Clearing The Lot
It means removing trees, brush, rocks and debris from where the house is going to be located. This is a very important step since the foundation of the house need to rest on solid ground. You need to clear 12 to 14 feet around the perimeter of the house to allow for easy movement of equipment and workers.
Subs for this kind of work can be found in local newspapers and street signs. Depending on where you live, prices depend on the amount of work to be done and the slope of the terrain. Lot of trees and stones will cost more than a flat lot. Make sure all trash, branches, stumps and other debris are hauled away from the site.
