Tree & Stump Removal in Tyler, TX
Dead pines, leaning oaks and the stumps they leave: dropped, cleared and ground below grade so the spot is usable.
Tree & Stump in Tyler
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 Tyler
Tyler is the Smith County seat and the biggest town in East Texas between Dallas and Shreveport, and it is growing outward in every direction at once. The city itself is roses, azaleas and old oaks, but drive ten minutes past Loop 323 in any direction and you are in the woods: loblolly pine, post oak, sweetgum and a yaupon understory on rolling red sand. That is the ground I clear. South Tyler is pushing hard down Old Jacksonville Highway and Hwy 155 toward Flint and Lake Palestine, Loop 49 has opened up acreage on the west and south sides that used to be too far out, and east of town the lots around Lake Tyler and Lake Tyler East keep changing hands. Most of the people calling me have just bought five or ten acres and found out the pretty woods in the listing photos are a solid yaupon thicket you cannot walk into. I mulch the understory so you can see your land, open a house pad and drive without flattening the pines, take out the dead and leaning trees, grind the stumps, and clear fence lines so you can finally put up a fence. Pricing is by the acre or the job, set after I walk it with you, and the number does not move once the machine is on your property.

Common Clearing Scenarios in Tyler
The land clearing jobs I see most around here, and how I handle them.
Acreage on the south side that was never cleared
The land selling along Old Jacksonville Highway, Hwy 155 and the new stretches of Loop 49 is mostly pine and post oak timber that has never been touched. Buyers want a house in the trees, not a bare pad. I open the footprint and drive, mulch the understory on the rest, and leave the big pines standing.
Red sand that washes the minute it is bare
Tyler sits on sandy, iron-red soil that ruts and gullies after a hard rain if you strip it. That is why I mulch rather than push and burn: the chip layer holds the sand in place on a slope and keeps a fresh clearing from becoming a wash by the first spring storm.
Lake Tyler lots grown shut
Lake lots on Lake Tyler and Lake Tyler East that sat unused for a few years are thick with yaupon and sweetgum right down to the water. Underbrushing opens the view and the shoreline back up while the oaks and pines that shade the lot stay put.
