Landscaping, lawn maintenance, irrigation and tree work for River Chase properties in New Braunfels.
River Chase sits on acreage between New Braunfels and Canyon Lake, reached off FM 306 a short drive from Gruene, with homesites running roughly one to four acres and the Guadalupe reached through the subdivision's own river park rather than individual back yards. That layout changes how we scope a job here. A one-acre lot and a combined four-acre parcel call for different equipment, different irrigation zoning, and different answers on how much ground actually needs mowing versus how much stays in native brush.
On lots this size, the smart move is a defined irrigated zone close to the house, with Hill Country cover left alone past that line. The rocky edge soils common to this part of Comal County mean irrigation and drainage trenching often meet rock before they meet soft ground, so shallow drip lines usually beat deep trenching. Summer heat pushes St. Augustine and Bermuda hard, beds need mulch to hold moisture, and deer pressure on the Edwards Plateau is the highest in the state, so new plantings need some thought before they go in the ground or they will not last the season.
Hiring Corral Bros for a River Chase property starts with a free on-site estimate, usually set within 48 hours, where we look at your specific acreage, your drainage, and whatever portion of the lot you want irrigated versus left native. From there we handle the mowing, tree work, irrigation repair or install, and bed design, licensed and insured, and we will flag anything that needs a look at your association's landscaping standards before we start.
Yes. We schedule a free, no-obligation on-site visit, usually within 48 hours of your call. On acreage lots like River Chase's one-to-four-acre homesites, we walk the whole parcel with you, note where irrigated beds end and native cover begins, and price the work from there. Call (737) 404-9343 to get on the schedule.
River Chase sits on the rocky edge of the Edwards Plateau, so trenching for irrigation or drainage lines often hits rock sooner than you'd expect. We favor shallow drip routing over deep trenching where the ground allows it, which keeps install costs down and still gets water to new beds and trees without disturbing more rock than necessary.
Plan on a defined irrigated zone close to the house and let the rest of a one-to-four-acre lot stay in native Hill Country cover rather than trying to irrigate the whole parcel. That split is normal for acreage subdivisions out this way and keeps both your water bill and your maintenance load reasonable through a long Central Texas summer.
We can. The Edwards Plateau has the highest white-tailed deer density in Texas, and deer go straight for broadleaf ornamentals, so any bed near FM 306 or the surrounding acreage should assume browse pressure. We design with deer-resistant selections and fencing or caging where it matters, instead of planting something that gets eaten by midsummer.
Yes, that is regular work for us on Hill Country acreage. Whether it is thinning brush on an undeveloped section of a combined parcel, pruning and removing trees near the house, or clearing a line for a new irrigation run, we price it after we see the ground and the rock conditions ourselves.
We serve River Chase as part of our regular New Braunfels and Hill Country coverage, from the FM 306 corridor through the Gruene area and out toward Canyon Lake. We are licensed and insured for residential and commercial work, and we recommend checking your property owners association's landscaping standards before any installation, which we are glad to review with you.
