If you have a land development project in the works in Central Florida, a crucial phase includes land clearing, excavation, grading, earthwork, paving, storm water and utility systems installation. Before construction begins the property needs to be properly prepared for a firm foundation. 

After surveying the site, surface debris and unwanted vegetation are removed by grubbing and clearing the site. Removing all the vegetation, including unwanted trees, is referred to as clearing. Removing the remaining roots in the soil is called grubbing. This also includes removing any debris on the site, as wells as brush and logs. Grinding the stumps and removing them. After this is finished, the site is ready for drain installation and grading. 

The clearing and grubbing phase takes experience and several pieces of heavy machinery. It is not an easy task to complete. A few pieces of equipment that is necessary to perform the task are dump trucks, scrapers, bulldozers, compactors, and many more. Handling such equipment takes a professional with specific skill and knowledge who understands how to account for overhead wires, underground utilities, and erosion control.

Considerable skill, training, and the right equipment is necessary for a foundation that will stand the test of time. 

It All Starts With A Stable Foundation

The foundation is responsible for supporting hundreds of thousands of pounds.  It also needs to stay dry, remain level, and resist changes in the weather, such as our intense heat and torrential downpours. Don’t forget the many tons the foundation itself weighs. Which means the ground must be carefully prepared and excavated to withstand the stress. 

Every Property Is Unique

The excavation process must be carefully planned and executed. Every property is different, they all have unique characteristics that must be examined and taken into consideration. Such as, moisture, water table, soil stability, and quality of the backfill.
