Forestry Mulching

A tracked forestry mulcher grinds brush, vines, briars and small trees right where they stand and leaves a layer of mulch that protects the soil. It’s the fastest way to take back an overgrown back yard, wood line, fence row or pasture without tearing up the ground.

Underbrush, vines, briars, wisteria and poison ivy mulched in place
Selective clearing: keep the trees you want, lose the scrub around them
Pastures, hillsides and fence lines reclaimed
Trails, view corridors and walkable woods

Land & Lot Clearing

From a quarter-acre home site to several acres of overgrown farm ground, we clear land for whatever comes next: a new house, a driveway, a shop, a garden or pasture. Excavators, a forestry mulcher and dump trailers mean we can handle trees, brush, old structures and debris on one job.

Brush & Tree Removal

Trees leaning toward the house, dead pines, wisteria swallowing the yard, a fence row gone wild: we take it down and clean it up. Logs can be loaded out on the dump trailer, and brush can be mulched on site.

Stump Grinding & Removal

Old stumps make a yard hard to mow and a site hard to build on. We grind them down or pull them out with the excavator, root ball and all, and tidy up the hole.

Grading & Drainage

After clearing, most ground needs shaping. We grade building pads, yards and slopes, cut and shape for driveways, and fix low spots and washouts so water drains away instead of standing or cutting ditches.

Storm Cleanup

After Hurricane Helene, a lot of Upstate and mountain families were left with trees on fences, roofs and driveways, and with quotes they couldn’t afford. We cleaned up storm damage across the area, from single trees to almost two acres for one customer, and we’re ready for the next storm.
