Your neighbours in the valley
Courtenay sits at the heart of the Comox Valley, where treed acreage, ALR farmland, and rural lots stretch from the Puntledge River up toward Merville and Black Creek. Whether you're prepping a building site off Headquarters Road, reclaiming an overgrown hobby farm, or opening up a wooded parcel for pasture, Timberline connects you with experienced local clearing operators who know Comox Valley land — and how to leave it ready for what's next.
From single overgrown lots to multi-acre parcels — one crew, one quote, no surprises.
Full clearing and prep so your builder can start on a clean, workable site.
We grind brush and small trees in place — no burn piles, no haul-away, instant ground cover.
Blackberry, broom, salal, and alder regrowth cleared back to usable land.
Selective tree removal and stump grinding as part of the same job.
Every Comox Valley property has its own reason. These are the jobs we see most around town.
New homes and shops going up from Crown Isle to Merville — we clear and grade-ready the footprint and driveway line.
Comox Valley farmland grows back fast. We push back alder and brush so ALR parcels earn their keep again.
Dry summers are the new normal. Thinning and fuel removal around structures buys real protection.
Open up sightlines to the glacier or the estuary, and turn scrub into lawn, garden, or parking.
Local knowledge
Courtenay parcels are dominated by Douglas fir and western red cedar, with big-leaf maple, red alder, and grand fir mixed through second-growth lots. We handle dense fir stands and alder regrowth alike — mulched in place or removed, your call.
The valley runs from flat farmland along the Tsolum and Puntledge to treed benchland rising toward the Beaufort Range. Wet winter ground is a real factor here — we plan machine access and timing so your soil isn’t left rutted.
Rules differ between the City of Courtenay and the Comox Valley Regional District: ALR parcels, riparian setbacks near the Puntledge, Tsolum, and Courtenay rivers, and development-permit areas all come into play. We’ll flag what applies to your property before work starts.
Four steps from overgrown to ready — no deposits, no surprises on the invoice.
We walk the property with you, talk through options, and give a firm number.
We book a window that suits you — and the ground conditions.
Right-sized machines for your lot, operated by people who do this every day.
Mulched, cleaned, and ready for the excavator, the seed drill, or the housewarming.
Tell us about the job and we'll come take a look — no cost, no pressure, just an honest quote from someone local.

We serve Courtenay and the wider Comox Valley — if you’re on acreage anywhere in the valley, we can likely get a machine to it.

It depends on tree density, terrain, and access — most acreage jobs in the valley land somewhere between $2,000 and $6,000 per acre. Heavy fir stands cost more than alder and brush. The free on-site quote gives you a firm number, not a range.
A brushy half-acre is often a one-day job; a treed multi-acre parcel can run several days. We'll give you a timeline with the quote.
Either. Forestry mulching grinds everything into ground cover on the spot — usually the cheaper option. If you want it gone, we chip and haul instead.
Sometimes. The City of Courtenay and the CVRD have different rules — ALR land, riparian setbacks near the Puntledge, Tsolum, and Courtenay rivers, and development-permit areas can all require sign-off. We’ll tell you what applies to your parcel before any work starts.
Late summer through fall, when valley ground is driest and machines leave the least impact. Winter work is possible on well-drained lots — we’ll assess that at the quote.
