Land Clearing in Hampstead, NC
The owners in Hampstead needed room for an additional barn, but unwanted trees, underbrush and stumps filled the footprint. We brought in our tracked excavator with a bucket and hydraulic thumb, plus a stump grinder, to handle the agreed clearing. We removed the unwanted growth, ground the specified stumps and hauled away the debris. The open area gave the owners access for the next preparation stage, and they were pleased with the finished work.

Our Land Clearing Process and Equipment
Our process starts by marking the clearing area and trees you want to keep. We use tracked excavators with buckets and hydraulic thumbs to handle trunks, specified stumps and loading. We separate debris with root-rake or loader work, then complete the hauling and ground finish included in your quote.
Pines, Hardwood Regrowth and Clearing Limits
Loblolly pine, sweetgum and brush can fill neglected Cape Fear lots. Broad live-oak crowns and mature pines need a removal plan that protects nearby structures and the trees you keep. We mark the footprint, check the actual jurisdiction and separate upland clearing from wetland or coastal-area work.
Land Clearing Questions, Clear Answers.
Do I need approval to clear land in Wilmington?+
We first check the actual property jurisdiction, trees and proposed disturbance. Wilmington tree-removal rules can apply to nonresidential lots, larger residential lots, protected buffers and historic districts. Historic-district work may also need a Certificate of Appropriateness. County land-disturbance review and coastal-area approvals are separate.
When might a land-disturbance permit apply?+
New Hanover County generally requires review for disturbance over one acre, additional work on a previously permitted site, or smaller work that forms part of a larger development. County Engineering also reviews qualifying projects inside Wilmington. We confirm the specific scope and jurisdiction.
Is debris removal included?+
Mulch and bush-hog cuttings normally stay on-site. For clearing or tree removal, we specify what will be hauled, processed or left in agreed locations. We list stump grinding and root work separately so you know what remains.
