One of Houston's Oldest Tree Companies Still Open For Business!!!!
Tree trimming, tree removal, lot cleaning, stump grinding, and other stuff—just ask!
Tree Service
Tree Trimming
We walk every limb that is possible on the tree, thinning it out properly for perfect airflow during windy days. Our goal is to make a perfectly balanced tree without cutting any main branches. We use special clippers to take off the lower weight around the canopy (this is very labor-intensive, but it is included in our affordable prices). Trees should still have their cross-limbs character. A natural tree trimming.
Of course, we only use our harness and ropes.
Ladders and tree spikes are for losers who don't have the experience to do it the right way and are killing our trees
Tree Removal
Trees have a life cycle, but need proper maintenance to keep the tree strong and healthy. Heat droughts, winter storms, and flooding have caused many trees to get stressed. Fungus, bark decaying, and tree cavities are signs of the tree being a threat to your home and property
Having the right tools, to include special proper rope pulleys and strong weight capacity ropes, plays an important role in taking down a tree.
Stump Grinding
After removing a tree, it is very important to grind the stump. Why? If you leave the stump it will rot, decayed and cause to attract unwanted insects/bugs.
If you decide to grind the stump, please make sure your tree company hauls away all the wood chip debris. You will have a nightmare if the tree company decides to leave; it will be heavy, and you will have to find a home for it (but not your flowerbeds... BIG NO, NO)
At RF Tree Service, we leave it somewhat flat so you can lay near dirt and sod. (Believe us, it makes a huge difference)
Tree Topping
This terminology has been eliminated by RF Tree Service, as suggested by the ISA. This weakens the root system and the structure of the tree. This will have an unnatural experience and will have the tree structure to have NO new growth. The trees will be shocked, and the pH level will slowly kill your tree.
It really makes sense. How will a human body react if we start chopping off a leg and an arm? Of course, we are going to struggle. RESPECT THE TREES LIKE A HUMAN.
