Tree service in Flower Mound

The town's Tree Removal Permit process applies to Specimen and Historic trees. The fee is $250 per tree, capped at $1,000 per application, plus $200 per required notice sign. Removing two trees with one sign, for example, would cost $250 x 2 + $200 = $700 in town fees, before the crew's price.

Ask the town whether your tree counts as Specimen or Historic before you sign a removal quote, and ask the tree company to wait for the permit. Lots near creeks such as Timber Creek, Graham Branch and McKamy Creek may sit in a flood hazard area, where the town prohibits development; ask before any grading or stump work there.

Flower Mound oak pruning season

Texas A&M Forest Service says oaks should not be pruned or wounded from February through June, and wounds should be painted at any time of year; any paint will do. Oak wilt spreads when beetles carry spores from diseased red oaks to fresh wounds, then through grafted roots. Ask an arborist whether oak wilt has turned up on your street before any oak work.

Flower Mound trees near power lines

Where Oncor serves your street, Oncor trims along its lines from pole to pole, while the service line from the pole to the house is the owner's job, with a paid temporary disconnect. Texas law bars work within six feet of a high-voltage line unless the operator has agreed safety measures.

Flower Mound brush pickup

Republic Services collects brush weekly. Ask whether the quote includes hauling, or whether the crew will stack cut limbs for pickup. After storms, Oncor prunes only what it needs to restore power and leaves debris it didn't create, so a fallen tree away from the lines is the owner's to clear.

HomeGuide's national averages (2026): removal $400 to $1,200, from about $200 to $3,000; trimming $400 to $900 per tree; stump grinding $120 to $400 for the first stump. Texas sales tax applies to tree removal, pruning and spraying. An ISA Certified Arborist credential is professional, not a government license; spraying trees for pests for hire needs a TDA license.
