We fly your property, map every fuel load zone to survey-grade accuracy, clear what the law requires, and produce the RTK-verified documentation your insurance carrier and the state accept directly. FFSL provides free lot assessments that identify the problem. ClearGround fixes it and proves it was fixed.

WE'RE BUILDING OUR PORTFOLIO. YOUR FIRST SCAN IS ON US.

"WE LET THE DATA SPEAK FIRST." We're selectively offering complimentary RTK site scans to qualifying projects in Austin and Salt Lake City. No obligation. You get a geo-referenced orthophoto and elevation map of your site. We get to show you what we do. If you want to work together after that, we'll talk.
What's behind the work
Real iron. Real data.
Real accountability.

What we stand on
Four commitments
Zero exceptions.
01 — Verifiable Precision
We don't guess.
We scan and prove.
RTK-verified drone data before and after. Zero disputed yardage.

Every cubic yard billed is a cubic yard documented. Pre- and post-excavation RTK drone surveys establish an irrefutable record of what was moved. Disputes become structurally impossible because the data exists before anyone asks for it.

± 0.5cm Accuracy · Pre/Post RTK Surveys · Irrefutable Record
02 — Radical Transparency
You see what
we see.
3D Digital Twin delivered every Friday on every active project.

No surprises on billing day because you've been watching the work happen in real time. The 3D model is both a client service and a documentation record for any future disputes or change orders. Friday deliveries. No exceptions.

Weekly Friday Deliveries · Client-Accessible 3D Model · DroneDeploy
03 — Zero-Waste Site Philosophy
Nothing leaves the site
that doesn't have to.
Mulch in place. Mill rock on-site as aggregate, road base, drainage fill.

Vegetation mulched in place returns nutrients to soil and eliminates burn permits, burn-ban risk, haul costs, and tipping fees. Rock is milled on-site and repurposed as drainage aggregate, road base, driveway sub-base, and foundation fill. What most contractors haul away, we turn into a line item that saves you money.

Zero Burn Permits · Zero Haul-Off · On-Site Material Recycling
04 — CORE VALUE
Surgical.
SITE WORK.
Cut/fill volumes verified. Heritage Tree Ordinance.

Not every job should shake the neighborhood. Clear Ground brings surgical precision to all three disciplines — selective demo that protects adjacent foundations, excavation cut to exact grade with RTK verification, and land clearing that removes what needs to go while preserving what doesn’t. Operating businesses stay open. Legacy trees stay standing.

how we are different
nothing fancy
boring & consistent.
Don’t tolerate the "silent contractor" causing ripple-effect setbacks for plumbers, electricians, and inspectors who are already in short supply.

WE SHOW UP. PERIOD.

SCHEDULE CERTAINTY IN A MARKET DEFINED BY DELAYS.

The biggest frustration in the Austin trades right now is responsiveness. When you hire Clear Ground, you get a partner committed to your timeline. We communicate clearly, bid accurately, and show up when we say we will. No ghosting, no excuses.

Don’t tolerate "smash and grab" methods that leave sites cluttered with debris or cause vibration damage to adjacent properties.

POWER AFTER, SURGICAL PRECISION.

TECHNICAL SITE PREP FOR HIGH-DENSITY URBAN INFILL.

Whether it’s navigating a tight urban demolition next to an occupied structure or clearing acres of tough Hill Country cedar, we have the right equipment and the right operators. We don't just "smash and grab." We execute site work with engineered precision, ensuring your grade is level and your site is clean.

Don’t tolerate general contractors without specialized equipment yielding massive change orders and budget overruns during excavation.

TEXAS TERRAIN EXPERTISE

DEFEATING LIMESTONE AND CLAY BEFORE THEY BREAK YOUR BUDGET.

Digging in Central Texas isn't like digging anywhere else. From limestone ledges to expansive clay, we know what’s under the surface here. We anticipate challenges before they become expensive change orders, keeping your budget on track.

Don’t tolerate the administrative burden of tracking weights, safety records (EMR), aka a legal and paperwork nightmare.

SAFETY & COMPLIANCE FIRST

TURNKEY MANAGEMENT OF AUSTIN’S RECYCLING AND EHS MANDATES.

A messy site is a dangerous site. We maintain rigorous safety standards to protect our crew, your property, and your liability. We handle the haul-off responsibly, ensuring compliance with local environmental regulations so you can focus on the build.
