Brush clearing takes overgrowth off open ground, like a lot or an old pasture. Underbrush clearing opens up wooded ground under the bigger trees. Both take out the brush and small trees that keep you off your own land.
Our skid steer carries a mulching head that grinds brush and small trees where they stand. In the woods we run a zero tail swing excavator. Its back end stays within the width of its tracks when it swings, so it can work close to trees.
Longer jobs can bring in a midsize excavator of about 40,000 pounds. We also run a finishing dozer for ground that needs grading once the clearing is done.
Where it fits, we mulch the brush in place with the mulching head. The mulch stays on the ground as a layer over the soil. It is the same forestry mulching we do on trails and around ponds.
Mulching in place also lines up with Texas burning rules around Katy. In Fort Bend and Harris Counties, the state allows burning land-clearing brush only when no practical alternative exists. Its outdoor burning guide lists mulching among those alternatives.
When brush removal means material has to leave the site, we load it onto trucks. The trucking is arranged for the job, and the written quote shows where the brush goes.
Katy sits on the Texas coastal prairie. The extension service names pastures among the places Chinese tallow becomes a problem there. Pasture clearing opens that ground back up for cattle. Where brush has grown into the wire, fence line clearing gives the fence a clean lane.
Lot clearing gets a build site ready for a future house. Homeowners in neighborhoods bring us in to take back an overgrown backyard. Inside Katy city limits, the city code requires owners to keep a lot clear of brush. It counts uncared-for trees and shrubs under 7 feet as brush.
We also clear land before it goes up for sale, and we open areas so owners can see wildlife. Our service area centers on Katy, Texas and runs north to Hempstead and south to Sargent. Check the towns we serve to see if your land is in range.
