Overgrown acreage, choked fence lines, view-blocking brush. One machine pass handles all of it.
Field & Brush Clearing
Field and brush clearing is the broadest category in the forestry mulching service suite — covering everything from light annual undergrowth to decade-old cedar thickets, from a half-acre lot to a 200-acre reclamation. One pass with the FAE mulching head processes all of it in place: cut, chipped, returned to the soil. Drone-mapped before and after. Verified acreage on every invoice.
Field and brush clearing is the general-purpose capability within the forestry mulching service — applicable anywhere vegetation has overgrown what it should not occupy. The end state is an open, manageable surface with all cleared material returned to the soil as protective mulch. No fire. No haul trucks. No tipping fees. No bare, erosion-prone dirt.
The Capability
What the Machine Does
The CAT 299D3 XE fitted with an FAE forestry mulching head processes vegetation in a single pass — cutting at the base, feeding through the drum, and returning material as chip-level mulch in one continuous motion. Trees up to 8–10" trunk diameter, dense brush stands, mixed undergrowth, dead material, and thatch are all handled by the same head without changing equipment or making additional passes.
The result: the surface is clear. The soil profile is intact and covered by a 1–3" mulch layer. The material footprint is zero — nothing leaves the site that doesn't have to. The acreage cleared is documented to ±0.5cm by RTK drone survey before and after.
What it does not do: Field and brush clearing is not land reclamation. It does not grub roots to bare dirt, does not produce a construction-ready grade, and does not prepare a surface for concrete or structural foundations. If bare-dirt preparation is the goal, that's the Land Reclamation service.
The Outcome
What the Land Looks Like After
A well-executed brush clearing leaves the land looking intentional — open ground, manageable grass, preserved specimen trees standing cleanly without crowding brush at their base. The mulch layer blends into the ground within one growing season. Native grasses establish more aggressively into the cleared zones than into bare soil, because the moisture-retaining mulch layer gives them a head start.
Views open. Fence lines become visible and inspectable. Roads and access paths regain their width. Properties that looked abandoned look managed. The transformation from a drone photo is immediate — and the before/after 3D Digital Twin captures exactly how dramatic the change is.
What it preserves: Every specimen tree, live oak, pecan, and native tree marked in the pre-clearing plan stays exactly where it is. Clearing zones, preservation zones, and clearing boundaries are set before the machine rolls — and confirmed after by the post-clearing RTK scan.
Terrain Types & Clearing Rate
Type 01
Light Brush & Thatch
Young growth, mixed undergrowth under 4" diameter, annual thatch accumulation. Common in maintained properties with recent history.
Rate: 2–4 acres / day
Type 02
Moderate Cedar & Brush
Mixed cedar stands 4–8" diameter, established juniper, medium-density invasive brush. Most Hill Country properties fall here.
Rate: 1–2 acres / day
Type 03
Dense Mature Cedar
Heavy cedar monoculture, trunk diameters 8–12"+, no-daylight-through-canopy density. Unmaintained land for 10+ years.
Rate: 0.5–1 acre / day
Type 04
Mixed Rocky Terrain
Cedar or brush on Hill Country limestone with significant rock exposure. Terrain slows machine speed and increases wear per acre.
Rate: 0.5–1.5 acres / day
What Gets Cleared
Six Field & Brush Clearing Scenarios
Field and brush clearing covers a wide range of overgrowth situations — from a homeowner wanting their view back to a rancher reclaiming 80 acres of cedar monoculture. Every scenario runs on the same machine, the same drone verification, and the same zero-burn, zero-haul method.
Most Common
Cedar Thicket & Monoculture Clearing
Dense Ashe Juniper stands that have crowded out every other species — no grass, no native plants, no light at ground level. One machine pass opens the land completely, grinding the cedar in place and returning it to the soil. The most dramatic transformation in the portfolio.
Duration: 1–5 days · Equipment: CAT 299D3 XE + FAE Head
$1,500 – $3,000
/ acre
Price reflects density. Site scan confirms before quote.
What drives the price up
Mature cedar with trunk diameters above 8" processes slower than young growth. No-daylight-through-canopy density limits machine speed. Rocky terrain underneath increases wear and slows the pass. Properties unmaintained for 10+ years are consistently at the high end of the range.
