Land Clearing
We clear lots and acreage of trees, brush, and stumps across Montgomery County and Middle Tennessee. The ground gets cleaned up so it is ready to build on or put back into pasture.

Demolition takes an old shed or barn off your property and leaves the ground clear. We tear down outbuildings, detached garages, carports and other small structures, and the debris gets loaded out for disposal. It is part of the excavation and land work we do from Woodlawn, just west of Clarksville. We cover Clarksville and Montgomery County and travel to Nashville and Franklin.
Many old buildings sit in brush and trees that grew up around them. When that is the case, land clearing comes first so there is room to work. Then the teardown can start. Estimates are free, so call or text (931) 572-8673.

Our demolition work is sized for the old buildings on home lots and farms. That means sheds, barns, detached garages, carports and other outbuildings. Some are falling in, and some sit right where something new should go.
An excavator with a thumb pulls the building down and picks up the pieces. The debris gets sorted and loaded into a roll-off container as the work goes. Once the building is gone, the ground where it stood gets cleared.
If you need a demolition contractor for something bigger than an outbuilding, call and describe it. We will tell you if it is a fit. For shed demolition and barn removal, the free estimate starts with a look at the building.
Before a building is demolished, the property owner or an agent notifies every utility with a service connection in it. Montgomery County will not issue the demolition permit until each utility gives a release. That release says the utility's meters and connections are removed or sealed and plugged. The county's form lists Clarksville Gas and Water or a utility district, and Clarksville Department of Electricity or CEMC.
Montgomery County needs a building permit whenever someone will demolish any building or structure. Its demolition packet also asks for the state asbestos notification letter. That notice is due to TDEC's Division of Air Pollution Control at least 10 working days before work starts. Inside Clarksville city limits, demolition is its own city permit, applied for through the city's Self-Service Portal.
Tennessee's 811 rules apply to demolition as well as digging. Whoever is doing the demolishing gets a locate ticket from Tennessee 811 first. The notice goes in at least 3 and not more than 10 working days ahead, so buried lines get marked.
Once loaded out, the debris goes to a construction and demolition landfill. Montgomery County's packet says all demolition debris is disposed of by methods TDEC's solid waste division approves. Burning it is out, because Tennessee's list of what not to burn names demolition debris and building material. Improper outdoor burning can lead to fines up to $25,000.
In Woodlawn, Bi-County Solid Waste runs its landfill off Dover Road. The site holds a Class I landfill for household waste and two Class III landfills for construction and demolition. Bi-County charges private individuals $10 a cubic yard for demolition waste, and commercial loads pay the current gate rate.
With the debris gone, the spot is ready for its next use. Some people want open ground back. Others want a new barn or shop in the same spot, and leveling it is site prep and grading work.

We handle the dirt work before a build: building pads, cut and fill, rough and finish grading, and driveway cuts. The ground ends up level where it should be and sloped so water leaves the site.

We dig footers, crawl space and slab perimeters, and basement holes to the line and depth on the plans. A concrete crew forms and pours, and we backfill once the walls are ready.
