Question 1

How do I decide between brush clearing and full land clearing?

Accepted Answer

Start with the result you want. Brush clearing focuses on overgrowth, while land clearing can open a larger work area and include selected trees. We can discuss the scope after hearing how you plan to use the property.

Question 2

What is a good first step for wildfire mitigation?

Accepted Answer

Review the property around structures and learn the current Colorado State Forest Service guidance for defensible space. The right treatment depends on slope, vegetation, building features, and local rules; discuss these details before setting a clearing scope.

Question 3

Can exterior concrete be removed before a new driveway is installed?

Accepted Answer

Driveway demolition and concrete removal are among the services offered. Tell us about the existing surface, access, and nearby structures, then confirm the next contractor's needs before demolition is planned.

Question 4

Does Mountain West work on residential and commercial sites?

Accepted Answer

Residential and commercial land clearing are both listed services. Exterior demolition is described as residential and light demolition. Share the project type so the scope can be confirmed.

Question 5

Where can I check local site and demolition requirements?

Accepted Answer

The responsible city or county office depends on the property address and work type. Montrose, Ouray, Delta, and San Miguel counties may have different rules. Verify current permit requirements with the relevant jurisdiction.