General Purpose
Mixed Brush & Undergrowth Clearing
A diverse mix of invasive and native species — Mesquite, Agarita, Prickly Pear, Huisache, Shin Oak, and assorted understory brush that accumulates over time in untended fields and along property edges. The FAE head handles species diversity without requiring different equipment or multiple passes.
Duration: 0.5–3 days · Equipment: CAT 299D3 XE + FAE Head
$800 – $2,000
/ acre
Wide range reflects wide density variation by site.
What drives the price up
Mixed species stands with varying trunk sizes process less predictably than uniform growth. Prickly Pear at high density is particularly slow-going. Properties with significant slope change add positioning time. Preservation requirements in mixed stands require more careful operator judgment and slower speeds near selected trees.
Estate / Residential
View Corridor & Selective Opening
Precision selective clearing that removes specific brush and cedar to open views — to a ridgeline, a valley, a water feature, or the sunset — without wholesale clearing of the property. The RTK drone maps the target view axis before clearing, the machine works exactly within the designated corridor, and the post-clearing scan confirms the result.
Duration: 0.5–2 days · Equipment: CAT 299D3 XE + FAE Head
$1,500 – $3,500
flat or / acre
Scoped per corridor. Min. half-day mobilization.
What drives the price up
Selective clearing — where specific trees within a dense stand are preserved — takes significantly more operator attention and slower pass speeds than open clearing. Narrow view corridors with precise boundary requirements need more positioning time. Properties where the desired view axis requires working around existing structures or mature specimen trees add complexity.
Pre-Development
Lot Clearing for Development Access
Clearing an undeveloped lot or acreage to establish construction access, allow survey work, or prepare for the land reclamation phase. Brush clearing at this stage removes the overgrowth layer so a site can be properly assessed and staked before heavy equipment moves in. Not a substitute for land reclamation — a precursor to it.
Duration: 0.5–2 days · Equipment: CAT 299D3 XE + FAE Head
$1,500 – $3,500
flat or / acre
Often paired with Land Reclamation as Phase 1.
What drives the price up
Lots with significant cedar or mature brush on top of known limestone require more careful pass planning if the subsequent land reclamation phase needs to access specific areas. Lots adjacent to heritage trees or CRZ zones require more precise boundary management. Properties where construction timeline is compressed and mobilization must coordinate with other crews add scheduling complexity.
Large-Scale
Overgrown Field & Pasture Clearing
Fields that were once open — agricultural, recreational, or simply natural grass — that have been progressively invaded by cedar, Mesquite, and brush over years of non-management. The clearing recovers what was there before: open ground, native grass potential, and the light that invasive species blocked. Larger acreage, systematic zone approach, phased clearing available.
Duration: 2–10+ days · Equipment: CAT 299D3 XE + FAE Head
$1,200 – $2,800
/ acre
Volume pricing on 20+ acre projects. Site scan required.
What drives the price up
Mixed-age stands where young growth and mature growth are intermixed require variable pass speeds. Fields with drainage features — wet weather creeks, seasonal ponds, low areas — require machine repositioning around sensitive areas. Properties with prior clearing history that was partial or abandoned may have irregular density patterns that reduce the efficiency of zone-based clearing.
Recurring
Annual & Biennial Maintenance Clearing
Cedar and brush don't stop at the first clearing. Annual or biennial maintenance clearing keeps previously cleared areas managed — catching regrowth before it becomes a restoration project again. Maintenance visits are scoped from the post-clearing baseline scan, so the clearing targets exactly where new growth has occurred, not the whole property.
Duration: 0.5–2 days · Equipment: CAT 299D3 XE + FAE Head
$800 – $2,000
/ visit
Available to clients with completed initial clearing.
What drives the price up
Properties with strong Ashe Juniper seed banks experience faster regrowth than those where the seed source was fully addressed. Annual maintenance on a 2-year cycle costs less per visit than recovery clearing after 5 years of unchecked regrowth. Properties with significant slope — which accelerates cedar seed migration downhill — require more frequent monitoring and clearing to stay ahead of invasion.

