Ongoing maintenance contracts keep cleared properties in St. Lucie County from reverting to brushland during the permitting, platting, and construction phases that can stretch over months or years. We schedule mulching or mowing visits to suppress regrowth. Serving Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, St. Lucie West, Tradition, and 4 more communities across St. Lucie County.
Quarterly to annual regrowth control for previously cleared properties. Scheduled return visits with forestry mulching or mowing equipment to protect your clearing investment.
Florida's growing season never really stops in St. Lucie County. A parcel cleared in January can support 8-foot-tall dog fennel and waist-high Brazilian pepper seedlings by August. Builders who phase their development across multiple years need maintenance on cleared-but-unbuilt sections to avoid re-clearing costs that can exceed the original clearing investment.
Vast expanses of slash pine flatwoods and wet prairie characterize the interior, with coastal dunes and mangrove shoreline along Hutchinson Island. The western reaches feature improved pasture and former citrus groves transitioning to master-planned communities. Savannas Preserve State Park protects one of the largest freshwater marsh systems on Florida's east coast.
Massive residential subdivision clearing for Port St. Lucie's continued expansion, commercial pad site preparation along US 1 and I-95 corridors, citrus-to-residential conversion throughout the western reaches, homesite clearing in Tradition and St. Lucie West, coastal property hurricane rebuilds on Hutchinson Island, and drainage improvements for flood-prone neighborhoods in older Fort Pierce subdivisions. Port St. Lucie consistently ranks among the fastest-growing cities in America, with thousands of new residential permits issued annually. The Tradition master-planned community continues expanding westward into former agricultural land. I-95 interchange development at Crosstown Parkway and Becker Road is generating commercial clearing demand. Fort Pierce's downtown revitalization is driving infill redevelopment, and the county's relatively affordable land prices attract builders priced out of Palm Beach County.
