Start to finish

How our land clearing & demolition services work — start to finish

5 steps, and you only make the first call. Ronald handles the rest.

  1. Free on-site estimate

    Ronald visits your property in person to walk the land or structure, listen to what you want, and provide a clear, no-obligation estimate.

  2. Planning & permits

    Before any equipment moves in, R&G Land Clearing handles the necessary permits and coordinates any utility disconnects so the job starts safely and legally.

  3. Mobilization

    Equipment — including Ronald’s Kubota excavator and, for larger jobs, a trusted partner operator with additional machinery — is brought on-site and staged for work.

  4. Execution

    The demolition, land clearing, or forestry mulching work is carried out to the standard R&G is known for — going the extra mile so the result matches the vision discussed up front.

  5. Cleanup & walk-through

  • Mr. G. helped me clear and clean up some property that I needed to sell as soon as possible. He knew my situation and was kind enough to fit me in his schedule. He stayed until I was satisfied that I could put my property on the market. I found his prices to be very competitive and I was impressed by his concern that I was totally satisfied with his work. I would definitely use his services again with no worries.

  • Great job with a difficult project. The back yard was held hostage by a sinking pool and non-functional hot tub. It was overgrown and the deck and fence were rotting. The crew came in and did all the clean up removed the fence, deck and hot tub. Now the back yard is ready for family fun. They got it completed in less than a week. Again, great job!

  • Ronnie and Glenda came down to Illinois to do a land clearing job & demolition job for me also they cleared a couple acres of invasive honey suckle brush. Ronnie was meticulous and conscience about everything. He was a superior equipment operator. I really liked that he made sure I was happy with the job.

Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

Didn't find your question? Call or text Ronald at (706) 483-3851, or see all FAQs.

How much does demolition cost?

Every demolition job is different, and pricing depends on the size and type of structure, site access, and how much cleanup and hauling is involved. Factors that affect residential demolition costs include structure size, site accessibility, debris removal requirements, and overall project scope. The best way to get an accurate number is a free, in-person estimate — Ronald will walk the property and give you a clear price before any work begins.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes — every estimate from R&G Land Clearing is completely free with no obligation. Ronald visits the site in person, discusses exactly what you want done, and provides a straightforward price before you commit to anything. This applies to both demolition and land clearing projects, no matter the size.

How much does land clearing or forestry mulching cost?

Land clearing and forestry mulching pricing depends on the acreage, terrain, vegetation density, whether stump removal is needed, site accessibility, and overall project scope. Smaller projects like fence line or pond mowing cost less than full property clearing. The best way to get an accurate price for your property is a free on-site estimate — Ronald will assess your specific land and provide a clear quote.

Do you handle permits and utility disconnects before demolition?

Yes. Before any demolition begins, R&G Land Clearing handles the necessary permitting and coordinates safe utility disconnects, so you don’t have to navigate that paperwork yourself. This is built into the demolition process on every project, not offered as an extra add-on.

What's the difference between land clearing and forestry mulching?

Land clearing typically means removing trees, brush, and vegetation entirely to prepare a property for construction or a new use. Forestry mulching is a lower-impact option that grinds brush and small trees into mulch right on-site, leaving the roots in place to help prevent erosion. R&G Land Clearing offers both, and Ronald can help you decide which approach fits your property and goals.

Do you work on commercial or municipal properties?

Right now, R&G Land Clearing focuses on residential demolition and land clearing for homeowners and private landowners throughout Southeast Tennessee and North Georgia. Commercial and municipal jobs are considered on a case-by-case basis, so reach out to discuss your project.

Let's take a look at your property.
