Amanda Elliott
Forestry Mulching
We hired Cut Brush for approximately three acres of forestry mulching and couldn't be happier. Communication was outstanding from the very beginning, the crew was professional and efficient, and we loved the regular updates and photos throughout the project. It's refreshing to work with a company that values communication and quality workmanship. Highly recommend!

Stan Creech
Land Clearing
Greg did a fantastic job with our land that was overgrown with vines, brush and trees. It took about 1 1/2 days of constant work with the machine to get this 0.6 acres under control. Greg was here at 8am sharp, just as promised. Very professional and reliable. 100% satisfied customer! I highly recommend Cut Brush for land clearing.
A straightforward process from the first conversation to land you can use.
From a barberry thicket under the oaks in New Ipswich to a brushy house lot in Bedford or a field edge outside Holden, MA.
Offered around New Ipswich and on both sides of the state line. Brush, barberry and young trees are ground where they stand, so the roots stay in the hillside and nothing is piled.
A grown-over hill pasture, a woodlot edge or a house lot gone to saplings, opened to the line you pick, with stumps ground level with the soil.
Thorny Japanese barberry, bittersweet and brush under the oaks and pines you are keeping, cut to walkable ground, with the resprouts planned into the quote.
Room for a house, drive and utility run on a sloping wooded lot, laid out around the steep pitches and wet spots before anything is staked.
Watch our crew transform overgrown properties with professional forestry mulching equipment.
New Ipswich sits in the hills on the Massachusetts border, under New Ipswich Mountain and Barrett Mountain, and the land around it is mostly woods, old hill pasture and house lots cut from both. Cut Brush clears that ground for owners in New Ipswich and out through Merrimack, Nashua, Manchester and Keene, and south over the line to Fitchburg, Leominster, Gardner and Lowell, MA.
Most jobs here start with forestry mulching: our crew grinds barberry, brush and saplings where they grow, the chips stay on the ground, and the roots stay in the slope. We also offer land clearing, barberry and understory clearing and lot and homesite prep.
Stone, slope and wet pockets decide how a day goes on this ground, more than the acreage does. Request a free quote; we'll contact you to discuss your property, access and the clearing you need.
On a hill lot outside New Ipswich the cutting is the easy part. The work is getting a machine onto a slope full of buried stone, keeping the soil where it is afterwards, and stopping barberry from filling the same ground again.
Comparing bids first? The New Ipswich forestry mulching cost guide explains how stone and slope move an acre, and the New Hampshire land clearing cost guide covers the statewide rules on burning, shoreland and earth moving.
Slope and stone set the pace. New Ipswich has ground steeper than 15 percent and soils with bedrock within about a meter of the surface, and several of its summits top 1,800 feet. The soil is a loamy layer over dense, stony till on glaciated uplands, and only the farmed fields were ever cleared of trees and stones. A mulching head slows over rock it cannot see, so slope and stone move an acre within its band.
The town protects wetland edges and steep ground. New Ipswich's zoning keeps a 25-foot natural woodland buffer beside wetlands larger than 10,000 square feet and along surface water. Trees there are thinned under a point system adapted from the state shoreland law, and no fill or excavation is allowed. Requests on slopes over 15 percent need a sediment and erosion control plan. Over the line in Massachusetts, work near a wetland or river starts with the town conservation commission. Requirements vary by parcel, scope and jurisdiction, and the governing authority makes the determination.
Barberry is a prohibited plant here. New Hampshire's invasive species rule lists Japanese barberry, bars moving any living part of it and requires disposal that leaves it nonliving and nonviable. It has been reported in Hillsborough County and every other county in the state. Grinding it where it grows fits that rule, and our New Hampshire Japanese barberry removal guide covers the follow-up that keeps it from returning.
