Vegetation Management 

Managing vegetation includes the targeted control and removal of undesirable vegetation like tree saplings, brush, potentially hazardous plant life, and much more. Vegetation management in residential settings, natural environments, roadways, and around critical utilities can pose a number of challenges and hazards. If left unattended to, overgrown vegetation can also cause roadway obstructions, destruction of utilities, property damage, and even personal injury. The Heidtman team understands the importance of proper vegetation management and can help significantly reduce these risks, and ensure the safety, health, and beauty of the environment.

Forestry Mulching

Our team offers professional forestry mulching services that are less intrusive and impactful than traditional land clearing methods, all designed to clear only the vegetation you want out while protecting the soil. Forestry mulching uses low-impact equipment to get rid of undesirable vegetation and debris such as: trees, deadfall, brush, and stumps by grinding them into mulch. Forestry mulching clears land without disturbing the topsoil, burning vegetation, or leaving large piles of dead material. Our methods do not erode the soil, and actually prevent erosion from happening. It also reduces the ability of new unwanted growth to come through while adding nutrients to the topsoil. What you’re left with after forestry mulching is flat, even land, perfect for agricultural uses, vegetation management, invasive species control, construction preparation, and so much more.

Field, Pond, & Roadside Brush Mowing Operations 

Every property has those hard-to-mow problem areas, the ones that make accessing with a lawn mower nearly impossible. When brush, grass, and other types of overgrowth become a major issue on your property, it’ll be almost impossible to use standard yard maintenance equipment to cut it down. To do the job right, you’ll need the right equipment.

Brush Hogging

Ideal for reclaiming neglected fields, preparing land for new projects, maintaining large properties, or reducing fire hazards, our heavy-duty equipment and experienced operators quickly transform unruly areas into manageable, usable spaces.

Survey Line Clearing

A clear view is absolutely essential for proper surveying. If the site is obscured by brush or trees, you can’t have clean demarcations for property lines, fence line, or survey lines. By clearing the paths for survey lines ahead of time, you save yourself or the construction company time that would only be wasted.
