Damaged or broken limbs
Limbs that have cracked, split or partially failed and are still hanging in the canopy.
Dangerous / Hazardous Trees
When A Tree
Becomes A Problem.
A leaning trunk, a cracked limb over the roof, storm damage, or a big tree in a spot with almost no room to work. These are the removals that need the most planning — and the ones we're built for.
When you might need it
Common reasons
homeowners call.
The tree is leaning
A trunk that has shifted, or roots that have lifted, changes how a tree has to be taken down.
Storm-affected trees
After Houston storms, trees can be left in conditions that weren't there the day before.
Trees tight to the house
Very little room between the trunk and a structure means every piece has to be controlled.
The Squirrel approach
Difficult trees,
handled carefully.
We start by understanding what the tree is doing and what it could do. Compromised trees don't behave like healthy ones, so pieces are rigged and lowered rather than dropped, and the work sequence is set before anyone leaves the ground. No guessing.

Questions
Good to know.
The limb is over my roof — can you help?
Yes. Limbs above structures are lowered under control rather than cut free.
How fast can you come out?
Call us and we'll talk through the situation and what we can do. We don't advertise a guaranteed response time.
Do you work after storms?
Yes — see our 24/7 tree service for after-hours situations.
Can a damaged tree be saved?
Sometimes pruning is enough, sometimes removal is the right call. We'll tell you what we see.
