Land Clearing in Philadelphia: local context
Philadelphia is a rowhouse city with a large pre-war housing stock, most of it with basements, and winters that bring repeated freezing and thawing.
Land clearing around Philadelphia is mostly lot preparation, fence-line and driveway clearing, and reclaiming overgrown acreage on the edges of the metro.
Methods range from forestry mulching and brush cutting to dozer clearing and stump grinding. Around Philadelphia, ask contractors about tree-protection ordinances in many cities and erosion-control rules on disturbed ground, who handles permits, and what happens to the debris.
Licensing and permit rules differ by state and city. Check with Pennsylvania licensing authorities and the local building or permitting office for what applies to your project.
Questions to ask before you hire
- What clearing method will you use, and why?
- What happens to debris and stumps?
- Who handles permits, tree ordinances and erosion control?
- Is the price per acre, per day or fixed?
- Can I see proof of insurance?
