What is land clearing and grubbing, let's take a look

Land clearing and grubbing are required by property owners in Halifax (and Halifax area), Dartmouth, Bedford and other areas of Nova Scotia when preparing a site for construction. In clearing a construction site, you may face issues such as demolishing an existing structure, to clearing trees off land, and the removal of stumps. Once this work is completed, then you still have to deal with the removal of logs, brush and debris, and the removal of roots that remain in the soil. This type of work can be quite onerous and labour intensive, and the work needs to be done safely by an experienced clearing and grubbing contractor.
