Who We Are

30 Years in the Field.

One Standard: Done Properly.

Daniel Fitzpatrick has been running clearing operations in Northern Alberta since 1997. Born with a background in arboriculture and built on decades of hands-on machine work, Colby Contracting brings owner-operated accountability to every project.

"When you work with us, you're not getting a middleman. You're getting the guy who drones the site, crunches the numbers, and puts iron to ground."

What We Do

Three Core Services.

Zero Subcontractors.

Land Clearing

From five hectares to full pipeline corridors. We assess the site, drone the area, and deliver a precise bid. Lump sum or time and materials, your call.

Mulching

On-site processing that eliminates disposal costs and meets environmental standards. Clean, efficient, and ready for your next phase.

Log Haul

We cut to mill-ready lengths and haul it out. Coordinated logistics so your site stays moving without bottlenecks.

How It Works

From Call to Cleared Ground in Three Steps

1

You Call for a Bid

Tell us the scope. Lump sum or time and materials, we handle both. We respond fast.

2

We Walk and Drone the Site

No guesswork. We scout it ourselves, fly it if needed, and build a number you can put in front of your project manager.

3

We Show Up and Deliver

Owner on site. Equipment ready. Job done to spec.
