Our Land clearing Process
we don’t just show up and start chopping. We have a careful process to make sure the job is done right:
1. First Look and Planning: We start by visiting your site and taking a good look around. We’ll check out what needs to be cleared and make a plan. This helps us work safely and efficiently.
2. Cutting and Removing Plants: We use different tools depending on what we’re removing. For small plants and bushes, we might use trimmers or cutters. For bigger trees, we’ll use chainsaws and other special equipment.
3. Taking Down Trees: If there are trees that need to go, we’ll cut them down carefully. We’re experts at this, so we can make sure trees fall exactly where we want them to, without damaging anything nearby.
4. Getting Rid of Stumps: After a tree is cut down, the stump is left behind. We can remove these too, using special machines that grind the stump down below ground level.
5. Clearing Smaller Plants: We’ll also clear away any smaller plants, weeds, or grass that needs to go. This might involve using brush cutters or other tools.
6. Dealing with the Waste: We don’t just leave piles of branches and leaves behind. We’ll chip up the smaller stuff, which can be used as mulch. Larger pieces of wood might be cut into logs. We’ll make sure everything is either reused or disposed of properly.
Types Of Sites We Clear
Different projects need different types of clearance. Here are some of the services we offer:
1. Home Clearance: If you’re a homeowner looking to clear your yard or make space for a new garden, we can help. We’ll remove unwanted trees, shrubs, and other plants to give you a clean slate.
2. Business and Factory Clearance: For our commercial clients, we offer larger-scale clearance. This might involve clearing land for new buildings, parking lots, or other developments.
3. Getting Land Ready for Building: If you’re a developer or planning to build something new, we can prepare your land. We’ll remove all vegetation and obstacles, leaving you with a clean site ready for construction.
4. Forest and Woodland Work: We also work in larger wooded areas. This might involve thinning out trees to improve forest health, or clearing sections for new uses.
Benefits Of Professional Clearance
You might be thinking, “Can’t I just clear the land myself?” While it’s possible to do some clearing on your own, there are good reasons to hire professionals like us:
1. Safety First: Clearing land can be dangerous, especially when it involves cutting down trees or using heavy machinery. We’re trained to do this work safely, reducing the risk of accidents or injuries.
2. Saving Time and Effort: What might take you weeks of hard work, we can often do in a day or two. We have the right tools and experience to work quickly and efficiently.
3. Caring for the Environment: We know how to clear land while minimizing damage to the environment. We can identify plants that should be protected and take steps to preserve wildlife habitats where possible.
4. Following the Rules: There are laws and regulations about cutting down trees and clearing land. We know these rules and can make sure your project follows them, avoiding any potential legal issues.
Our Equipment and Tools
To do our job well, we use a variety of specialized equipment:
– Chainsaws: For cutting down trees and large branches.
– Brush Cutters: To clear smaller plants and undergrowth.
– Stump Grinders: These machines grind tree stumps down below ground level.
– Wood Chippers: To turn branches and small trees into useful mulch.
– Excavators: For removing larger stumps and roots.
– Safety Gear: Including hard hats, safety glasses, ear protection, and steel-toed boots.
We make sure all our equipment is well-maintained and up-to-date. This helps us work safely and efficiently.
Taking Care of the Environment
At The Gravesend Tree Surgeon, we believe in taking care of nature even as we clear land. Here’s how we do that:
1. Saving Important Plants: Before we start clearing, we identify any plants that should be saved. This might include rare species or trees that are important to the local ecosystem.
2. Protecting Wildlife: We’re careful to check for animal habitats before we start work. If we find nesting birds or other wildlife, we’ll work around them or delay the job if necessary.
3. Smart Waste Handling: We don’t just send everything to the landfill. Wood chips from our chipper can be used as mulch in gardens. Larger pieces of wood might be used for firewood. We always look for ways to reuse or recycle what we remove.
4. Using Eco-Friendly Methods: When possible, we use methods that are gentler on the environment. For example, we might use hand tools instead of machines in sensitive areas.
5. Replanting: In some cases, we can help with replanting after the clearance is done. This might involve planting new trees or laying grass seed to prevent soil erosion.
