We Are Honest About the Services You Need

The team at Leatherface Tree Service avoids selling you services you flat out don’t need. Larger companies with lots of overhead have to pay for their size somehow, and this usually involves offering you recurring services you don’t need like:

Tree Trimming

Trimming trees is both an art and a science. In order to make sure your trees are trimmed well you need a thorough understanding of what you’re telling the tree to do when you make each cut. This can’t be done correctly unless the person who knows how to do it is up there.

Untrimmed and intrusive trees can pose a physical threat to your property and its tenants. Our trimming and pruning services help you keep your property beautiful and safe throughout the year.

Tree Removal Service

Removing a tree can be a hard decision, especially mature ones. That’s why our certified arborist is here for you. If he can find a cost-effective way to keep the tree on your property, he will.

We will do everything in our power to provide you with all practical options, so you’re well informed and can make the right decision with regard to removing your tree.

Each tree is a complex puzzle to solve and our owner embraces the challenges, facing them head-on, with the equipment needed to handle your removal efficiently.

Insect and Disease Control

dentifying the cause and severity of insect infestations and other common diseases in the trees in North Texas takes years of study and experience. Sometimes, a routine pruning job leads to the discovery of signs that point to decay in the root system.

Oak wilt is another common problem in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Knowing when to prune and keeping an eye out for common symptoms is key to keeping your oaks healthy.

Once we determine your tree has oak wilt, we use state-of-the-art arborjet technology to treat the tree with desirable results.

100% Recommended
I would 100% recommend Richard and his crew for all tree maintenance and removal needs. He is a magician with a chainsaw and done a phenomenal job helping us maintain an old live oak that we consider the cornerstone of our front yard. He’s responsive (by text) and very reasonably priced for the services he provides.

Great Job After Storm
Used them after a storm split a large tree in the front yard. Quoted a reasonable price and showed up on time. Did a good job cutting the tree and removing the debris. Would recommend.

Conan K.
It was a perfect experience
Richard asked for photos, sent over a few pictures of the tree, he quickly quoted me and by the end of the day the tree was gone. He was incredibly precise and tidy. It was a perfect experience.

Ziek D.
I wish all contractors were like him
Richard, the owner/operator, did a fantastic, rapid, and fairly-priced job right after the North Dallas Tornado of '19. On-time, great work - so much so that I paid him an unsolicited bonus because his work was just so far above the norm in terms of quality and ease of interaction. I wish all contractors were like him. If he's available, use him.

Victor V.
I highly recommend Leatherface
Leatherface cut down our 50 plus year old pecan tree which had rotten from the inside. Despite the hot summer the team worked great and had it done within several hours. They also grinded out the stump. I highly recommend Leatherface.

Karolina J.
Incredibly professional and affordable
Richard cleared out many branches on our pecan tree so our front yard could get more sunlight. He also got rid of dead/dying branches that were in danger of falling on our roof or the neighbors'. He was incredibly professional and affordable.

Margaret K.
I highly recommend Richard and his team!
I've used them for two years and I can't tell you how impressed I was with their pricing (upfront and transparent), service (always responsive), and product (looks awesome).
