Key Benefits of This Service

You save time by consolidating multiple tasks into one service. Instead of hiring separate crews for tree removal, stump grinding, and grading, you get a unified approach that keeps your project on schedule. In Nashville, where soil conditions and root systems vary widely, working with a crew that understands local terrain makes a measurable difference.

Whisenhunt Excavation uses hydraulic excavators and grapple attachments to pull stumps and gather brush efficiently. Root raking ensures that underground growth is removed, not just surface vegetation. This step prevents regrowth and creates a stable foundation for construction.

Lot leveling follows clearing, using grading blades to smooth high spots and fill low areas. Proper slope is critical for water runoff, especially on properties near creeks or wetlands. You end up with a site that's not only clear but engineered for long-term stability.

What's Included in This Service

Landowners in Nashville often ask about stump depth, debris disposal, and how much leveling is possible on sloped terrain. Here's what you can expect from start to finish.

How deep do you remove stumps?
We typically remove stumps to a depth of 12 to 18 inches below grade. This allows for proper backfill and ensures roots won't interfere with grading or construction.

What happens to cleared brush and trees?
All debris is hauled off-site or chipped on location if you prefer. We coordinate disposal so your property stays clean throughout the process.

Can you level a lot with significant slope?
Yes. We use cut-and-fill grading to redistribute soil and create a level pad. Steeper slopes may require retaining walls or drainage features, which we can discuss during the site visit.

Do you handle root raking after tree removal?
Absolutely. Root raking pulls subsurface roots and organic material to prevent settling and weed growth. It's a critical step for any construction-ready lot in Nashville.

How long does it take to clear and prep a typical lot?
Most residential lots take one to three days depending on tree density, stump count, and grading needs. We provide a timeline after the initial walkthrough.

A clean, level lot sets the tone for every project that follows. Whether you're building, farming, or simply reclaiming usable space, the work starts with proper clearing and preparation. Contact us to get your land ready in Nashville.
