Why Deer Park Homeowners Call Gabby's Tree Service for Stump Removal
Gabby’s Tree Service handles residential stump removal in Deer Park, TX for homeowners across southeast Harris County and the East Houston Bay Area. Whether you have one stump left over from a tree that came down years ago, a yard full of stumps from a recent residential tree removal, or a single stump in the way of a pool, addition, or driveway expansion, Gabby’s Tree Service has the in-house crew and equipment to grind it out, haul off the debris, and leave your yard ready for whatever comes next.
Deer Park homeowners know what storm season does to a yard. After the EF3 tornado tore through downtown Deer Park on January 24, 2023, damaging neighborhoods near the skating rink off Center Street, and after Hurricane Beryl came through in July 2024 and uprooted oaks across Harris County, our crew worked through weeks of emergency calls. A lot of those jobs left stumps behind that homeowners just never got around to dealing with. Two years later, those same stumps are still sitting in Deer Park yards, attracting termites, tripping kids, and dulling mower blades.
Most older Deer Park subdivisions were built during the post-WWII boom in the 1950s and 1960s. Ranch-style homes in neighborhoods like Bayou Bend, Bentwood, Boston Terrace, Canterbury Place, Beverly Terrace, and the original Deer Park subdivision were planted with oaks, sweetgums, and pines that are now seventy years deep into Gulf Coast clay soil. When those trees come down, the stumps and root systems left behind are no joke. Gabby’s Tree Service has the equipment and experience to handle them properly.
Gabby’s Tree Service is a local family business based at 1915 Center Street, just down from the Theatre/Courts Building and the replica Patrick cabin marker that gave Deer Park its “Birthplace of Texas” title. We have been doing residential stump removal and tree care in Deer Park and the surrounding Bay Area for over 22 years. We never use subcontractors. The crew that shows up to your home is our crew, and we back every job with our Zero Property Damage Guarantee. Gabby’s Tree Service does not collect payment until the work is done and you are satisfied. Most of our customers tell us they did their own research before calling, and the reviews are what brought them to Gabby’s Tree Service. Learn more on our About Us page.
Stump Grinding for Deer Park Homeowners
Gabby’s Tree Service provides stump grinding for homeowners throughout Deer Park, Pasadena, La Porte, Baytown, and the surrounding East Houston Bay Area. For most residential yards in Deer Park, stump grinding is the practical and affordable choice. The grinder takes the stump down four to twelve inches below grade, the hole is filled with the resulting wood chips or fresh topsoil, and the spot is ready for grass seed, sod, or new landscaping within a day.
Deer Park sits in USDA Hardiness Zone 9a on heavy Gulf Coast clay. That clay swells when it rains and shrinks when it dries, which is why stumps in Deer Park yards often sit slightly proud of the lawn after a wet season and slightly sunken after a dry one. Our grinder accounts for that natural movement so the finished spot stays level. Our experienced in-house crew uses professional safety gear and equipment on every grinding job in Deer Park, and we work in tight residential spaces all the time, right next to fences, sprinkler heads, flower beds, and patios.
The crew protects every surface around the stump before the grinder runs. That is the practical side of our Zero Property Damage Guarantee. We plan the job before any equipment touches the ground in your Deer Park yard.
If you want the area replanted right after the grind, Gabby’s Tree Service can talk through soil and sod options during the free in-person estimate. If you also have one or more standing trees that need to come down before the stump can be ground, we handle residential tree removal in the same visit. One crew, one site, one upfront price.
Full Stump and Root Removal for Deer Park Yard Projects
Gabby’s Tree Service handles full stump and root removal for homeowners across Deer Park, Channelview, Galena Park, Webster, and the surrounding East Houston Bay Area. Sometimes grinding is not enough. If you are pouring a concrete slab over the spot, installing a pool, expanding a driveway, or building an addition where the foundation will sit on or near the old stump, the entire root ball needs to come out of the ground.