How It's Done
Mulch-In-Place vs. Every Alternative
There are three ways to clear field and brush. Two of them create additional problems. The comparison below is the reason every ClearGround clearing job uses the FAE mulching head — and why the result is better for the land, not just easier on the schedule.
Traditional Methods
Clear-and-Haul / Clear-and-Burn
×
Multiple equipment passes — felling crew, skid steer for piling, haul trucks for removal. Each pass costs money and time.
×
Burn permits required — frequently unavailable during high fire risk periods, which often coincide with the clearing season.
×
Hauling costs add up fast — tipping fees on 5 acres of cedar can match the clearing cost itself. Trucks also damage roads and compact soil.
×
Soil profile disrupted — bare dirt after clearing erodes immediately, loses organic material, and requires remediation before native grass establishes.
×
No verification — no measurement of what was actually cleared, no documentation of acreage, no record for insurance or future reference.
×
Ember risk during burns — controlled burns in dry conditions can and do escape containment, particularly in cedar-heavy Hill Country terrain.

At Any Phase of Your Field & Brush Clearing — The Data Is There
Phase 01
Pre-Clearing Property Survey
The Quote Comes From Data, Not a Walkthrough.
Before a price is quoted or a machine is scheduled, a Mavic 3 Enterprise RTK drone maps the entire property. Vegetation type and density are captured zone by zone. Brush density maps show exactly where the heavy clearing is versus the light work. Specimen trees, drainage features, and property boundaries are all identified and documented.
The clearing plan is built from that data — not from what the operator thinks they saw walking a few transects. Every preservation zone, every clearing boundary, and every staging area is defined before the machine rolls. You approve the plan. Then we move.

Phase 02
Systematic Clearing Execution
Dense Zones First. Nothing Left Guessed.
The CAT 299D3 XE with FAE mulching head works the property in the sequence defined by the clearing plan — highest-density zones addressed first, selective preservation zones worked carefully, boundaries maintained with RTK reference data on the operator's display throughout the job.
Cedar, Mesquite, and mixed brush are ground in place. The material is returned to the soil at chip level. No hauling. No burn permits. No secondary operations required. The field or brush area transitions to open ground in a single equipment pass, leaving the mulch layer in place to protect the soil and support native grass recovery.
On multi-day projects, mid-job drone scans capture exactly what's been cleared and what remains. Dense zone progress is confirmed against the clearing plan. Preservation boundaries are verified — no creep into flagged specimen trees or property-line buffer zones. If a terrain feature changes the optimal clearing sequence, it's documented and adjusted before proceeding.
Remote access to progress data means you don't need to drive to the property to know where the crew is. The drone shows exactly what changed since the last update, and flags anything that needs attention before the next clearing session.

Phase 04
Completion & Acreage Verification
Every Acre on the Invoice Is an Acre in the Scan.
Final RTK drone survey maps the completed clearing at the same survey-grade accuracy as the pre-clearing baseline. The overlay shows exactly what changed — zone by zone, boundary by boundary, acre by acre. The cleared acreage in the verification scan matches the acreage on the invoice. The preserved areas are confirmed untouched. There is no "trust me" in this process.
If any element of the clearing plan wasn't completed to specification, it's identified before the machine demobilizes and addressed before the job is closed. The final documentation only goes out when the work matches the plan.

Deliverable
Your Property. On Record. Before and After.
Every clearing project delivers a complete 3D Digital Twin of the property — before and after clearing — hosted on Pix4D Cloud and accessible via shareable web link. No software download. Navigable in 3D from any browser. Share it with a landscape architect, a real estate agent, a wildlife biologist, a land manager, or your own records. Use it to plan what's next: fencing, roads, water features, or the next phase of clearing.
The Digital Twin also serves as the baseline for annual maintenance clearing. Future maintenance visits compare against this record to target exactly where regrowth has occurred — not the whole property, just what's changed. No other clearing company in Central Texas delivers this. Most hand you an invoice. We hand you a verified, permanent record of your land.

A cleared property that isn't maintained reverts. Cedar seed dispersal is aggressive, and young Ashe Juniper can re-establish visible growth within a single growing season. An annual clearing agreement keeps previously cleared areas managed on a predictable schedule — and targets exactly where regrowth has occurred, not the whole property again.

