So, you’ve got a property full of overgrowth, tangled brush, a couple of stubborn tree stumps, and you’re thinking… “Yeah, this has got to go.” When you finally decide to go forward with that new build you’ve been thinking about or just want to reclaim some space—you’re officially in land-clearing territory. And we’re here for it.
Let’s look into what land clearing is, when it’s the right move, and why hiring professionals (like us!) makes all the difference.
When Should You Clear Land?
First off, when should you actually clear land? Honestly, more often than you’d think. If you’re planning on building a home, garage, shed, patio, or just about anything, clearing the area is step one. But even if you’re not building, land clearing can be the answer. Got stumps tripping you up? Brush taking over your yard? Drainage issues after every rainfall? Those are all signs it might be time to clear things out. We’ve helped folks who just wanted to see their backyard again—so if your property feels more like a forest than a lawn, it’s probably time.
Why Bother Clearing It?
Besides the obvious “it looks better” factor, there are a bunch of practical reasons to go to the trouble of land clearing, too. Clearing out dead trees and tangled brush makes your yard way safer—no more worrying about falling limbs or hidden hazards. It also helps with drainage, which means fewer puddles and way less mud. And yes, if you’re thinking about selling or just want to boost your curb appeal, a clean, open space definitely ups your property value.
How Does It Actually Work?
Land clearing means more than just grabbing a chainsaw and going rogue. When you call Bergholz’s Tree Experts, we start with a walkthrough of your property. We chat about your goals, what you want to keep, what’s gotta go, and how we can make it happen. Then we build a game plan that keeps your space safe and your vision front and center. Once we’re on-site, our crew handles everything—trees, brush, stumps, debris—you name it.
Why Hire the Pros (a.k.a. Us)?
Now, we know there’s always the temptation to DIY. But unless you’ve got access to heavy-duty equipment, safety training, and a solid weekend to spare, we highly recommend calling in the pros. We’ve got the gear, the experience, and the years under our collective belt to get it done quickly without damaging your property—or your back. Plus, we’re licensed, insured, and local, which means we treat every project like it’s in our own backyard.
