Fence Line & Right-of-Way Clearing in Bullard, TX

Overgrown fence rows, property lines, easements and ranch roads cut back to a clean strip you can fence, survey and drive.

Fence Lines in Bullard

Fence lines disappear fast in Smith County. Yaupon and briar grow up through the wire, sweetgum saplings push the posts over, and within a few years you cannot walk the line, let alone fix it. Property lines go the same way, and so do pipeline easements, power line rights-of-way and the ranch roads that get you to the back of the place. I clear those strips back to a clean, consistent width the whole length of the line. For a fence that means mulching the brush off the old wire so you can pull it and set new posts, with a buffer on each side so it does not close back in by next summer. For a property line it means opening a clear sight line so a surveyor can find the pins and you can see where your land stops. For easements and lanes it means a strip wide enough to drive and maintain. Linear clearing is its own kind of work: you need a clean edge, a steady width and a machine that can work tight along wire without tearing up the pasture on either side. That is what the mulcher does best, and I do a lot of it on ranchettes and acreage from Lindale to Jacksonville and Canton to Gilmer.

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.

Fence Lines 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.
Can you clear a fence line without wrecking the existing fence?
Yes. I work tight and controlled along standing wire, grinding the brush and briars off the fence without pulling the posts. If the fence is already destroyed by growth through it, I will tell you what is worth saving and what is easier to replace once the line is open.
How wide a strip do you clear?
It depends on what the line is for. A fence wants a strip wide enough to set posts and stretch wire with a mower width on each side. Pipeline and utility easements often have a required width. Tell me what the strip is for and I clear a clean, consistent line to match.
Can you open up a property line so I can get it surveyed?
That is a common job. I clear a sight line along the boundary so the surveyor can find the pins and shoot the line, and so you can see your corners from the road. If you know roughly where the pins are, flag them and I will clear to them.
