About J. Worthington

J. Worthington operates out of Shorter, Alabama, a small community in Macon County located roughly 20 miles east of Montgomery along U.S. Highway 80. Rural and semi-rural properties in this part of central Alabama frequently need more than just tree work, they need the site prep, fencing, and land work that comes before or after trees are removed. J. Worthington's combination of tree services, excavation, and fence installation makes them a strong fit for landowners, rural homeowners, and small farms in the area dealing with multiple property improvement projects at once.

Services & Process

J. Worthington's tree services cover removal of hazardous or cleared trees, stump grinding, and site cleanup following storm damage or land clearing projects. Their excavation capabilities allow them to handle grading, land clearing, and earthmoving that often follows large tree removal jobs, including preparing sites for outbuildings, driveways, or fencing. The fence and gate work rounds out the offering, letting customers go from raw, overgrown land to a cleared, graded, and fenced property without hiring three separate contractors. This kind of bundled capability is especially practical for Macon County properties where acreage is common and projects often involve multiple trades.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can J. Worthington handle a full land clearing project from tree removal through grading and fencing?
That's a core part of what they offer. Combining excavation with tree removal and fence installation means the project flows logically without gaps between contractors. This is especially useful on rural Macon County properties where the scope of land improvement can span several trades.
What type of fencing does J. Worthington install?
While specific product lines vary, providers offering fencing alongside land services in rural Alabama typically handle agricultural fencing like welded wire, barbed wire, and wood post fencing, along with privacy and security fencing for residential properties. Contact them directly to confirm what materials they work with.
How do I prepare for a land clearing and excavation project in Macon County?
Before any clearing begins, it's worth identifying any underground utilities by calling 811, the national call-before-you-dig service. You should also clarify property boundaries, especially on rural parcels, and discuss with your contractor what you want done with the cleared timber and debris.
Is stump grinding necessary after tree removal, or can I just leave the stumps?
Left in place, stumps can attract termites and other wood-boring insects, create mowing obstacles, and make any future construction or fencing difficult. If you're grading or fencing the area after clearing, grinding stumps first makes the excavation process much cleaner.
What's the difference between lot clearing and general tree removal?
Tree removal typically addresses specific trees, one at a time, while lot clearing involves removing all trees, brush, and stumps from a defined area, usually to prepare it for construction, agriculture, or grazing. Lot clearing is heavier work and usually requires excavation equipment in addition to chainsaws and chippers.
Does J. Worthington work on smaller residential jobs, or primarily larger rural properties?
Based on their combination of services, they're well-suited to both, though their equipment and multi-trade capability gives them a particular advantage on larger jobs. If you have a smaller project in the Shorter or Tuskegee area, it's worth calling to see if it fits their schedule.
