Start here

Most people call me about one of four things

Prices are on the page. I'd rather you know roughly what you're walking into than get a surprise at the end.

Haul-away is included with every job. If you want the logs kept back for firewood, tell me and my crew will stack them instead of chipping them.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Deadwood out, weight off the long limbs, clearance over the roof. Done right it makes the tree stronger, not just smaller.

Tree Removal

When it's genuinely done. I'd rather talk you out of this one if the tree can be saved.

Stump Grinding

Ground out after a removal, or that old one you've been mowing around for six years.

Hazardous Limbs & Storm Damage

Dead or broken limbs hanging over the house. This is the call to make sooner rather than later.

The jobs other people won't quote

No drop zone? That's the one I'm for

Plenty of trees can be felled in one piece by anyone with a saw. The ones that can't are where the money gets wasted — a tree over a roof, a pool, a fence you share with a neighbour, or a drive too narrow for the chipper. Every piece comes down tied in and lowered on a rope instead, which is hours rather than minutes, and it's why quotes on those jobs vary so wildly between companies.

You get a price before anything starts, haul-away included, and if I find something once I'm into it that changes the number, you hear it from me first.

What people say after I leave

★★★★★

I've used Ozark of Austin since 2018 at three different homes. The saws are always clean (super important), & his understanding of a wide variety of trees means the pruning helps the trees not just…

Olive Hendrix

★★★★★

Bramel and his team were great. They didn't just trim the trees, they ensured the trees were healthy and that the trim job was done right.

Kurt Peterson

★★★★★

Bramel loves what he does and that's apparent! Sculpts the tree as he prunes it. Also, as he's studied “Arbory” he offers helpful advice for the tree's health, too! I recommend.

Good time to get oak pruning done

We're outside the oak wilt window, so routine oak pruning is on the table right now — Texas A&M Forest Service's don't-prune window runs February 1 through June 30 each year, and we're clear of it until next February.

If it's a genuine hazard instead, that gets handled immediately any time of year, fewest cuts possible, every wound painted on the spot. Call (512) 546-3576 or read the whole thing first.

Who's showing up

Twelve years of Central Texas trees

I started Ozark of Austin in 2014 and I've been working trees out of Kyle ever since — live oaks, post oaks, pecans, and a great deal of cedar.

There's an ISA Certified Arborist on my crew and we're fully insured. Ask me for the certificate and I'll send it.

Taking a tree down where you are

What a removal costs and how it has to be done changes town to town — the access, the species, and whether your city wants a permit first. Find yours and you'll see what the job actually involves, roughly what it runs, and the local rule quoted from the code so nothing bites you afterwards.

Tell me what’s going on with your tree

The estimate is free and most jobs happen within days of it. Kyle, Buda, San Marcos, Austin, Dripping Springs, Wimberley, New Braunfels, Bastrop, Lockhart — anywhere inside 50 miles of Kyle.