This is where Deer Park’s clay soil really matters. Grinding leaves the underground root mass intact, and on Gulf Coast clay that buried root system slowly decays over five to ten years. As the wood breaks down, the clay above it settles into the void. Under a regular lawn that movement is invisible. Under a slab, a foundation, or a driveway, that decay creates settling that can crack concrete and cost a Deer Park homeowner serious money down the line. Full stump and root removal solves that problem upfront.
Most pool, slab, addition, and driveway projects in Deer Park also fall under City Ordinance 3392, which requires building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, stormwater, or floodplain development permits depending on the scope. Gabby’s Tree Service does not pull the construction permit for your project, but our work has to leave the site clean enough for your contractor to pass inspection. We coordinate the timing so the stump is fully out before the slab pour, the pool dig, or the foundation work starts.
Gabby’s Tree Service brings the right equipment for the job, removes the entire stump and root ball, and leaves the ground structurally clean for whatever comes next. Full cleanup is included on every job. The hole is filled or left open based on what your project needs, and the property is spotless before our crew leaves. Pricing is upfront after a free in-person walk-through of the property, and Gabby’s Tree Service does not collect payment until the work is done. View completed projects in our gallery.
Stump Grind vs. Stump Removal vs. Chemical Dissolver
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding is the quickest and safest way to remove an eyesore from your lawn. Grinding a stump with machinery built for the job is almost always an Arborist’s preferred way of removing a dangerous stump from a lawn. Stump grinders can make quick work of a stump and chip the wood away, even down to the root ball, creating a fine mulch.
Stump Removal
Stump removal is the next most popular choice, as it allows you to replant where the tree used to be, though the larger root network will still be intact. Stump removal isn’t offered by all tree service providers, and we’ve been asked to remove stumps that other tree service providers 1Thankssaid were too big. The risk with a stump removal is slightly greater than a stump grind, as gas and water lines may be at risk when digging around a stump.
Chemically Dissolving Stumps
Chemically dissolving a root isn’t typically recommended, as it poses dangers to people, wildlife, and the groundwater it may come into contact with. We recommend going with either a stump grind or stump removal service, and Gabby’s Tree Service has the tools needed to perform each of those options safely, quickly, and cleanly.
Old and Leftover Stump Removal Across Deer Park Yards
Gabby’s Tree Service handles old and leftover stump removal for homeowners throughout Deer Park, Pearland, Friendswood, League City, and the surrounding Bay Area. A lot of the stump calls we get are not from recent tree work. They are from trees that came down five, ten, even fifteen years ago, where another company cut the tree and left the stump behind. Or a previous owner had the tree removed before the current homeowner moved in, and the stump just stayed in the yard ever since.
This is common in older Deer Park subdivisions like the original Deer Park plats, Bayou Bend, Asbury Gardens, and the Bennett Nina area, where homes have changed hands several times and tree work history goes back decades. Older stumps are often easier to grind than fresh ones. The wood has started to break down, the grinder works through it faster, and the cleanup is straightforward. Gabby’s Tree Service does not care who took the original tree down. We come out, give an honest assessment of the stump, and provide an upfront price to grind it out and clean up the area.
If you have multiple old stumps scattered across your Deer Park yard, our in-house crew can handle the whole batch in a single visit and price the full scope upfront. No nickel-and-dime per-stump pricing. No surprises after the crew is on-site.
Bulk Stump Removal for Deer Park Homeowners
Gabby’s Tree Service provides bulk stump removal for residential property owners across Deer Park, Seabrook, Nassau Bay, Taylor Lake Village, and the broader East Houston Bay Area. When you have five, ten, or twenty stumps that all need to come out, you do not want a crew that finds new “issues” mid-job and stretches the work into a multi-week situation.
