We Know Hondo

We work throughout Hondo and around local landmarks like US-90, downtown Hondo, Hondo Creek, and the famous 'This Is God's Country' sign.

A Hondo farmstead had a row of half-dead hackberries along the canal dropping limbs into the water; we cleared the line and left the healthy pecans, keeping the flow clear.

Understanding Hondo's Trees

Hondo, the Medina County seat, is farm-and-ranch country where the tree work follows the water. Irrigation canals and Hondo Creek support big pecans and canal-bank hardwoods that need maintenance to keep limbs out of the flow and the equipment lanes clear. Around town, aging pecans and hackberries drop storm limbs, and out on the surrounding farms, fencerow and homesite clearing is routine. The open country here takes the full force of spring storms rolling in off US-90, so hail and wind cleanup is a recurring part of the calendar.

For most Hondo properties, that points to a few core services: tree removal, land & lot clearing, and tree trimming & pruning.

Tree Care Tips for Hondo Properties

  • Keep canal and fence lines open

    Trees and brush along canals and fences need periodic clearing to keep access and water flowing.

  • Remove storm-damaged limbs promptly

    Broken pecan limbs left in the canopy can fall without warning.

  • Plant replacements well away from lines

    When replacing trees in town, choose spots clear of overhead power lines.

Tree Service FAQs — Hondo, TX

Do you clear trees along farm fences and canals around Hondo?
Yes. We clear brush, hackberry, and volunteer trees along fence lines and irrigation canals, chip or pile the material based on your preference, and can grind stumps where equipment needs to pass. We schedule Hondo-area jobs to make the drive efficient.
What tree problems are common in Hondo?
Storm damage to large pecans and hackberries is the most common — broken limbs, hangers, and the occasional uprooted tree after high winds. Older pecans also accumulate deadwood that should be removed before it falls on homes or vehicles.
Should I keep the hackberries around my Hondo home?
Healthy hackberries well away from the house can stay with regular deadwood pruning. Large ones with decay, cavities, or limbs over the roof break easily in wind and are usually worth removing. Hackberry resprouts from stumps, so grinding the stump helps keep it from coming back.
Do Hondo pecans need special care in drought?
Yes. Pecans use a lot of water. During long dry spells, deep watering every couple of weeks keeps them healthier and reduces limb and nut drop.
Can you trim trees along a Hondo ranch road?
Yes. We raise and thin limbs over ranch roads and gates for truck and trailer clearance, cutting back to proper branch points.