Maintenance agreements are available to clients who complete an initial clearing project with ClearGround. All maintenance visits are compared against your post-clearing baseline scan — so the clearing targets exactly where regrowth has occurred, not the whole property again. That means shorter visits, lower cost per year, and a property that never fully reverts.
Who This Is For
Field & Brush Clearing Clients
Field and brush clearing is the most broadly applicable service in the forestry mulching suite. The primary clients are estate and property owners — but the service reaches into every property type where overgrowth has exceeded what looks intentional or what's manageable.
Primary Client
Hill Country Estate & Ranchette Owners
20–200-acre properties in Kerr, Gillespie, Blanco, Kendall, and Llano counties where cedar and invasive brush have progressively taken over what was once open land. The goal is restoration — open views, functional pasture, manageable property — without the hassle of burn permits, dump trucks, or incomplete work that re-grows within a year.
Typical scenarios
Cedar has closed in on a view that was open at purchase
Fence lines are invisible under brush and structurally compromised
Property looks abandoned from the road or from the air
Brush clearing quotes in hand but no one has explained what they'll actually do
Smaller properties — 2 to 20 acres — where overgrowth has made a house feel enclosed, a lot feel unusable, or a rural property feel like a maintenance burden rather than an asset. Field and brush clearing at this scale is often one half-day mobilization, and the transformation is immediate and dramatic.
Typical scenarios
Cedar has grown up to and around the house since purchase
Back acreage is completely inaccessible under brush
Property line is disputed or unclear because of overgrowth
Previous owner never maintained — new owner is starting from scratch
Undeveloped lots and parcels where brush clearing is the precursor to land reclamation, survey work, or site planning. Field and brush clearing opens the land for assessment — establishing sight lines for survey equipment, creating machine access for heavier earthwork, and producing the first clear aerial view of what the property actually looks like at grade.
Typical scenarios
Overgrown lot where survey work can't proceed without clearing
Parcel purchased at land auction with unknown vegetation condition
Development timeline requires clearing before permits can be pulled
Any brush crew will show up and cut. The difference is what happens before the machine rolls, during the clearing, and after the job is done — and the documentation that proves all three phases were completed to standard.
01
Site-Scanned Quote. Not a Walkthrough Guess.
The price for your project comes from RTK drone data, not from what the contractor thinks they saw walking a few transects. Vegetation density, terrain complexity, and preservation requirements are all mapped before a number is quoted. The price doesn't change when the machine arrives.
Data-Driven Pricing
02
Verified Acreage — Invoice Matches the Scan
Every acre on your invoice is a verified acre in the post-clearing RTK scan. The before/after overlay shows exactly what changed. Other contractors estimate acreage and expect you to trust them. We overlay the data and show you the number before the invoice is written.
Verifiable Precision
03
Single Pass. Zero Additional Operations.
The FAE mulching head cuts, chips, and returns in one continuous motion. No felling crew, no haul trucks, no burn permits, no secondary operations. The clearing is complete when the machine finishes its pass — not after three additional steps that each add cost and delay.
Zero-Waste Method
04
Specimen Trees Preserved and Confirmed
Every tree you want to keep is marked in the pre-clearing plan and confirmed untouched in the post-clearing scan. Live oaks, pecans, and native trees you designate for preservation are documented before the machine starts and verified after it finishes. No ambiguity about what the operator decided to take.
Preservation Verified
05
Mulch Layer Accelerates Native Grass Recovery
The chip-level mulch returned to the soil by the FAE head does more than cover bare ground. It retains moisture, buffers soil temperature, and provides organic matter to the microbiome that feeds native grass establishment. Properties that mulch-in-place recover native grass faster and more completely than those that burn or haul.
Soil Health Preserved

3D Digital Twin — Before & After, Permanently
Your before/after 3D Digital Twin lives on Pix4D Cloud with a shareable link — permanently. Use it to show a real estate agent, a landscape architect, a land manager, or a buyer exactly what was done and when. It's your property's permanent verified record. No other brush crew in Central Texas delivers one.

