Lot & Land Clearing in Orleans, Ottawa
Clear lots for builds, expansions, and renewals, tree by tree.
When you are preparing a lot for a new build, an addition, a pool, or a full landscape renewal, professional lot clearing is the first step. Orleans Tree Care clears trees, brush, and stumps across Orleans and east-end Ottawa, leaving a clean, graded-ready site. We work with homeowners, builders, and developers to clear only what is needed, preserving mature trees worth keeping and removing everything in the way of your plans.
Why it matters
Selective clearing that respects the trees worth keeping
A clearing project does not have to mean stripping a lot bare. We mark the trees you want to preserve and clear carefully around them, protecting root zones from heavy equipment. For new construction in growing areas like Avalon and Cardinal Creek, this selective approach preserves the mature canopy that gives a property its character and value. We handle the full sequence, tree felling, brush mowing, stump grinding, and debris chipping, so your site is ready for the next trade without delays.
How it works

We walk the lot with you, mark trees for removal and preservation, and produce a clear scope and quote.
