About

A land contractor for Nashville and the towns around it

Sanctuary Land Services does the ground work that comes before everything else: clearing it, taking down what is on it, digging it, shaping it and getting the water off it.

One outfit from the first cut to the final grade

Land work usually gets split up. One company takes the trees, another the old garage, a third digs the footings, and someone else comes back to fix the drainage nobody planned for. We do all twelve pieces of it, so the clearing is done knowing the lot will be graded, and the grading is done knowing where the drain will run.

That is the reason the services on this site are numbered. They are the order the work happens in, and a job can start at any line.

Who calls us

Homeowners, mostly with something they can see from the kitchen window: water that will not drain, a lot that has gone wild, a tree that worries them. Builders and developers who need lots ready on schedule. Commercial owners with a site to clear, a building to take down or a pad to cut.

Jobs run from a single back yard to a full development, homes and commercial sites both.

How a job starts

With a free, no-obligation estimate. You tell us where the land is and what you want it ready for; we look at it, write up the work and give you the schedule before anything starts. If the job is large enough to need a stormwater permit or sits in a floodplain, that comes up at the estimate, not after the machine is on site.

Where we work

We are based in Nashville and work across 20 towns around it, from Gallatin and Hendersonville in Sumner County to Columbia in Maury County and Murfreesboro in Rutherford. Every town is listed with the office that issues grading permits there.

Answers

About working with us

Is Sanctuary Land Services a land clearing company or an excavation company?

Both, and more. We clear land and sites, take down trees and structures, excavate, trench for utilities, grade, install drainage, control erosion, build retaining walls and prepare sites for building, which covers the ground work from raw land to a finished pad.

Where is Sanctuary Land Services based?

Nashville, Tennessee. We are a service-area business: we come to the land, across Nashville and twenty towns around it in six counties, rather than working from a storefront customers visit.

Do you take small jobs?

Yes. One tree, one wet corner of a yard or one old shed is a real job to us. Small residential work and large commercial sites both get a free estimate and a schedule before anything starts.
