Clearing
Tree and Brush Removal
Tree and brush removal clears overgrown lots, acreage and pastures for construction, access, fencing and property improvements. We remove small trees, heavy brush, undergrowth, mesquite, cedar and other unwanted vegetation throughout North Texas.
Clearing can target the entire property or specific areas such as homesites, building pads, driveway paths, fence lines, trails and pastures. Selective land clearing is also available when existing trees or portions of the property need to remain undisturbed.
Depending on the project, cleared vegetation and debris can be forestry mulched on site or hauled away. Tree and brush removal can also be combined with land clearing, grading and site preparation for new construction.
New construction
Lot Clearing for New Construction
Steele Construction handles lot clearing for new construction in McKinney, Celina, Anna and surrounding North Texas communities. We clear building footprints, driveway paths and other areas needed for new homes, including tree and brush removal, grubbing, vegetation removal and rough grading.
Our crew can take the same property from lot clearing directly into house pad construction, septic installation, driveway construction and drainage grading. Keeping the sitework with one contractor reduces scheduling gaps and keeps the project moving from one phase to the next.
For builders
Clearing and Grubbing for Builders
Steele Construction handles clearing and grubbing for builders and new construction projects throughout North Texas. We remove trees, brush, stumps, root balls and organic material from building pads, roadways and other areas shown on the site plan.
For new build sites, our crew clears and grubs the specified footprint, strips topsoil and rough grades the site to the required elevations. Removing roots and organic material before house pad or road construction helps prevent settling and creates a clean, stable surface for the next phase of site preparation.
Acreage
Brush Clearing on Acreage and Pasture
We clear overgrown acreage and pastures in Sherman, Pilot Point, Celina and throughout North Texas, removing saplings, thick brush, vines, mesquite, cedar and other unwanted vegetation while preserving the trees you want to keep.
Brush clearing can be combined with forestry mulching and brush hog mowing to open land for grazing, hunting, improved access, future construction or ongoing property maintenance.
Cleared vegetation can be mulched on site when appropriate, leaving the property open and ready for routine mowing and maintenance.
Two methods
Land Clearing vs Forestry Mulching
Overgrown land gets opened up one of two ways. Which one fits depends on what happens next.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Land Clearing
What does a land clearing contractor near McKinney actually remove?
Trees, brush, saplings and heavy growth, plus stumps and roots when the site is being grubbed for construction. The site is left rough graded and ready for the next phase, whether that is a pad, a pasture or a fence.
Can you clear only part of a property?
Yes. A building site, a fence line, a driveway path or selected areas can be cleared while the rest of the treeline stays standing.
How is land clearing priced?
By the property, after a site visit. Density of growth, tree size, access, whether stumps come out and how the debris is handled all move the number. Estimates are free.
What is the difference between land clearing and brush hog mowing?
Brush hog mowing cuts grass, weeds and light brush with a tractor and rotary cutter. Land clearing removes trees, stumps and dense brush. Once land is cleared, brush hogging keeps it open.
Do I need a permit to clear land?
Some cities in the area have tree preservation rules that can require a permit to remove protected trees, and rural land outside city limits is usually different. Check with the city or county for the property before clearing.
Do you clear the lot and build the pad on the same job?
Yes. On a new lot, clearing, the house pad, the septic system and the driveway are usually one contract with the same crew.
