CLEARING
Estate lots, legacy ranches, and Hill Country views cleared across Kendall County. We take the cedar, guard the oaks like they are ours, and leave the ground better than we found it.

Kendall County land has two defining facts. The first is beauty: live oak savannah, Cibolo Creek, and the Hill Country views that pull San Antonio money up I-10 every year. The second is risk: this county sits in the most active oak wilt territory in Texas, which means land clearing here is as much about what you protect as what you remove. We clear selectively around keeper oaks, time live oak work outside the high risk season when we can, keep equipment clean between properties, and seal cuts immediately. The cedar goes, the oaks stay, and the land looks like it was always meant to be that way.
The work itself splits with the county. Around town and in the gated neighborhoods, it is precision: view corridors opened on estate lots, defensible space cut around expensive homes, machines that fit through standard gates and step lightly over lawns and septic fields. Out past the city limits, it is ranch work at full scale: pasture reclaimed from cedar, fence lines cut clean, tanks and senderos opened up. When heavy dirt work follows, our Boerne bulldozer crew takes over.
Every service below is handled in-house. One crew, one point of contact, from the first walk-through to the final grade.

A lot of land clearing companies rent whatever the equipment yard has that week. We own purpose-built forestry machines and match them to your terrain. Not sure which machine your property needs? Try our cost calculator for an instant answer.
Our high horsepower dedicated mulchers run 300+ HP and chew through heavy cedar and mesquite at a pace no skid steer can match. That is how big tracts get cleared in days instead of weeks. We bring these machines when your material runs bigger than 8 inches in diameter and the property has access for an 11 foot wide machine.
For material up to 8 inches in diameter, our skid steer mulchers fill the gap. Subdivision lots, tree preservation, tight fence lines, and finish work around structures, they get in where the big machines cannot. Low ground pressure protects your topsoil, and they clear selectively around the oaks you want to keep.
Our crews run the Hill Country from Boerne through Bandera to Kerrville every week: selective cedar clears where every oak stays, estate lots opened for views, and ranch ground brought back to grass. One customer put it best after we cleared a four acre parcel near Kerrville in a single day: work they had budgeted six days for themselves. See our completed projects.

Our crew and machines do the work, selectively and cleanly. The mulch stays right where it falls, protecting the soil and feeding the grass. No burn piles, and no haul off needed.
You get open ground, clean sightlines, and land you can actually use again. If your project calls for full site prep, we handle that too.
Every Boerne property prices a little differently. A gated two acre estate lot is a different job than a hundred acres of cedar pasture, and access shapes the machine choice. Send us your address, acreage, and a few photos and we can usually quote it without a site visit. Prefer a walk through? We do those too, free either way. Here is what actually moves the number:
Most companies make you chase a number. Here is ours. The machine we bring depends on the size of your material and the access on your property.

Day rates help you budget. When you send photos or have us walk the property, you get a firm total for the whole job, free either way. For a deeper breakdown, read our guide on what it costs to clear land in Texas.
Never easy to write a big check, but well worth it. After two days they completely transformed a ten acre holly-choked mess into an open and inviting forest. Taylor bid the job and recommended the larger dozer-sized forestry mulcher.

I would highly recommend Pierce Land Clearing. I mentioned to Bobby, our operator, that he was an artist. He took an overgrown piece of land and turned it into a beautiful landscape. He saw my vision and made it happen.

They came out when they said they would and worked long days getting about 10 acres of mesquite cleared. It looks amazing now. Dillon is a hard worker and was able to advise on and execute a great strategy for attacking the project. I am very happy with the results.

The city of Boerne takes its trees seriously, with preservation rules that can require a permit for removing larger protected trees, while routine cedar and brush clearing usually needs none. Out in unincorporated Kendall County, requirements loosen considerably. Floodplain rules run along Cibolo Creek and the Guadalupe, and building projects bring county requirements of their own. We sort out exactly what applies during the free estimate, before any work starts.
Estimates usually happen within a few days, and photos are enough to get most Boerne quotes started. Estate lots often finish in a single day, ranch projects run longer, and if a protected tree permit is in play inside city limits, we flag the lead time early. You get a start window with your quote and a heads up before we roll.
Boerne work runs from gated estate lots to legacy ranches, so the range is wide. Our day rates are published: $3,000 for skid steer mulchers with transport included, $4,000 plus transport for the high horsepower dedicated machines. Send photos and acreage for a fast firm total, or get an instant ballpark with our cost calculator.
Very carefully, because Kendall County sits in the most active oak wilt territory in Texas. We clear selectively around your keeper oaks, avoid cutting live oaks during the high risk season whenever possible, keep equipment clean between properties, and seal any oak cuts immediately. Protecting the oaks is half the reason people hire us here.
Three returns on one job. Cedar drinks the water table, so springs and wells benefit when it goes. It crowds the oaks and grass that make this county beautiful. And on the wildland edge, cedar is fire fuel stacked next to expensive homes. Mulched in place, it becomes ground cover that feeds the land instead.
Yes, that is precision work and we are built for it. Our skid steer mulchers fit through standard gates, maneuver around pools, septic fields, and established plantings, and their low ground pressure leaves lawns and driveways intact while we take out exactly what you want gone.
Absolutely. The same company that clears a two acre estate lot in Fair Oaks Ranch runs the big dedicated mulchers on hundred acre pasture reclamation. Fence lines, senderos, tanks, and ranch roads are all in house.

With mulching, nothing needs to leave your property. Everything grinds into a mulch layer that protects the soil, holds moisture, and feeds the grass as it breaks down. There are no brush piles to burn and no haul off trucks to pay for, which is a big part of why mulching costs less than traditional clearing.
In typical Kendall County cedar and brush, the dedicated mulchers clear several acres a day and the skid steers cover about an acre or two of lighter growth. Steep or rocky ground slows the pace, which is why we quote the whole job up front.
Yes. The Hill Country from Boerne through Bandera and Kerrville is a regular circuit for our crews. Estimates usually happen within a few days, and photos are enough to get your quote started.
One of our favorite jobs. Selective cedar removal brings back the Hill Country horizon that made you buy the land in the first place, and every oak stays right where it belongs. Views are property value in this county.
