How much does tree removal cost in San Antonio?

Tree removal in San Antonio typically costs between $450 and $850 on average, depending on the tree's size, location, and complexity. Large trees near structures or power lines can run $1,500–$3,000+. Call (210) 253-7777 for a free, no-obligation estimate.

How much does it cost to trim a tree in San Antonio?

Tree trimming in San Antonio ranges from $150 to $1,500 depending on the tree's height, canopy spread, and accessibility. Most homeowners pay $250–$700 for standard trimming. We offer free estimates — call (210) 253-7777.

Do you need a permit to remove a tree in San Antonio?

In most cases, you do not need a permit to remove a tree on private residential property in San Antonio. However, heritage trees (certain species over 24" diameter) are protected and may require approval from the city. Our team can help you determine if a permit is needed.

What is the difference between tree trimming and tree pruning?

Tree trimming focuses on cutting back overgrown branches to maintain shape and appearance. Tree pruning is more targeted — removing dead, diseased, or structurally weak branches to improve the tree's health and safety. Both services help keep your trees in top condition.

What months should you not trim trees?

In San Antonio, avoid pruning oak trees from February through June to prevent oak wilt disease. For most other species, late winter (January–February) is ideal for trimming. Our certified arborists can advise the best timing for your specific trees.

Do you provide 24/7 emergency tree removal?

Yes — we offer around-the-clock emergency tree removal in San Antonio. Fallen trees, storm damage, and hazardous limbs can't wait. Call (210) 253-7777 anytime for fast response.

How much do tree removal services charge per hour?

Most tree services in San Antonio charge per job, not per hour. Hourly rates, when used, typically range from $100–$300/hr for a crew. We provide flat-rate quotes upfront so there are no surprises — call us for a free estimate.

What areas do you serve?
