Texas contractor guide

Land clearing & grading

Good site work protects everything built after it. Define access, limits, drainage, material handling, and finish expectations before equipment arrives.

Before you request bids

Prepare your project

  • Mark property lines, easements, utilities, protected areas, and the exact work boundary.
  • Separate clearing, grubbing, hauling, burning, mulching, earthwork, and imported material costs.
  • Confirm drainage direction, compaction expectations, and pad or driveway elevations.
  • Ask how weather delays, hidden debris, rock, and unsuitable soil will be handled.
