Brush Removal in Bullard, TX

Yaupon, briars, privet and sweetgum scrub cleared off your lot or pasture so you can use it again.

Brush Removal in Bullard

Leave a piece of ground alone for three summers in Smith County and the brush owns it. Yaupon fills in head high, greenbriar ties it together, privet and young sweetgum push up through old pasture, and a lot you could once mow becomes a wall. Brush removal is getting that growth off the land and giving it back to you. Around Tyler I handle it two ways: mulching the brush in place, which is fastest and cheapest and leaves a clean layer of chips, or cutting and hauling it where you want the material gone, such as next to a house or on a finished lawn. I clear brush off overgrown lots in town, off acreage people have just bought in Lindale, Van and Chandler, around ponds and barns on ranchettes near Bullard and Whitehouse, and off pasture edges from Canton to Jacksonville. East Texas brush grows back thick and grows back fast, so I also tell you honestly what it takes to keep it down once it is gone.

Land clearing in Bullard

Bullard straddles the Smith and Cherokee county line on US-69 south of Tyler, and the east shore of Lake Palestine is its back yard. The lake communities at Emerald Bay and Eagle’s Bluff, the acreage along FM 344 running out to the water, and the ranchettes toward Teaselville and Mt. Selman have made Bullard one of the hottest places in East Texas to buy land, and almost all of that land is timber. This is where the Smith County sand starts rolling into the red clay hills of Cherokee County, and the woods get thicker as you go south: loblolly pine, post oak, hickory, sweetgum, and yaupon so dense you lose a dog in it. I clear a lot of lake-area lots here, opening a view and a walk to the water without stripping the shade. I open homesites and drives on acreage off FM 344 and FM 2493, mulch understory on tracts that were bought for the trees, and clear fence lines for people who want a horse or a few head of cattle on the place. Bullard owners tend to want the woods kept, just made usable, and that is exactly what a mulcher does. Per-acre or per-job pricing, set after I walk the property with you.

Common Clearing Scenarios in Bullard

The land clearing jobs I see most around here, and how I handle them.

Lake Palestine lots grown shut to the water

Lots along the east shore and in the gated communities fill in with yaupon and sweetgum until there is no view. I underbrush them selectively, open a corridor to the water and leave the pines and oaks that make the lot worth having.

Clay hills south of town that gully when stripped

Toward the Cherokee County side the ground gets steeper and the red clay slicks and gullies when it is bare-cleared. Mulching holds a chip layer on the slope so a new clearing does not turn into a ditch after the first storm.

Ranchettes that need pasture and fence

People buying ten and twenty acres around Bullard want a few horses or cows on it. I mulch the brush back off old pasture, clear and open the fence lines, and take out the trees in the way of a barn pad.

Brush Removal in Bullard: FAQs

Do you clear lots inside Emerald Bay and Eagle’s Bluff?
Yes, and that kind of lot is where a mulcher earns its keep: selective work, tight property lines, trees that have to stay. I clear the understory and hazard trees and keep the machine where you want it. Check your community’s rules on tree removal first; I will work to them.
My Bullard tract is steep. Can you still mulch it?
Tracked mulchers handle the slopes around here fine, and the chip layer they leave is the best thing for a steep clay hillside, because it keeps the ground from washing. Where a slope is truly too steep for the machine I tell you so when we walk it.
Can you get old pasture back for horses?
Yes. Pasture that has grown up in yaupon, briars and sweetgum saplings mulches back to open ground in a pass, and once it is shredded a couple of times a year it stays that way. I also clear the fence rows so you can rebuild the fence before the stock shows up.
What is the difference between brush removal and forestry mulching?
Mulching is one way to remove brush: grind it in place and leave chips. Brush removal is the broader job, which can also mean cutting the material and hauling it off when you want it gone completely. I do both and recommend whichever fits your lot, your budget and what you plan to do with the ground.
Can you clear the brush without hurting the trees I want to keep?
Yes. Clearing the understory while leaving the pines and post oaks standing is the most common request I get. I work around the trees you point out and keep the machine off their trunks and major roots.
How do I keep the brush from coming right back?
Yaupon and sweetgum resprout from the roots, so plan on maintenance: shred or bush hog once or twice a year, or re-mulch every couple of years, and the ground stays open. Where you need it permanently clean, root grubbing by a dirt contractor is the next step after I clear it. I will tell you which your land needs.
