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 Dripping Springs 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 Dripping Springs

Dripping Springs enforces vegetation and property maintenance standards under Dripping Springs Code Ch. 16, administered in Hays 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 Dripping Springs 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 Hays 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 Dripping Springs case on the first look.

Dripping Springs abatement guides and code compliance checklists

Local guidance for boards and managers working under Dripping Springs Code Ch. 16 in Hays County. Work each checklist top to bottom and keep the photos with the notice number.

Working inside the Edwards Aquifer recharge zone

Belterra, Headwaters, and Highpointe sit over recharge features, so what runs off a cleared lot goes into the aquifer. Chemical and sediment control matters as much as the cut itself.

No broadcast herbicide near sinkholes, caves, or fractured rock outcrops. Spot treat only.
Refuel and service equipment on hard surfaces away from recharge features.
Keep a vegetated filter strip between cleared ground and any drainage way.
Stabilize disturbed soil the same day with mulch or seed rather than leaving it bare.
Report any open recharge feature found on a lot to the association instead of covering it with brush.

Dark sky and Hill Country appearance standards

Dripping Springs holds outdoor lighting standards and Hill Country associations tend to enforce a natural look. A lot cut to a suburban standard can still read as out of character.

Keep native grasses and wildflower areas where the association designates them, and mow the defined edge cleanly.
Do not clear understory to bare dirt. Retain low native cover for erosion control.
Trim vegetation away from exterior fixtures so light stays downward and shielded.
Remove cedar regrowth annually before it reaches four feet and becomes a machine job.
