Weed Whacking

We'll Knock Down Your Weeds

Small backyard or massive hillside, we'll clear it. We've tackled overgrown lots, steep hillsides, fence lines, drainage ditches, roadsides, fields, and everything in between. As long as it's not a vertical cliff, we're good to go!

Fire Clearance & Defensible Space

Cal Fire requires 100 feet of defensible space around your home (requirements vary by area). We'll clear that full perimeter so you're safe this summer and don't get fined. All of our cutting line and gear that touches the ground is plastic, so there's no risk of sparks. We also carry pressurized water on every job just to be safe.

Curious how your property would do in an inspection? Take our free 2-minute defensible space quiz, or book a free defensible space inspection and we'll walk it with you in person.

Got a Weed Abatement Notice From the County?

Every spring, Tuolumne County and Calaveras County mail out weed abatement notices. The letter gives you a deadline to cut your weeds. Miss it and the county can fine you, or send their own crew and bill you for the work. If that notice is sitting on your counter right now, don't stress.

We handle weed abatement notices every spring. We know what the inspectors want to see, and we can usually get you on the schedule the same week. Most notice jobs are done in a single day, so you're compliant well before the deadline. Wondering about price? Here's our honest breakdown of what weed abatement costs in Tuolumne County.

Firebreaks, Field Mowing & Brush Removal

Ranch or large lot? We cut firebreaks along roads, fence lines, and property edges so a grass fire has nowhere to run. One customer said it best: we "cut us a nice firebreak in very overgrown weeds as promised." We also do lot mowing and field mowing on open ground, light brush removal where the weeds turn woody, and green waste hauling so the cut material actually leaves your property. Fighting star thistle? That has its own page too. For heavier brush and small trees, see our brush clearing page.
