Featured Contractor
AlpenCo
AlpenCo provides land clearing and site preparation services for Summit and Wasatch County parcels. They handle the work that raw land buyers need done before a builder or excavation crew can get on site — brush clearing, tree removal, debris cleanup, and rough grading.
For buyers who have purchased a raw or semi-improved parcel and need to prepare it for construction, land clearing is typically the first trade on site. Getting the land cleared gives your builder, surveyor, and excavator a clean canvas to work from.

Clear before you survey
Heavy brush and dense vegetation can make it difficult for a surveyor to find and set property corners accurately. Getting the land cleared before your boundary survey saves time and can reduce survey costs on heavily overgrown parcels.
Sequence Matters
Where land clearing fits in the process
1
Close on the parcel
You own the land. Now the work begins.
2
Land clearing
Clear brush, trees, and debris. Rough grade for access. This is where AlpenCo comes in — before any other trade can effectively work the site.
3
Survey and staking
With the land clear, your surveyor can accurately set boundary corners and foundation stakes. The excavator needs these before digging.
4
Excavation and site prep
Access roads, foundation work, retaining walls. Follows the survey staking.
5
Builder on site
With clearing, survey, and rough excavation complete, your builder has what they need to start vertical construction.
Need a surveyor or excavator too?
See the surveyors page for Element Land Surveying, Alliance Engineering, and Atwell — and the excavation page for Wild West Excavation. Coordinating all three trades early avoids sequencing delays.
