Land Clearing in Abilene, TX

Clearing brush, mesquite, and cedar to open up land that's worth using.

Land Clearing is one of the most-requested services Rangefinder Excavation provides around Abilene, TX. Abilene's blend of city growth and surrounding agricultural land keeps us busy with both land development and ag terrace projects.

Mesquite and cedar don't just look bad — they choke out grazing land, hog groundwater, and make a property harder to use and harder to sell. Rangefinder Excavation clears land across the Permian Basin, opening up acreage for grazing, building sites, or general access.

Ground conditions — Abilene, TX

Taylor County ground runs from sandy loam to tight clay with rock ledges, so the same tract can dig three different ways.

Clay holds water long after a rain, which turns unimproved driveways and pads into ruts unless there is base under them and fall away from them.
