After over a decade in the home care industry, sisters Nicole and Cindy Watson noticed a troubling pattern: large agencies were growing, but the quality of care was declining. Families were being treated likeasdasdasd case numbers, and caregivers rotated so frequently that trust became impossible. Determined to change that, they founded Love From The Heart—a fully independent, Ontario-based agency where every decision is made with compassion, dignity, and accountability in mind. Today, their hands-on leadership ensures that each care plan honors the client’s autonomy, well-being, and desire to age in place with grace.

Full-Service Land Grading and Preparation
Getting a site ready for construction involves far more than clearing a few trees. Alpine's approach to land grading and preparation is methodical and thorough. We assess the existing terrain, remove brush and debris, establish proper grade, and install silt fencing to meet local county permit requirements. Every step is handled with heavy machinery and experienced operators who understand how soil behaves in the Pacific Northwest. The result is a stable, level, and permit-ready surface that sets your project up for long-term structural integrity from day one.
What We Handle
Property Site Prep Services Built for Every Scale
Our property site prep capabilities cover the full range of pre-construction needs. Land clearing removes overgrown vegetation, stumps, and debris that would otherwise interfere with grading or foundation work. Brush removal is handled efficiently so that no material is left to create drainage or erosion problems later. We install county-compliant silt fences to control soil runoff and protect natural waterways during active work, keeping your project aligned with local environmental regulations. For sites with drainage challenges, we integrate precision grading and French drain solutions as part of the preparation process, addressing hydrological issues before they become structural ones.

Site Prep Questions Answered
Frequently Asked Questions About Site Preparation

  • What does site preparation typically include before construction begins?

    Site preparation generally covers land clearing, brush and debris removal, soil grading, and drainage planning. At Alpine, it also includes the installation of county-compliant silt fencing to control soil runoff and protect local waterways during active work. For sites with existing drainage problems, French drain solutions and precision grading can be incorporated into the preparation phase. The goal is to deliver a stable, level, and permit-ready surface before any structural work begins.

  • Why is silt fence installation required during site preparation in Kitsap County?

    Kitsap County, like most jurisdictions in Washington State, requires erosion and sediment control measures during land disturbance activities. Silt fences are a standard part of meeting those permit requirements. They slow and filter runoff, preventing soil from reaching natural waterways and storm drains. As a licensed General Contractor, Alpine installs silt fencing that meets county environmental regulations, helping property developers and homeowners avoid permit violations and fines during the construction process.

  • Can Alpine handle both the clearing and grading phases on the same project?

    Yes. Alpine manages the full sequence of site preparation work under one contract, including land clearing, brush removal, and precision grading. Because we operate as a licensed General Contractor with our own heavy machinery and experienced operators, there is no need to coordinate separate subcontractors for different phases. This keeps the project timeline tighter and ensures that grading decisions are informed by the same team that cleared the land, producing a more consistent and accurate finished grade.

  • Does Alpine work on both residential lots and larger commercial development sites?

    Alpine provides site preparation services for both residential homeowners and commercial property developers throughout Kitsap County. Residential projects often involve preparing a lot for an outbuilding, driveway, or landscaping installation. Commercial and development projects typically require more extensive land clearing, grading, and silt control work to meet pre-construction permit requirements. Both types of projects benefit from Alpine's General Contractor credentials and experience with county-level regulatory compliance.

  • Is site preparation work covered by a workmanship warranty?

    All projects completed by Alpine Excavation & Landscaping are backed by a 1-year labor and workmanship warranty. This applies to site preparation work as well as the company's other services. The warranty reflects Alpine's commitment to quality and provides clients with assurance that any workmanship issues identified within that period will be addressed. Free project estimates are available for all prospective clients before any work begins.

  • What types of drainage issues can be addressed during the site prep phase?

    Standing water, poor surface drainage, and soil runoff on sloped terrain are common problems that can be resolved during site preparation. Alpine uses precision grading to redirect water flow away from structures and low-lying areas. For more persistent drainage problems, French drain installations can be incorporated into the preparation scope. Addressing these issues before construction begins is significantly more cost-effective than retrofitting drainage solutions after structures are in place.
