-off are listed in your quote. We mark retained trees and clearing limits before work starts.
Best for larger trees, stump and root work, and a defined development footprint.
The owners wanted space for an additional barn on their lightly wooded 3-acre property. We removed the unwanted trees and underbrush, ground the specified stumps and hauled away the clearing debris. This opened the footprint for the next stage of property preparation.
Our process starts by marking the clearing area and trees you want to keep. We use tracked excavators with buckets and hydraulic thumbs to handle trunks, specified stumps and loading. We separate debris with root-rake or loader work, then complete the hauling and ground finish included in your quote.
Loblolly pine, red and white oaks, sweetgum and yellow-poplar are recorded in Tuscaloosa County forests. Each parcel has a different mix of trunks, understory and retained trees. We assess roots, access and runoff before setting the clearing footprint, with separate checks for wet areas and lake-adjacent work.
The address and scope determine the approvals. City land-development requirements include commercial soil disturbance and properties directly adjacent to Lake Tuscaloosa. Some lake-watershed building projects require a site stabilization plan. ADEM construction stormwater coverage generally applies at one acre or more, including smaller work in a larger common plan. Northport and unincorporated County properties use their own local processes.
Forestry mulch normally remains on the ground. For tree removal and land clearing, define whether material will be hauled away, processed on-site or left in agreed locations. Stump grinding and root extraction should also be listed separately.
Yes. We mark trees to keep and plan equipment access around their roots before cutting. Machinery, debris piles and grade changes can damage roots even if the trunk remains. We also identify utilities, boundaries and any applicable tree protections before work begins.
