Services

Plot Clearing

Overgrown or bush-covered stands cleared to bare earth – or cleared enough to walk, build or plant. Includes removal of brush, invasive growth and unwanted vegetation.

Tree Felling & Removal

Safe, careful tree removal – big or small, leaning or storm-damaged. We assess, fell, and clean up completely.

Stump Removal

Grinding or digging out stumps so the ground is usable again. No ugly leftovers.

Garden Maintenance

Hedge trimming, palm trimming, weeding, general tidy-ups. Regular or one-off.

Land Prep

Clearing and levelling for building, planting, fencing or fire breaks.

Wood Recycling

We turn cleared wood into dried braai wood – better than burning it in a pile. Ask about loads and delivery.

OSCA Permits — Outeniqua Sensitive Coastal Area

Many Garden Route properties sit inside the Outeniqua Sensitive Coastal Area (OSCA) — and that changes what you can clear and when. Clearing vegetation, disturbing soil or building in the coastal zone often needs a permit first.

We work with you (and your environmental assessor) to make sure the clearing is compliant — no fines, no stop-work orders, no surprises.

• Clearing within the OSCA coastal zone — done right
• Documentation support for permit applications
• Referral to Cape Veg Surveys for the vegetation assessment
• Compliant, careful land clearing on the Garden Route

ECO — Environmental Control Officer for building sites

Building near the coast or in sensitive areas usually comes with environmental conditions on your approval. We work alongside an independent Environmental Control Officer (ECO) so your clearing and construction stay compliant — no fines, no stop-work orders.

• ECO site monitoring during clearing and construction
• Condition-of-approval and EMPr compliance checks
• Documentation and reporting for authorities
• Seamless handover from plot clearing to build phase

Need the ECO appointment? Cape Veg Surveys provides ECO services — we’ll coordinate so it’s one smooth process.
