We clear the chaos to make room for your dreams.
Whether you are preparing to build your dream home or simply want to reclaim your backyard from the brush, an overgrown lot can feel like an impossible obstacle. We understand that your property has hidden potential waiting to be revealed—you just need the right team to uncover it.
Unlike standard excavators that scrape the earth bare and leave a muddy mess, we utilize advanced forestry mulching techniques to clear unwanted vegetation while preserving the soil and the trees you want to keep. We evaluate the topography, soil type, and vegetation to determine the best approach, ensuring we don’t just clear the land, but prepare it for its future purpose.
Choose Custom Forestry for budget-friendly, timely clearing that transforms your lot from a tangle of brush into a park-like setting or a construction-ready site.

We are different
Experience means we don’t just operate machinery; we apply a unique perspective based on decades of lived experiences to every project.
We help you pivot from raw acreage to a high-value asset. Because we use specialized forestry mulching equipment rather than heavy bulldozers, we don’t strip away your nutrient-rich topsoil or leave behind unsightly burn piles. This approach is critical for residential lots, as it preserves the integrity of the land for future construction and prevents the erosion problems that often plague traditional clear-cutting.
Whether you need to tame an overgrown backyard or prep a new site for construction, we deliver a “park-like” finish that is immediately walkable, visually stunning, and ready for your next step, whatever that may be.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you clear a lot for a new home build?
Yes. We specialize in preparing sites for construction. We can clear the footprint for your home, driveway, and septic area. Because we use mulching equipment, we leave a stable soil base that is often easier for builders to work with than a site that has been stripped of topsoil by a bulldozer.
What if I just want to clean up the woods, not clear-cut them?
This is our specialty. We can selectively remove invasive buckthorn, deadfall, and thick underbrush while leaving your mature “keeper” trees untouched. The result is a “park-like” aesthetic that improves visibility and airflow without removing the forest feel.
Do you handle really large trees?
Our primary mulching machine handles trees up to 8 inches in diameter efficiently. For larger timber, we have a team of skilled chainsaw laborers trained in safe and effective felling. We can combine these methods to handle any size project.
What happens to the debris?
With our forestry mulching process, there is no debris to haul away. The vegetation is ground into a fine mulch layer on the forest floor. This acts as a natural erosion barrier and returns nutrients to the soil, promoting the health of the remaining trees.
