Land & Lot Clearing Services — FAQs

What is included in land and lot clearing?

Our service includes clearing overgrown brush, tree removal, stump and root removal, and rough grading so your site is handoff-ready for construction or landscaping.

How much does land clearing cost in Buffalo, NY?

Pricing depends on lot acreage, tree density, brush severity, and grading needs. TreeCraft offers free on-site estimates by phone or through our online quote form.

Do I need a permit to clear land or cut down a tree on my property in NY?

Permitting depends on local town ordinances, property zoning, and whether the land contains protected wetlands. We ensure all clearing work in Buffalo, Rochester, and Batavia complies with local guidelines.

What is the best time of year for land clearing in Western NY?

Land clearing can be done year-round, but late fall and winter are often ideal because frozen ground minimizes soil disruption and leafless trees make clearing easier.

Can you save specific trees on the lot during clearing?

Yes, you can mark specific trees you want to keep, and our crew will clear selectively around them.

Do you handle stump and root removal during land clearing?

Yes, complete stump and root removal is included as part of our land clearing service to prepare the ground for building.

What are the steps involved in the lot clearing process?

We follow a straightforward four-step process: we begin with an initial site walk, clear trees and brush using the appropriate heavy equipment, remove stumps and debris, and finish by preparing the site for the final grading handoff.
