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

Fence Lines in Kilgore

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 Kilgore

Kilgore sits on the Gregg and Rusk county line about 25 miles east of Tyler on Hwy 31, the town that the East Texas Oil Field built in 1930 and still wears it: the derricks of the World’s Richest Acre downtown, the East Texas Oil Museum at Kilgore College, and old lease ground on every side. Hwy 42, Hwy 135 and Hwy 259 run out of town through pine timber and pasture, I-20 and the Sabine River bottom are just north toward Liberty City, and the Rusk County side to the south is pine plantation and ranch country. The land here has a history under it: old well pads, lease roads, pipeline rights-of-way and tank battery sites that have grown shut with yaupon and sweetgum since the field slowed down. I reopen those roads and rights-of-way, mulch the brush off old pad sites so the acreage is whole again, clear homesites and drives for people building off Hwy 42 and Hwy 135, underbrush wooded tracts, clear fence lines on the ranch ground south of town and take out the hazard pines near homes. Sandy ground, fast-growing brush, and a lot of iron in the way means I walk every tract first, flag what matters, and price it by the acre or the job before the machine shows up.
