Kerhonkson is a hamlet in the Town of Wawarsing, located at the western foothills of the Shawangunk Ridge. It's one of the more rural areas of Ulster County, with significant amounts of wooded acreage, former agricultural land, and properties that see active development pressure as buyers seek more land for their money. Our team regularly clears properties throughout the Kerhonkson area.

Full site preparation for new builds — grading, leveling, and debris hauling included.
Kerhonkson properties sit at the base of the Shawangunk Ridge, meaning rocky, thin soils are common on hillside parcels, while valley-floor properties near the Rondout Creek have deeper, more workable soils. The terrain transition can be abrupt, and properties that appear workable from the road can reveal significant ledge and boulders once clearing begins.
We size our equipment and approach to match your specific property. No one-size-fits-all solutions — we assess your site first, then recommend the right method and machinery.
Land clearing done incorrectly causes soil erosion, drainage failures, and construction delays. A licensed, insured professional who knows your area's terrain, permit requirements, and soil conditions protects your investment. Our team brings the right experience and equipment to every Kerhonkson job.

It depends on proximity to wetlands, disturbance size, and local town rules. Projects over one acre require a SWPPP. We advise on permits during your free estimate. Read the permits guide →
