What Erath property owners want to know about lot clearing — answered by our arborists.
Lot clearing in Erath is typically priced per acre, ranging from $1,500 to $6,000 per acre depending on tree density, terrain, access, and what is included (mulching on-site versus chipping and hauling, stump grinding versus leaving stumps). B. Haney and Sons Arborists surveys each lot before quoting and provides detailed per-acre pricing in writing.
Permit requirements in Erath for lot clearing depend on the size of the area, the trees being removed (some species are protected), the proximity to wetlands or sensitive habitat, and your zoning. Many Louisiana jurisdictions require erosion-control plans for clearing over a certain size. B. Haney and Sons Arborists helps Erath clients navigate permitting before any equipment moves.
Per your scope. B. Haney and Sons Arborists can grind stumps as part of Erath lot clearing, fully extract stumps for construction footprints, or leave stumps in place for situations where they will be left to decompose naturally. Pricing varies significantly by approach — full stump removal is the most expensive option, leaving stumps the least expensive.
Heavy equipment can compact soil if used carelessly in Erath, especially on saturated ground. B. Haney and Sons Arborists crews adapt equipment selection to soil conditions — lighter equipment on soft ground, larger machines only when soil supports them. We also avoid working through wet weeks when conditions favor compaction. Soil health is part of our scope.

"Stump removal — full extraction, not just grinding — for new construction footprint. Crew brought the right equipment, removed two large stumps with full root balls, back-filled, and left the area graded for the foundation work. Clean job."
"I have been using B. Haney for our property for years. They prune our maples every other winter and the trees have never looked healthier. There is something to be said for hiring an arborist company that has been doing this since 1940 — the experience shows in every cut."
"Good quality tree work. Pruning was done well and the trees look great. Office communication was a little slow at the start, but once the crew was on-site everything went smoothly. Reasonable pricing too."