Bulk stump removal in Deer Park works best when one crew walks the full property, prices the entire scope upfront, and works the job through start to finish. Gabby’s Tree Service operates that way on every multi-stump job. Our experienced in-house crew shows up, grinds or excavates every stump on the list, hauls everything off the property, and finishes with full cleanup before leaving.
This approach is especially useful for homeowners on larger lots in Deer Park ETJ areas off Spencer Highway, on acreage near the city’s eastern edge by Highway 146, and on properties that have been through multiple rounds of tree removal over the years. Gabby’s Tree Service treats every property like it is our own, and that means no shortcuts on a bulk job and no leaving a half-finished site.
Stump Removal After Storm Damage in Deer Park
Gabby’s Tree Service handles stump removal after storm damage for homeowners across Deer Park, Dickinson, Bacliff, Kemah, and the surrounding Bay Area. When Gulf Coast storms uproot or shatter trees, the cleanup often happens in two phases. First, the emergency tree removal gets the trunk and limbs off the structure, the fence, or the driveway. Then weeks or months later, the homeowner is finally ready to deal with the stump that is left behind.
After Hurricane Beryl in July 2024 and the EF3 tornado that hit downtown Deer Park on January 24, 2023, our crew worked through hundreds of emergency calls in subdivisions all along Center Street, X Street, and Pasadena Boulevard. A year later, we were still getting calls from homeowners who had finally settled their insurance claims and were ready to grind out the stumps left behind. Gabby’s Tree Service is happy to come back and finish the job whenever the timing works for the homeowner.
Storm-damaged stumps in Deer Park are sometimes more complicated than a routine grind. Uprooted trees can leave partial root balls hanging out of the ground, sections of trunk twisted into the soil, and root systems that pulled up sidewalk concrete or driveway slabs on the way out. On lots near drainage easements or city storm sewers, the work may also touch on stormwater permit requirements under Ordinance 3392. Gabby’s Tree Service walks the situation, plans the work, and gives an upfront price that accounts for the actual condition of the site.
Stump Removal for Landscaping and Lawn Restoration
Gabby’s Tree Service provides stump removal for landscaping and lawn restoration projects across Deer Park, Highlands, Crosby, and the surrounding East Houston Bay Area. Sometimes, a stump is the last thing standing between a Deer Park homeowner and the yard they actually want. The flower bed cannot go in until the stump is gone. The new sod will not lie flat. The mower keeps clipping the high spot every weekend.
For landscaping and lawn restoration, the work has to be precise. The grinder cannot tear up the surrounding lawn, and the crew has to leave the spot ready for the next phase, whether that is sod, mulch, or new plants. Our in-house crew has done this kind of work in mature Deer Park yards for over 22 years without scraping fences, flattening sprinkler lines, or leaving ruts across St. Augustine and Bermuda lawns.
When the stump is out, full cleanup is included on every job. The hole is filled, the area is raked clean, and the spot is ready for whatever the next step in the project is. Gabby’s Tree Service treats every yard like it is our own, and we do not leave a Deer Park homeowner with a half-finished site.
What to Expect on Stump Removal Day
Gabby’s Tree Service walks every Deer Park homeowner through the job before the crew starts. We show you exactly which stumps are coming out, how we plan to grind or excavate each one, and what we are doing to protect the surfaces and structures around the work. You will never stand in your Deer Park yard wondering what is happening or why.
Our in-house crew uses professional safety gear and equipment on every residential stump removal in Deer Park. We bring the right-sized grinder for the stump, plus protective equipment for fences, windows, and any nearby surfaces. The grinder runs, the chips are managed, and the area is raked, filled, and cleaned before we leave. Your yard looks better when Gabby’s Tree Service leaves than it did when we arrived. That is not a sales line. That is the standard the crew holds itself to on every job in Deer Park and across the Bay Area.
Gabby’s Tree Service does not ask for payment upfront. We collect after the job is complete and the homeowner is satisfied with the work. If anything looks different from what you expected, you tell us, and we address it before we close out the job. That is how Gabby’s Tree Service has built its reputation in Deer Park over 22 years.
