You have land you cannot get to. The camp is a long walk in, the back acres are cut off, or there is no way to bring gear in for work. You need a road or trail. Toms Tree Services offers forest road construction help in Marquette, starting with clearing the way.

When Do You Need Forest Road Construction?

A forest road or access trail helps when you need to reach a camp, hunting land, back acreage, or a work area in your woods.

Our part focuses on the tree work: laying out the route with you, clearing trees and brush, grinding or removing stumps, and preparing the path. We can talk about grading and gravel when we see the job.

Good routes avoid wet spots, steep slopes and big trees you want to keep. Planning saves money and reduces ruts and erosion.

In the U.P., wet spring ground turns poor trails into mud. Heavy lake-effect snow and Lake Superior wind storms drop trees across roads, so wider clearing helps.

Our short summer season makes summer and fall the main time for road work. Frozen ground can also help in some spots.

We help homeowners and property owners in Marquette, Negaunee, Ishpeming, Gwinn and across Marquette County, and will travel farther for the right job.

How the Job Works, Step by Step

It starts with you. Call 906-236-9567 or send the form with your name, phone number and address. Lucas will call you back to set a time to look at your route.

Then we come out and look. We walk the possible route with you and look at trees, wet spots, slopes and rock. We talk about how wide the road should be and what it needs to carry. Then we plan the clearing and prep work.

After that, you get a free estimate. There is no trip fee for the visit and no pressure. You can start with part of the plan or all of it. If you go ahead, we set up the work with you and clean up when we finish.

How Much Does Forest Road Construction Cost?

The cost depends on the length and width of the road, how many trees and stumps are in the way, ground conditions, slopes and wet spots. The gear needed, distance and cleanup also matter.

The estimate is free, and there is no trip fee. When we give you the estimate, we go over what each part of the work covers. That way you can pick what fits your trees and your budget, and change the plan later if your needs change.
