Tree Services in Carrollton, TX
Most calls we get start the same way: a homeowner looks up at a tree and doesn't like what they see. A limb hanging over the roof. A trunk that's started to lean. Bare branches in the middle of summer. Whatever it is, here's what we handle.
Tree Trimming & Pruning
Dead wood out, weight off heavy limbs, and branches cut back from your roof, driveway, and power drop. Good pruning keeps a tree healthy and standing through the next storm.
Emergency & Storm Tree Removal
Tree on the house, on the car, or across the driveway? Call us any hour. We'll get the weight off your roof first, then clean up the rest.
Stump Grinding & Removal
We grind stumps below ground level so you can lay sod, plant, or build over the spot. We can also pull the full stump and root ball when you need the ground completely clear.
Land & Lot Clearing
Brush, small trees, cedar, and overgrowth cleared from lots, fence lines, and building sites. We haul it off or mulch it on site.
Tree Health Assessments
Thinning canopy, peeling bark, dead branches up top? We'll look the tree over, tell you what's wrong, and give you an honest call on whether it can be saved.
Tree Cabling & Bracing
Some trees with split trunks or heavy limbs can be held together with steel cables and rods instead of coming down. We'll tell you if yours is a good candidate or if removal is the safer move.
Why Carrollton Homeowners Call Us
You get a real answer.
We'll tell you if a tree needs to come down, needs a trim, or is fine the way it is. If it doesn't need work, we'll say so.
The price is in writing.
You'll know what the job costs before we start, including haul-off and stump work. No surprise line items at the end.
We protect your yard.
We use ropes and rigging to lower limbs in a controlled way instead of dropping them on your lawn, fence, or flower beds.
We clean up.
Branches chipped, logs hauled off or cut to firewood length if you want them, and the yard raked and blown off when we leave.
How Does North Texas Weather Affect Your Trees?
Trees around Carrollton take a beating. Spring thunderstorms bring straight-line winds and hail that snap limbs and split trunks. Every few winters an ice storm loads branches with more weight than they can carry, and you hear them cracking all night.
Summer is hard in a different way. Long dry stretches stress trees out, and our heavy clay soil makes it worse. Clay holds water in wet months and shrinks and cracks when it's dry, which pulls at roots. A stressed tree drops limbs more easily and has a harder time fighting off insects and disease.
The trees you see most in yards here are live oak, post oak, cedar elm, pecan, and some ash along the creeks. Each one fails in its own way. Pecans tend to drop big limbs without much warning. Live oaks spread wide over roofs and need regular clearance work. Post oaks are tough but don't handle root damage from construction well. Knowing which tree you've got tells us a lot about what to watch for.
The best time to deal with a problem tree is before the storm, not after. If you've got a limb over the house or a tree that's started to lean, have it looked at now. Learn about our tree trimming or see what we do after a storm.
Is Emerald Ash Borer in Carrollton?
Yes, it's in the area. Emerald ash borer is a small, metallic green beetle that kills ash trees. Its larvae tunnel under the bark and cut off the tree's flow of water and nutrients. The Texas A&M Forest Service confirmed it in Dallas County in 2022, including near the Coppell and Carrollton border. Dallas and Denton counties are now under a state quarantine that limits moving ash wood and firewood out of the county.
Signs an ash tree may be infested:
- Thinning leaves at the top of the tree
- Small D-shaped exit holes in the bark
- Bark splitting or peeling off in strips
- Lots of new shoots sprouting from the lower trunk
- Woodpeckers working the trunk hard
Not every struggling ash tree has borers, and a tree caught early may still have options. If you've got an ash on your property, schedule a tree health assessment. If it's too far gone, we'll take it down safely and handle the wood according to the quarantine rules. You can read more from the Texas A&M Forest Service.

Tree Service Questions We Hear Every Week
How much does tree removal cost in Carrollton?
It depends on the size of the tree, how close it is to the house or power lines, how easy it is to get equipment to it, and whether you want the stump ground. A small tree in an open yard costs a lot less than a big oak leaning over the roof. We'll give you a written price after we see it.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We'll come out, look at the tree, and give you a price in writing at no cost.
Can you come out after a storm?
Yes. Call any time, day or night. If a tree is on your house, we'll get the weight off first so the damage doesn't get worse.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Carrollton?
Rules can differ for trees on private property, in the parkway, or near easements, so ask us and we'll help you figure it out.
What happens to the stump?
Removal leaves a stump a few inches above ground. We can grind it below the surface so you can plant grass over it, or leave it if you'd rather. Stump grinding is quoted separately so you can choose.
When is the best time to trim trees in North Texas?
Late fall through winter works well for most trees, since they're dormant and pests are less active. Oaks need extra care because fresh cuts can draw insects that spread disease, so ask us about timing before you trim an oak.
