Comprehensive Tree Services We Offer

• Tree removal – When shade trees or palms require removal, it’s often because they have become diseased, damaged or pose a safety risk to your property. We use rigging to safely remove large limbs to minimize any impact on your landscaping.
• Tree limb removal – Sometimes all you need a few limbs removed because they are at risk of falling on your roof, or you have a pile of fallen limbs. We have the heavy equipment needed to take care of this task for you quickly, safely, and affordably.
• Stump grinding –Houston’s clay soils prevent tree stumps from decomposing very quickly. Old stumps can attract unwanted insects, invite tree sprouts, and become a trip hazard. Stump grinding removes the stump below the ground level to eliminate these problems. Then, you can safely landscape over the space right away.
• Tree trimming & pruning – We properly cut trees with a specific purpose in mind based on what you need. Whether thinning the crown to promote airflow or removing dead or diseased limbs, we keep each tree’s health, safety, and appearance at the forefront.
• Palm cleaning, pruning & removal – Palms require different care from shade trees. And, overpruning can weaken a palm. This is why we remove dead fronds, seedpods, and fruit, so your palms will look better than ever and ready to withstand local storms.
• Emergency storm cleanup – Houston residents are experienced living through storms of every variety (hurricanes, tropical storms, and heavy rain). These events can harm trees, young and old, and wreak havoc on your well-manicured property. We can respond quickly to clean up scattered limbs and remove the debris.
• Land clearing – We can assist you with preparing your property for development. By appointment, we can drive up to two hours from town to help you with ranches, farms or large acreage.

Commonly Asked Questions About Tree Service

 How much does tree removal or trimming cost in the Houston area?
The cost depends on the size and number of trees you have, their location, and the complexity of the job. Trees near businesses and homes, fences, or power lines may require more time and specialized equipment. We provide free estimates, so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Houston?
In many cases, especially for larger or protected trees, the answer is yes. If a tree presents a hazard or is diseased or dead, it can often be removed. The City of Houston requires a formal notice and may require tree replacement when certain trees are removed. Trees located in public areas or tied to development projects often require additional approvals. Small municipalities and homeowner associations (HOA) also frequently maintain rules surrounding tree removal. We can help you understand what’s required and keep your project moving without delays.

What happens to the debris after tree trimming or removal?

We handle the entire cleanup process from start to finish. That includes hauling off branches, limbs, and debris so your property is left clean and ready to use. If you’d like to keep mulch, large tree trunks, or wood chips, just let us know.

Will tree removal or stump grinding damage my yard or landscaping?

We take care to protect your property during every job. Using proper equipment and rigging techniques, we control how branches are lowered and where equipment is placed to minimize the impact on your existing landscaping. We aim to leave your property cleaner than we found it and looking great. This way you can replant with confidence.

What’s the best time of year to trim shade trees or clean palm trees in Houston?

Shade trees in Houston are best trimmed in the winter or during the heat of late summer, especially for oak trees where timing helps prevent disease. Palms can be cleaned year-round, with most homeowners scheduling service before storm season or after high winds to keep their property well-maintained. Of course, trimming for safety and dead limb removal can be done any time of year.
