Land Clearing & Grubbing in Eastern North Carolina

RELIABLE LAND CLEARING & GRUBBING

We clear lots the right way—trees, brush, roots, and stumps—so your site is truly build-ready. From tight infill lots to multi-acre tracts, our crew handles access, protection of save-trees, and compliance with NC DEQ. We can manage permits, coordinate 811 locates, and handle debris by haul-off or supervised burn where allowed. With Nelson Coastal, your pad starts clean, safe, and on schedule.

EFFICIENT DEBRIS MANAGEMENT & ROUGH GRADING

When the clearing’s done, we don’t leave a mess. We grub and root-rake, separate topsoil, and rough grade for positive drainage. Need a construction entrance or temporary access road? We’ll install it and keep inspectors happy with proper erosion controls.

Nelson Coastal completes 150+ residential and small commercial projects each year across coastal NC. As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned business, we run tight ops—clear communication, fair pricing, and jobsite discipline. Expect professional crews, modern equipment, and results you can build on.
