Local insight: Pedernales River hill country requires rustic ranch fencing, cedar clearing, and outdoor stone kitchens.
Cedar encroachment is a real issue across this part of the Hill Country, where Ashe juniper crowds out native grasses and drinks scarce groundwater. Cedar clearing is a valuable service on ranch and rural properties, opening up pasture, improving water availability, and reducing fire fuel. We clear and manage cedar at scale, restoring the native landscape the region depends on.
The ranch lifestyle centers on the outdoors, and outdoor stone kitchens are a signature project — built from local limestone with proper structure for grills, counters, and gathering space that make the most of the Hill Country setting and the Pedernales views. We build these as durable outdoor rooms anchored to the rocky ground.
The soil is thin over hard limestone, so footings and irrigation trenches mean rock drilling, and we favor drought-hardy natives and efficient drip given the reliance on wells. About fifty-five miles from our shop via US 290, Johnson City is within our service area for ranch fencing, cedar clearing, stone outdoor kitchens, and backflow testing.
