Tree Trimming in Conroe, TX

If you've got a branch scraping your roof every time the wind picks up, or shrubs swallowing the walk to your front door, that's the kind of thing I take care of. I'm Kevin Sampson, and I run Nixon's Lawn Care here in Conroe. Along with mowing and cleanups, I handle tree trimming in Conroe, TX for homeowners all over town and around Montgomery County.

Here's what that looks like and how to get a price.

What I trim

I work on the trees and shrubs a typical Conroe yard has. That means the stuff you can reach with proper equipment from the ground or a ladder, not big removals or anything up near power lines. If a job is bigger than what I do, I'll tell you straight and won't waste your time.

• Ornamental and shade trees like crepe myrtles, live oaks, and maples
• Fruit trees that need shaping and thinning
• Hedges and shrubs along the house, fence, or driveway
• Low or dead branches hanging over the roof, gutters, or walkways

What I don't do

Large tree removals, stump grinding, and trimming near electrical lines aren't part of what I offer. Those need a specialist, and it's not fair to you if I pretend otherwise.

Why trimming actually matters

Trimming isn't just about looks, though a clean-shaped tree does make the whole yard look cared for. It keeps your trees healthier and saves you headaches down the road.

Tree health. Dead and crossing branches drain energy and invite disease and pests. Thinning them out lets light and air move through the canopy, which helps the whole tree grow stronger.

Clearance from your roof. Branches rubbing shingles wear them down, and limbs hanging over the gutters drop leaves right where they'll clog things up. In our storm season, a big overhanging branch is exactly what you don't want above the house.

Clearance from driveways and walks. Low limbs and overgrown shrubs make it a pain to pull in the driveway or walk to the door. Trimming them back gives you room and cuts down on the mess dropping on your car.

A little trimming now beats a broken limb on the roof after a storm.

When to schedule it

For most trees around here, late winter into early spring is a solid time, before the new growth really takes off. That said, dead or hazardous branches over the roof or driveway should come off whenever you notice them. Don't wait on those.

Shrubs and hedges do well with a trim once or twice a season to keep their shape. If you're not sure what your yard needs, tell me what you've got and I'll give you an honest read.

Frequently asked questions

How much does tree trimming cost?

It depends on the size and number of trees or shrubs and how much needs to come off. That's why I give free estimates by phone. Tell me what you've got and I'll get you a price with no pressure.

What time of year should I trim my trees?

Late winter into early spring works well for most Conroe trees, before new growth starts. But dead or hazardous branches over your roof or driveway should be trimmed whenever you spot them, regardless of the season.

Do you remove whole trees or grind stumps?

No. I focus on trimming and shaping trees and shrubs. Full removals, stump grinding, and any work near power lines need a specialist, and I'll be upfront if your job falls outside what I do.

How do I pay and book the work?

Everything gets set up by phone. Call me for a free estimate, we'll schedule a time, and once the work's finished you can pay through Venmo or Zelle.
