Tree & Stump Removal in Flint, TX

Tree & Stump in Flint

Clearing land in East Texas means dealing with trees, and trees leave stumps. I take out trees that are dead, leaning, storm-damaged or standing where a house, a drive, a fence or a pond needs to go, and I grind the stumps so you are not left with a yard full of root balls that sprout, rot and wreck a mower. Around Tyler that is mostly loblolly pine killed by beetles or lightning, water oaks and sweetgums that come down or crack in spring storms, and post oaks in the way of a build. I handle single hazard trees close to a house, the trees inside a building footprint on a lot clearing job, and the leftover stumps from an old fence line or a half-finished clearing somebody else walked away from. A stump is not just ugly. Sweetgum and yaupon resprout from it, pine stumps draw termites toward a house as they rot, and you cannot mow, grade or pour over it. The tree and the stump go together so the ground is actually clear.

Land clearing in Flint

Flint is the unincorporated country southwest of Tyler along Old Jacksonville Highway (FM 2493), Hwy 155 and FM 346, and it is where South Tyler is growing fastest. Gresham on the north end runs straight into the city, Noonday is just down the road, Lake Palestine is a few minutes west, and the south end of Loop 49 has put all of it within an easy drive of town. The result is that wooded tracts that were pasture or timber for generations are being carved into acreage homesites, and every one of them has the same yaupon understory under the pines and post oaks. I spend a lot of my year in Flint. I open house pads and drives on new lots off FM 2493 and FM 346, mulch understory on tracts so the owner can walk them, clear the lots on the east side of Lake Palestine along Hwy 155 so there is a view, take down dead pines before a storm does it, and clear fence lines for the small horse places that are everywhere out here. The soil is deep sand, which makes mulching the right call: a chip layer keeps a fresh clearing from washing down the slope toward the lake. One operator, one machine, a per-acre or per-job price set after a walk.
