Forestry Mulching
We grind brush and small trees into mulch right where they stand. The mulch stays on the ground as a cover for the soil.

Heavy rock on a lot gets in the way of a lawn or a driveway. Rock milling grinds that loose rock into a base you can use, right where it lies. The mill turns surface rock into 3/4 minus caliche. Rocks up to 12 to 14 inches in diameter go through it.
The rock you already have becomes the material, which saves hauling rock out and base in. Intex Rock and Cedar Solutions mills rock for homeowners and landowners across Hays County and the Hill Country. Rock milling is one part of land clearing in Kyle and the towns around it. One job can pair it with cedar clearing.

Big rock comes first. Boulders and thick ledge rock get broken up with a hydraulic hammer on the skid steer. That rock breaking cuts them down to pieces the mill can take.
Then the grinding starts. Rock milling runs on a high horsepower, high flow tractor with the mill mounted on it. Rock crushing is the same job done with a skid steer rock crusher.
What comes out of the mill is 3/4 minus caliche, a fine crushed base. The state highway department's base guide prefers crushed material, since angular pieces lock together. The milled ground can then be leveled for a yard or shaped into a road.
Hays County sits where the Edwards Plateau meets the Blackland Prairie, and the Balcones Escarpment splits it. Hilly ranch country covers the northwest three quarters of the county. Grassy farm plains cover the southeast.
On the hilly side, the soil runs thin over limestone. Federal soil surveys list Comfort soils there, only 10 to 20 inches deep to hard limestone. Limestone cobbles and stones are mixed right into the top layer.
Dripping Springs and Wimberley are on that hilly side, and so is Driftwood, northwest of Kyle. Next door, Blanco County sits on the eastern edge of the plateau, with stony clay loams and rock outcrops. Cedar (Ashe juniper) grows on the same stony ground, so one job can take on cedar and rock together.
For a yard, the mill grinds the rock down and the yard gets leveled for turf. Topsoil and sod can then go down on a smooth bed. A rocky garden plot can be milled into ground you can till.
On acreage, rock removal by milling turns a rocky field or pasture into usable ground. We take on single backyards and whole fields, and trails through rocky acreage can be milled too. On commercial and development jobs, milled rock can become the base under pads and roads.
For a driveway or a ranch road, the milled rock often becomes the road base. A boulder-filled drive can be cleared and leveled, with the rock ground into road base. Cutting and grading the road is part of our site work on ranch roads and driveways.

I had Intex Rock & Cedar Solutions come out and rock mill about 2 acres of my field, and they did an outstanding job. The difference before and after was incredible. They showed up when they said they would, worked hard, and treated my property like it was their own.
Outstanding job by Trey with Intex Rock & Cedar Solutions! My wife and I were in need of a spot cleared for our future home and Trey exceeded our expectations. He also helped us with removing some old existing piers and leaving the ground nice and level. Highly recommend!
We recently had them out for a major project involving cedar clearing and rock crushing, and the results are incredible. They didn't just clear the land; they transformed the terrain. Their rock milling and crushing equipment turned rough, unusable limestone into a smooth, walkable surface.
