Service Areas

We work the Austin metro and the suburbs north of it, plus Kyle and Buda on the way to San Marcos. Ten cities, three counties, one crew that knows which soil it is standing on.

That last part matters more than it sounds. I-35 splits Austin down a geological seam. East of it you are on Blackland Prairie clay, which holds water, swells and shrinks, and tears roots as it moves. West of it you are on the Edwards Plateau, thin soil over limestone, where a mature live oak may have less anchorage than it looks like it has. The same species fails in two different ways depending on which side of the highway it grew on.

Travis County

Austin itself is the bulk of our work, and it is the strictest place we operate because of the Heritage tree ordinance. Lakeway is almost entirely hillside limestone, heavy on Ashe juniper and live oak, with steep driveways that decide whether a crane can get in at all. Pflugerville sits on the clay side and gets a lot of storm-snapped hackberry.

Williamson County

Round Rock and Georgetown both run their own tree ordinances, separate from Austin’s, and both are worth checking before you book anyone. Cedar Park and Leander are full of subdivisions built on cleared cedar land in the 1990s and 2000s, so the mature trees are mostly whatever was left standing plus twenty-five years of nursery stock. Hutto is flat, black clay, and windier than people expect.

Hays County

Kyle and Buda have grown fast enough that we now run down there most weeks. Both sit on the clay, both have a lot of young post oak and cedar elm going in around new builds, and both have acreage on the edges where land clearing is the more common call.

What we do in all of them

Everything on the services list travels: removal, trimming, stump grinding, emergency callouts.

Do you charge more to drive out to the suburbs?

No separate travel fee anywhere in the ten cities on this page. Georgetown and Buda are both around 30 miles from central Austin and neither one carries a surcharge. What does change the price is access: a narrow side gate in an older Austin neighbourhood costs more in labour than an open acre in Hutto.

Do the permit rules change between cities?

They change a lot. Austin protects trees from 19 inches in diameter and treats 24 inches and up as Heritage. Round Rock and Georgetown run their own separate ordinances with different thresholds. Unincorporated county land often has no tree permit at all. We check the rule for your specific address before quoting.

Which city do you get to fastest in an emergency?

Central Austin, Round Rock, Pflugerville and Cedar Park are the quickest, usually inside a couple of hours for anything touching a structure. Lakeway, Kyle and Buda are further out and depend on traffic on 71 and I-35. After a metro-wide storm every one of those numbers goes out the window and we work by severity.
