Land Clearing in Franklin, WI
Clear trees, brush, and overgrowth to prep Franklin lots for building, additions, or new landscaping.
Why Franklin homeowners call us for land clearing
Whether you are prepping a Franklin building site, opening up a back lot that has gone to buckthorn and scrub, or making room for a garage, pool, or fence line, we clear it and haul it out. We walk the property with you first to mark what stays: specimen trees worth keeping, property pins, drainage, and anything a future contractor will need access to. Then we clear in stages so the site stays workable rather than turning into one giant debris pile.
Land clearing is priced per project based on acreage, tree density, stump handling, and haul distance. Every Franklin job starts with a free on-site estimate, and the price we write down is the price you pay.

Straight answers to what Franklin homeowners ask us most.
It is quoted per project. The drivers are lot size, how dense the tree and brush cover is, whether stumps come out or get ground, and how much material we haul. We walk the site and give you a fixed number.
It depends on the municipality, the acreage, and whether wetlands, shoreland, or protected right-of-way trees are involved. We flag anything that looks like it needs approval before work begins.
Yes, and we recommend it. Mature shade trees add real value. We walk the lot with you and flag keepers before a single cut.
Chipped and hauled by default. If you want chips retained for trails or beds, or logs cut to firewood length, we can do that on site.
