Land Clearing in Gretna
Taking a piece of raw land and turning it into something nice (like a pool, garden, home addition, mother-in-law suite, play area for the kids, etc.) is something you might be dreaming about. If you've never done it before - you should be encouraged to know that it is very doable. In fact, people are doing it all the time!
However, you should also know that it is a process. There are many t’s to cross and i’s to dot before you can enjoy the space as you’ve envisioned it. The very first step in this process is LAND CLEARING. Land clearing (or lot clearing) is when we remove trees, bushes, rocks, loose and miscellaneous debris from your property; stumps are eliminated, holes are filled in, land is leveled. In other words, land clearing is the first step in the process of making your property ready! It opens up all the possibilities for any project you may have in mind. This is a service we offer here at Gretna Trees, and it is something we are very good at. Would you like us to come out and look at a piece of property for you? We love helping our customers, and would love to come out to talk with you, give you some options, free of charge. Give us a call at (504) 315-1704, and we’ll come see how we can help you. |

What Kind of Equipment Will You Use?
What equipment we choose to use will depend largely on the scope of your project.
If your project is smaller, we may be able to use something called a “cut and grind” method. This is for smaller projects and employs the use of root plows or other smaller equipment.
If you project is bigger, we may bring in bigger equipment, such as a bulldozer. In order to remove the larger debris from the property, a pullover technique is often used. This is when we attach large chains to tractors in order to haul off big debris.
Whether your project is large or small, the tree removal process will be the same for both. The trees will be brought down with whatever machine is necessary, depending on its size. This often involves cherry pickers, chainsaws, and rope saws, loppers, etc. Trees will need to be felled, chopped up and hauled away. The stumps will also need to be eliminated. If you are planning a garden, you might want to consider using the mulch for your garden, as this is a free benefit after cutting down your trees.
This is one of the advantages to using Gretna Trees, because land clearing is closely related to tree removal. And while we are a tree company, we are also a land clearing company! We love performing this service for our customers, because it is literally handing off a fresh start.
We are fully licensed and equipped to handle any land clearing project that you may have, be it large or small. Give us a call today at (504) 315-1704, if you’d like us to come look at your property.
We’ll carefully listen to your ideas, and then share how we might be able to help you fulfill your vision for your property.
