Your pro forma doesn't have room for a failed drainage review or a heritage tree violation. You need one partner who scans the lot, pulls the demo, clears to grade, and hands off foundation-ready — with documentation the city actually trusts. We scan before we dig. We prove what we move.
Book a Free Site ScanThe city rejected your grading plan because the grade doesn't match the drainage study. Your sub said it was "close enough." Now you're re-engineering, re-submitting, and bleeding holding costs while the review cycles again. A tape measure and a good attitude aren't verification.
Someone nicked the critical root zone. Maybe they didn't know it was there. Maybe they didn't care. Either way, you're looking at a mitigation payment, a stop-work order, and a city arborist who just became the most important person in your project. CRZ violations don't get second chances.
Demo crew left rebar in the ground. Clearing crew didn't know about the drainage easement. Grading crew showed up before demo was finished. Every hand-off is a risk, and every risk hits your pro forma. You need one partner who owns the entire sequence from scan to foundation-ready handoff.
From existing structure to foundation-ready pad — this is the sequence. One crew owns every phase, one RTK scan verifies every milestone, and the city gets documentation it can't argue with.

Most site prep crews show up and start swinging. We show up with a Mavic 3 Enterprise RTK drone that maps every tree, slope, utility mark, and drainage line on your lot to ±0.5cm accuracy. Heritage trees get flagged with CRZ boundaries. Existing structures get measured. You see the full site model — and approve the work plan — before a single piece of concrete moves.
Stop coordinating three subs who don't talk to each other. ClearGround bundles demolition, land clearing, excavation, and grading into a single mobilization — one crew, one scan, one invoice. The tight-lot expertise and RTK verification that runs through every phase is what makes the bundle work.
