Built around what actually slows a board down

Defensible chargeback packets

Homeowners routinely contest forced maintenance when photos are blurry or property lines are vague. Every Yard Reboot dispatch delivers high resolution, location-tagged, time-stamped before and after photos attached directly to our line-item invoice, making your fee chargeback defensible.

48 to 72 hour mobilization

Do not let neglected lots sit for weeks attracting pests and code complaints. We hold dedicated fleet capacity for rapid response cuts, mechanical sidewalk edging, and hazardous limb clearance across Bastrop communities.

Fully insured, commercial grade

$1M / $2M commercial general liability, commercial auto, and workers' compensation. Commercial-grade zero-turn mowers and professional gas equipment, run inside posted quiet hours for complaint-free work in master-planned neighborhoods.

The community dividend

Where operational maintenance meets local goodwill

Unlike conventional contractors where maintenance profits leave the community, Yard Reboot operates as an earned-income 501(c)(3) social enterprise. You pay standard market rates, but 100 percent of our operating surplus funds zero-cost yard rescues, overgrowth and brush clearances, and accessible garden builds for fixed-income seniors, disabled military veterans, and neighbors facing physical hardship throughout Central Texas.

Local abatement rules in Bastrop

Bastrop enforces vegetation and property maintenance standards under Bastrop Code Ch. 14, administered in Bastrop County. Cure timelines run from the notice date, not from the date the board reviews it.
Texas Property Code Chapter 209 governs the notice and cure steps an association must follow before it performs a forced cut and charges the owner, so documentation of the notice matters as much as the cut itself.
Growth is measured at its tallest point, so a single untouched strip along a fence or alley can keep a Bastrop case open after the rest of the lot is cut.
Cut material must be hauled to a permitted facility. Burning is not an option during the county burn bans that cover most of the Bastrop County calendar.
Heritage and protected trees, creek buffers and drainage easements limit what can be cleared, so those areas are identified and worked around rather than stripped.
Re-inspection is photo driven. We hand over dated before and after images per lot, which is what closes a Bastrop case on the first look.

Lost Pines litter and regrowth management in The Colony and Pine Forest

Bastrop's loblolly pines drop a heavy needle cast every year, and it rebuilds into a matted layer that smothers beds, clogs gutters and hides regrowth. This is annual maintenance, not a one time clearing.

Rake or blow pine needle litter out of the first 5 feet around every structure each fall.
Clear roofs, gutters, and deck undersides of needles at least twice a year.
Limb pines up 6 to 10 feet so the understory stays open and easy to maintain.
Thin young pine regrowth to at least 10 feet of crown separation near the house.
Keep firewood and stored material off the walls and up off bare soil.
Keep driveways cleared 10 feet wide with 13 feet 6 inches of vertical clearance for service and emergency vehicles.

Sandy loam and erosion after clearing

Bastrop sandy loam moves fast once the cover is off. Clearing a lot without stabilizing it trades a vegetation notice for an erosion and sediment complaint.

Leave low ground cover in place while removing understory brush and dead material.
Mulch or seed disturbed soil the same day the clearing finishes.
Keep sediment out of road ditches and neighboring lots.
Chip on site and spread mulch no deeper than three inches, and keep mulch out of the first 5 feet around structures.
