Friendswood tree work rules and checks
Waste Connections picks up green waste weekly. Grass and leaves go in clear bags of 35 pounds or less, and limbs must be cut, tied and bundled. Ask the permit office whether removing a large tree needs city approval, especially when it's part of a fence or addition project.
Texas law bars working within six feet of a high-voltage line without safety arrangements with the line operator, and work closer than that needs 48 hours' notice. In Friendswood that operator is CenterPoint or TNMP depending on the address. ISA Certified Arborist is a professional credential, and spraying trees for pests for hire needs a TDA license.
What tree service costs in Friendswood
HomeGuide's 2026 national figures put tree removal at $400 to $1,200 and trimming at $400 to $900 per tree; stump grinding runs $120 to $400 for the first stump. Tree work is taxable in Texas, so sales tax goes on the bill.
Before hurricane season, trim limbs over the roof and check the Friendswood roofers page for the windstorm rules. See the Texas tree service guide and the Friendswood local guide.
