Underbrushing

If you have attempted the laborious task of “hand-clearing” you probably already know how time consuming, inefficient and expensive it truly is. You may have experienced, first hand, the sense of defeat that accompanies the realization that your labor has merely created further hassle in the form of brush piles. With forestry mulching technology the need for costly and tedious handwork is eliminated. Undesirable vegetation is mulched on the spot, into a rich and attractive layer, turning unusable woodlots into gorgeous glades and shady gathering areas.

Underbrushing is Fast and Cost Effective

Underbrushing is one of our most popular services. Clients are often amazed to find that their lots or wooded acreage can be thoroughly or selectively transformed to their needs in as little as a day; at a price that literally shames other methods. Real estate agents, developers and homeowners associations have found that our underbrushing services were literally the difference between properties staying on the market and selling.

Benefits of Underbrushing with Forestry Mulching Equipment

Another important benefit of forestry mulching is the reduction of “ladder fuels,” woody and vegetative material that allows wildfires to spread unabated through forested and residential areas. Furthermore, underbrushing with forestry mulching equipment can be done with minimal disturbance to delicate topsoils, “keeper” trees and desirable vegetation. The mulch helps minimize ground pressure disturbances and negative impacts upon sapling and roots. On more than a few occasions we’ve seen “conventional” underbrushing efforts fatally damage the roots and/or trunks of nearly every remaining tree, not to mention the topsoil. Our professionals are knowledgeable about the delicate ecology and diverse flora of our Southern Appalachian Mountains and foothills.
