Do you have storm damage that needs to be cleaned up? Or perhaps you’re a builder with several lots that needs clearing before you can get started on new construction. When choosing a company for your lot clearing needs, it's important to choose one with experience and knowledge and that they have all the necessary equipment and tools needed for the job at hand. T & J Tree Experts LLC has all of this and more.
We provide a helping hand. Your time is valuable and most residents are limited to weekends for yard work. If you have overgrown brush or trees in the way, let us do the heavy work and get it done in no time! For your brush clearing, we bring our chipper and can leave the mulch behind if you like. It’s perfect for adding nutrients back to your soil. When cleaning up storm damage, the situation becomes more hazardous and our team safely cleans up fallen trees and debris from recent storms. This includes tree and limb removal from buildings and structures. Please don’t try to remove storm debris by yourself.
For construction projects, usually yes. Memphis and Shelby County review tree removal and land disturbance tied to development, and suburbs like Collierville and Germantown have their own grading and tree rules. If the work disturbs an acre or more, you’ll likely also need a stormwater permit from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation.
A small residential lot with brush and a handful of trees can take a day or two to clear. Heavily wooded land can take a week or more, depending on tree size, access, and how much stump work the job needs. Soggy ground after a big Memphis rain can slow heavy equipment, too.
Most jobs remove trees, brush, vines, and stumps so the ground’s ready for grading or building. Crews usually chip the brush and haul off the logs, though some will leave the chips behind as free mulch. Scopes vary from company to company, so ask what the job covers before work starts.
Lot clearing removes what’s growing on the land, such as trees, brush, and stumps. Grading comes next and shapes the soil itself so that water drains away from where the house will sit. Builders often hire a tree crew for the clearing and a site contractor for the grading.
Late fall and winter usually work best. Brush dies back, crews can see what they’re working with, and you’ll avoid disturbing nesting birds in spring and early summer. Keep an eye on the forecast, though, since a long stretch of winter rain can leave the ground too soft for heavy machines.
