Capability Statement

Oakland Land & Tree LLC

Engineering-Driven Excavation, Site Preparation and Land Solutions

About

Company overview

Oakland Land & Tree LLC is a Michigan-based, veteran-owned excavation and site services contractor serving government, commercial, and private-sector clients. We provide excavation, site preparation, land clearing, grading, drainage improvements, stormwater management, forestry mulching, landscape construction, and related property development services.

Our capabilities support projects ranging from small site improvements and drainage corrections to subcontracted civil construction, utility preparation, roadway support, and land-management work. In addition to self-performed field services, Oakland Land & Tree provides project planning, subcontractor coordination, scheduling, site logistics, documentation, and general project management support.

Our approach is grounded in engineering principles. We evaluate site conditions, drainage patterns, grades, constructability, equipment requirements, and long-term performance before beginning work. This allows us to provide practical solutions that are safe, efficient, and built to specification.

Headquartered out of Ortonville, MI, serving Southeast Michigan and pursuing government contracting opportunities statewide.
