Why fence lines get overgrown
Fence lines are where brush wins first. Birds perch on the wire and drop seeds, mowers can’t get close, and within a few seasons the fence disappears into cedar, briars and saplings. Overgrowth pushes on wire, rots posts, hides damage and gives livestock a way out.
What we do
- New fence prep: clear a straight, wide corridor along the survey line so post holes can be dug and wire stretched without fighting brush.
- Existing fence clean-up: cut brush back from both sides of an existing fence so you can inspect, repair and maintain it.
- Boundary visibility: open up property edges for security, access and a cleaner look.
Our articulating brush cutter reaches tight to a fence, along ditches and on banks, while the forestry mulcher handles the heavier growth. Everything is ground into mulch — no brush piles left along your boundary.
Before you call
For new fences, have your property corners or survey stakes located so we clear in the right place. If the old fence is coming out, let us know whether you want it removed first — mulchers and old wire don’t mix.
Fence Line Clearing FAQs
Can you clear next to an existing fence without damaging it?
Yes. We use the articulating brush cutter and careful mulcher work along standing fences. Loose or buried wire is a hazard, so tell us about any old fencing in the brush.
How wide a strip do you clear for a new fence?
It depends on the fence type and how your fence builder works. Most landowners want enough room for equipment to drive the line comfortably. We will confirm the width with you up front.
