Land clearing & tree removal in Corrales
Corrales is acreage, horses, cottonwoods and irrigation ditches. Clearing here means knowing what to keep, and working carefully around the water.
Clearing that respects the village
Corrales stretches along the west side of the Rio Grande, with irrigated fields and pastures near the river and sandier ground climbing west toward Rio Rancho. Most of our work here is on larger residential properties: pastures gone to weeds, paddocks that need cleaning up, and tree rows taken over by Siberian elm and Russian olive.
The big cottonwoods are part of what makes Corrales Corrales, so we don’t treat every tree as something to remove. We agree on what stays during the walk-through, and we work around root zones, fences and irrigation.
Horse properties have their own needs: a level arena with good drainage, paddocks that dry out after a storm, and access wide enough for a trailer. We handle all of that grading.

Working in the Village of Corrales
- Village rules. Corrales has its own rules and permits, separate from Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. Check with the village before larger projects.
- Irrigation ditches. Many properties border acequias and laterals managed by the Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District (MRGCD). Work in or next to a ditch or its easement typically needs their permission, and we won’t disturb a ditch without it.
- Soft ground. Land near the bosque or freshly irrigated fields can be soft. We schedule heavy equipment for when the ground is firm so we don’t rut your property.
- Utilities. We request a New Mexico 811 locate before we dig.
Rules change and vary by property. We help you check what applies; we don’t give legal advice or guarantee permit decisions.

Corrales questions
Can you remove invasive trees without hurting my cottonwoods?
Yes. We mark which trees stay, keep equipment off root zones where we can, and take invasive trees down in sections when they’re close to ones you want to keep.
Do you build horse arenas?
We clear and grade the arena site, shape it to drain, and compact the base. Footing material can be brought in as part of the job.
My property borders a ditch. Can you clear along it?
We can clear your side up to the ditch easement. Work in the ditch itself or on its banks needs approval from the ditch’s owner, usually MRGCD.
