Land Clearing & Excavation

Every solid build starts with proper groundwork. Before pouring concrete or framing structures, your property needs a clean, stable foundation. J Plus Contracting delivers dependable land clearing and residential excavation services throughout Lake Cowichan, Duncan, and the Cowichan Valley, tailored to rugged Vancouver Island terrain.

From raw acreage to tight residential lots, we bring the right machinery and site management to clear land responsibly. We handle heavy brush, unwanted trees, stumps, and rocky soil while keeping a close eye on natural drainage paths and property lines to protect your land long-term.

Our land clearing and excavation services include:

- Site Preparation & Lot Clearing: Removing trees, brush, roots, and surface rock to create a clean, level footprint for homes, shops, cabins, or outbuildings.

- Stump Removal & Root Raking: Digging out stubborn stumps and root systems completely to prevent soil settlement and foundation issues later.

- Utility Trenching: Digging precise trenches for electrical conduits, water lines, perimeter drainage, and septic connections.

- Driveways & Access Roads: Roughing in, excavating, and grading stable access paths and driveways with proper gravel bases and water run-off slopes.

- Grading & Drainage Control: Shaping natural contours to divert water away from your building site and prevent pooling during rainy coastal winters.

We begin every job with a site visit to examine soil type, ground grade, and site access. Whether you are clearing an entire building envelope or preparing a simple backyard pad, we work cleanly and safely to keep your project moving forward.