07
Maintenance Clearing Targets Only Regrowth
Annual maintenance visits use your post-clearing baseline to identify exactly where regrowth has occurred. The clearing targets those zones — not the whole property. That means faster visits, lower cost per year, and a property that never fully reverts to the condition that required the initial restoration.
Smart Maintenance
08
Veteran Operators. Hill Country Experience.
The person on the machine has 12–20 years of experience in the terrain you're asking them to clear — Hill Country limestone, cedar thickets, rough grade changes, specimen trees embedded in dense brush stands. Experience shows in the quality of a selective clearing. It's not something a lower price can replicate.
Operator Quality
FAQ
Field & Brush Clearing Questions Answered
The most common questions from Hill Country property owners, estate managers, and rural landowners about how field and brush clearing actually works.
What's the difference between field and brush clearing and land reclamation?
+
Field and brush clearing removes vegetation above grade — everything from light thatch to mature cedar — and returns it to the soil as mulch. The outcome is open ground with the soil profile intact and a mulch layer in place. Land reclamation goes further: it clears, grubs roots, removes subsurface material, and grades the surface to a specified elevation for construction or development. If you're restoring a view, recovering a pasture, or managing invasive species, that's field and brush clearing. If you're preparing a surface for a foundation, pool, or development grading, that's land reclamation — and it often begins with a brush clearing phase.
How do you prevent damaging trees I want to keep?
+
The pre-clearing RTK site scan maps the property with every significant tree visible. Before the machine rolls, we walk the clearing plan with you — either in person or via the 3D model — and confirm which trees are preservation-designated. Those designations are marked in the clearing plan as no-go zones. The operator has the clearing boundary data on their display throughout the job. After clearing, the post-clearing scan confirms that every preservation-designated tree is exactly where it was before. The documentation creates a verifiable record of what was preserved — not just what the operator says they avoided.
How long does the mulch layer take to break down?
+
At chip level — which is what the FAE head produces — the mulch layer typically integrates into the soil surface within 6–18 months, depending on rainfall and soil biology. The material is shredded fine enough that it doesn't mat or impede grass establishment the way coarser wood chip mulch does. During the breakdown period, it acts as a protective and moisture-retaining layer. By the time the second growing season arrives after clearing, most of the surface mulch is visually integrated and the native grass is establishing through it. Properties with high rainfall years recover the mulch layer faster than those with dry years following the clearing.
Can the machine work on rocky Hill Country terrain?
+
Yes — Hill Country limestone is our standard operating terrain. The CAT 299D3 XE is purpose-built for rough ground, and our operators have cleared on the Edwards Plateau terrain for over a decade. Surface rock exposure slows the clearing rate and adds wear to the mulching head — both of which are factored into pricing for rocky terrain sites. The pre-clearing drone survey identifies exposed limestone concentrations so we can account for them in the clearing plan and timeline, rather than discovering them when the machine is already on site. For areas where rock density is significant and clearing requires getting below grade, that work shifts into the land reclamation category.
How often does cedar come back after clearing?
+
Ashe Juniper regeneration rate depends on how the clearing was performed and what the surrounding seed pressure looks like. The FAE head processes cedar at chip level, which prevents regeneration from the cleared material itself. However, cedar seed dispersal from surrounding areas — particularly from birds moving through — means new germination is a long-term reality on cleared Hill Country land. Most properties see noticeable young cedar regrowth within 2–3 years if not managed. Annual or biennial maintenance clearing addresses this at the regrowth stage, before it re-establishes as a clearing problem. Properties adjacent to dense cedar source populations require more attentive maintenance than isolated properties.
Do I need to be present during the clearing?
+
Not for the full clearing duration — but we strongly recommend being present for the pre-clearing walkthrough where the plan is confirmed on the ground, particularly for selective clearings where specific trees or areas need designation. After that, the clearing follows the approved plan. Progress data from mid-job drone scans is accessible remotely — you can see exactly what's been cleared without driving to the property. Many of our Hill Country clients are in Austin during the week and aren't on the property daily. The drone data is how they stay informed. We also flag anything unexpected before proceeding — terrain changes, unexpected density, anything that affects the plan — so you're never making decisions after the fact.
What's included in the before/after Digital Twin?
+
The Digital Twin is a georeferenced 3D point cloud model of your property — captured before clearing and again after completion — hosted on Pix4D Cloud and accessible via a shareable link. From the browser, you can navigate the model in 3D, measure any distance or area, and overlay the before and after states to see precisely what changed. The model includes orthomosaic photography, Digital Surface Model data, and elevation information. You can export measurements in standard formats. The link is permanent — you can share it with a real estate agent, landscape architect, or land manager years from now and it will still show exactly what was done on your property and when. No software download required on the recipient's end.
