What Our Clients Say
“Had a nightmare with a ‘mulching company’ that left my 2-acre lot unusable stumps everywhere and debris just ground up. Called John at TripleJR and he didn’t sugar-coat it. Told me exactly what needed fixing and why. His crew got everything out in 4 days and I was ready to start building ahead of schedule.”
Mike TResidential Property Owner
“I’ve worked with TripleJR on 3 commercial developments now. When these guys clear a lot, it’s actually ready to build on. No surprise stumps, no hidden debris that shows up when you start digging foundations. Paying once for quality work beats paying twice for fixes every time.”
Thomas GCommercial Developer
“John’s honesty saved me thousands. Had water issues in my yard and thought I needed major regrading. He came out, took one look, and told me it was actually my neighbor’s leaking septic system. Could’ve charged me for unnecessary work, but instead these boys helped me get the real problem fixed. That kind of integrity is rare these days.”
Donna MHomeowner
“They cleared a big pile of brush from a downed tree and even took down some big hanging broken branches. Fast friendly service at a great price. I highly recommend Triple J.R.”
Robin Garcia--
“Very pleased with the lot clearing he did today, and removing the two bushes in my front yard. The price was reasonable and I’m just happy I got more open space in my backyard, and my house is actually visible from the road for a change. Very happy with their service.”
Jeremy Louallen--
“I am very impressed with John and Triple J.R. Land Services. They completed the clearing on my heavily treed 1 acre lot in a timely manner with very little direction from me. They are very respectful, honest and clean. I plan to use them for my new construction excavating and landscaping as well. Hire these guys and you won’t be disappointed!”
