What the ground looks like when we leave

A forestry mulcher grinds brush and small trees where they stand. What's left is a layer of mulch on the soil, not bare, seed-ready dirt.

Some owners mow, spray, or seed afterwards. Landowners who keep mowing after mulching report that the larger brush does not grow back. Your quote spells out the three things below, so nobody is surprised at the walkthrough.

On your quote

Your quote says how the stumps will be left (ground level, below grade, or removed) and about how thick the mulch will be. We check it with you at the walkthrough.

Before we quote

Before we quote, we tell you what the ground will look like the day we leave and what it will need afterwards to keep the brush from coming back.

Ask us this first

These are the questions Arkansas property owners type into Google before they hire a land clearing company. Each answer starts with the answer.

Read the guides
Do I need a permit to clear land on my property?

Sometimes. Arkansas's ARR150000 construction stormwater permit can apply when 1 acre or more is disturbed, and 5 acres or more needs a Notice of Intent. On the first visit, Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service tells you which Arkansas rules may touch your job (burn bans, the 1-acre stormwater permit, septic permits) and who handles each.

What is the difference between land clearing and forestry mulching?

Forestry mulching is one way to clear land. A forestry mulcher grinds brush and small trees where they stand and leaves the mulch on the ground, while other clearing piles the cut material or hauls it away. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service writes which one your job gets on the quote.

How long does it take to clear an acre of land?

It depends on what is growing on that acre, so we don't guess at hours over the phone. After the site walk, Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service gives you a written quote with a start week. If the weather moves it, we call you.

Will grass grow after forestry mulching?

It can, but mulched land is not seed-ready dirt. Grass has to come up through a layer of ground-up brush, and many owners mow, spray, or seed afterwards. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service writes about how thick the mulch will be on your quote.

What to do with land after forestry mulching?

Keep mowing it. Landowners who keep mowing after mulching report that the larger brush does not grow back. Before we quote, Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service tells you what the ground will look like the day we leave and what it will need afterwards.

Will the stumps sprout back after mulching?

Some can. Landowners report beech and maple stumps sprouting back after mulching, and mowing keeps that regrowth down. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service writes on your quote whether the stumps will be left at ground level, below grade, or removed.

Does land clearing include hauling the brush away?

Only if your quote says so. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service writes what happens to every bit of cut material on the quote: mulched in place, piled, or hauled away. We walk the site with you before we call the job done.

Can you forestry mulch in the rain?

Not when the ground is too wet to work without rutting. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service tells you and reschedules, and any ruts we make are smoothed before we leave.

Is land clearing and grading the same thing?

No. Land clearing takes off the trees, brush, and stumps, and grading shapes the soil underneath so it sits level and drains. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service does both, and the written quote lists every charge, travel included.

What kind of insurance should a tree removal company have?

Liability insurance at the least, with a certificate you can see. Mark's Arkansas Land Clearing Service carries liability insurance and sends the certificate on request.
