Why Professional Removal Beats DIY Every Time

Problem: One misjudged back-cut can drop 4,000 lbs of trunk onto your roof or a neighbor’s fence. Chainsaw kickback, hidden cavities, and Gulf-coast wind gusts turn “simple” removals into six-figure liabilities.

Solution: Our arborists use crane-assisted rigging, ground mats, and $2 M liability coverage to remove hazards safely—often the same day you call.

Cranes & Rigging – a 30-ton hydraulic crane and triple-redundant lowering blocks protect roofs, pools, and landscaping.
Precision Felling / Sectional Dismantle – bucket-truck or climber removes limbs top-down; trunk sections can be cribbed onto AlturnaMats to avoid lawn ruts.
Site Restoration – stump grinding to 12″, root-ball extraction if required, magnetic nail sweep, leaf-blower final pass.

Our Most-Requested Tree Services

Tree Removal

When a tree is dead, diseased, or dangerously leaning, our ISA-guided crews dismantle it section by section, protecting nearby roofs, fences, and power lines. Stumps can be ground the same day so you’re ready for re-planting or sod.

Stump Grinding / Stump removal / Root Ball Removal

Need an old stump gone for good? Our crew grinds stumps 6–12 inches below grade, eliminates surface roots, and hauls away the chips, leaving you with a clean, level spot that’s ready for fresh sod, a new tree, or hardscape. Fast, tidy, and fully insured—schedule your stump-grinding quote today.

Tree Planting / Tree Transplanting / Cabling & Bracing

From pocket-size ornamentals to 6-inch-caliper live oaks, we source Grade-A nursery stock, handle transport, and plant with proper depth, staking, and root-zone conditioning—all backed by a one-year health guarantee.

Tree Trimming / Tree Maintenance

Routine trimming clears rooflines, improves clearance for vehicles, and channels growth away from utility lines. We use ANSI A300 standards to avoid flush cuts and over-pruning that can stress the canopy.

Tree Shaping

Need a formal look? Our shaping crew sculpts hedges, topiaries, and ornamental trees into clean, symmetrical silhouettes, boosting curb appeal without harming long-term health.

Fine Pruning / Tree Pruning / Structural Pruning / Storm-Prep Pruning

For prized specimen trees, fine pruning targets deadwood and crossing limbs smaller than 2 inches, improving airflow and light penetration. Perfect for fruit trees and landscape centerpieces.

Topping / Crown Reduction / Crown Thinning

While we avoid indiscriminate topping, we do offer structured crown reduction to lower canopy height safely, reduce wind-sail, and protect roofs. Cuts follow lateral-branch rules to ensure rapid, healthy regrowth.

How soon can you schedule the removal?

Standard jobs are booked within 24–48 hours. Storm-related hazards or drive-blocking trees are prioritized for same-day service. Ask us about our Storm-Ready Plan for our Priority response guarantee.

How do you prevent damage to my house and lawn?

Every limb is lowered on controlled rigging lines; trunk rounds are optionally set onto AlturnaMats or plywood sheets. We finish with a blower pass and magnet sweep so your yard looks tidy when we leave.

Is stump grinding included?

Stump grinding is optional and priced separately. We grind below grade, backfill with chips, and leave the area ready for sod or re-planting.

What happens to the debris and stump?

Standard removal includes complete limb clean-up, trunk haul-off, and thorough raking. Stump grinding is optional and priced separately; you can keep the mulch or have us haul it away.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property in Houston?

Most residential trees in Houston do not require a city permit, but protected “corridor” or heritage trees can. We’ll confirm during the quote—if a permit is needed, we’ll handle the paperwork for you at no extra charge.

Are you licensed and insured?

Absolutely. Facundo Trees carries a Texas arborist license, $2 million in general liability. Proof of coverage is available on request or right here for download.

How is the price for tree removal calculated?

We factor in tree size, species, accessibility (e.g., backyard vs. curb), proximity to structures or power lines, and disposal volume. Our instant-quote tool gives a ballpark in minutes, and the on-site estimate locks it in—no surprise fees. You can even use our Instant Quote to see!
