Our Services
From raw mountain land to build-ready lots. Veteran-owned. NC Licensed. Fully insured.
Forestry Mulching
Forestry mulching is the most efficient and environmentally responsible way to clear land in the mountains. Our Bobcat T86 with a carbide mulching head grinds trees, brush, and stumps in a single pass — leaving behind a natural mulch layer that prevents erosion and enriches the soil. No burning, no hauling, no mess.
- Single-pass clearing — trees, brush & stumps
- Prevents erosion — no bare soil exposed
- No burning or hauling required
- Ideal for steep mountain terrain
- Leaves nutrient-rich mulch layer
- Faster and more affordable than traditional clearing
- Residential, commercial & government projects
- Right-of-way and utility corridor clearing
Lot Prep & Rough Grading

We get your lot ready for the permit office and your builder.

Stump Removal

Natural Tick Reduction Perimeter Barrier
We install a 3-foot wide by 1-foot deep trench filled with premium cedar mulch, followed by targeted cedar oil treatment. This creates a powerful natural barrier that significantly reduces tick movement from wooded areas into your yard. One of the most effective natural tick reduction solutions available for Western NC mountain properties.
- 3-ft wide × 1-ft deep cedar mulch trench
- Cedar oil treatment for added repellency
- Physical barrier ticks are reluctant to cross
- 100% natural — zero synthetic chemicals
- Safe for children, pets & beneficial insects
- Major reduction in tick activity reported
- Gold standard width per tick extension services
- Deeper fill = longer-lasting premium results