Local Knowledge That Matters for Stump Removal in Deer Park
Gabby’s Tree Service has been operating in Deer Park, TX, for over 22 years, and a lot of what has been learned about residential stump removal is specific to this city. Here is what every Deer Park homeowner should know before hiring any crew.
City Ordinance 3392 and the $500 fine. Anyone working inside Deer Park city limits on a property that is not their primary residence is required to pull the appropriate permits. Operators caught working without the right paperwork face a $500 investigation fee, a triple permit fee, and a $150 license fee. Gabby’s Tree Service operates fully licensed and insured and follows the city’s permit framework on every Deer Park residential job that requires it.
HOA-governed subdivisions inside city limits. Deer Park itself does not regulate ornamental tree removal, but several subdivisions inside the city — including parts of Bayou Bend, Bentwood, Canterbury Place, Villages of Deer Park, and Crestwood — have their own deed restrictions and HOA approval processes. Before any stump comes out of the ground, do your own research with your HOA. Gabby’s Tree Service will work within whatever your HOA documentation requires.
Stormwater and floodplain considerations. Properties along Patrick Bayou, near the Houston Ship Channel, and in older sections built before the modern drainage code can sit inside floodplain zones. For full root ball excavation on those lots, stormwater or floodplain development permits may be required under Ordinance 3392. Gabby’s Tree Service walks the site and points out anything that needs attention before the work starts.
Industrial corridor utility lines. Deer Park sits at the heart of the petrochemical corridor along Highway 225, with Shell, Pemex, and Dow plants ringing the city. That means a lot of the buried utility lines running through residential neighborhoods are older, and the as-built records are not always perfect. Gabby’s Tree Service always recommends a free 811 Texas dig request before any full root excavation on Deer Park residential property, especially in older sections off Spencer, Center, and X Street.
Gulf Coast clay and root depth. Mature oaks, pecans, sweetgums, and pines in Deer Park yards drop roots six to ten feet into Gulf Coast clay. Surface grinding handles the visible stump but does not touch the deep root mass. Gabby’s Tree Service walks Deer Park homeowners through which jobs need a deeper grind, which need full excavation, and which can simply be ground at the surface — with honest, transparent advice on each one.

These guys did such an amazing job !! I felt very comfortable and confident in the service I was getting from the beginning to the end. Their clean-up work is spectacular. Honestly I could not leave a good enough review for my experience with their service. I recommend 10 out of 10.
We had our tree trimmed by Gabby's Tree Service today, and we couldn't be happier with the results. I was a little nervous going into it, but the team at Gabby's Tree Service really listened to what we wanted and took the time to ease my concerns throughout the process. They did an excellent job, and our tree looks healthy, balanced, and natural.
Their pricing was very fair, especially considering the amount of work involved and the fact that they hauled away all the debris afterward. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for professional, reliable tree care!
I had a large tree limb break off that was blocking the sidewalk and half the road. They came out Sunday afternoon on July 4th weekend to get it taken care of for me. The price was very reasonable for an emergency callout. I will be using them again when I'm ready to cut the whole tree down.
I called on Monday, they came Tuesday to give me an estimate. And Friday the downed trees from lightning strikes were gone, area clean so I can use my lawn mower. Happy with the device 👍
I can't say thank you enough for the tree trimming you did today. Nick and his brothers did a beautiful job on my tree and I highly recommend them. Cleaned up everything and they are professionals at what they do.
Great experience with Gabby's Tree Service!They safely took down a few trees, large branches and cleared out the brush. Everything was done really well.
They came out the very next day after the quote, which I appreciated, and were super easy to work with when I added a few more things to the job—pricing stayed very reasonable. Everyone was very professional and nice.
Would definitely use them again!
The work has been as close to perfect as possible in this kind of work. I've been a client for 15 years and have no intention of changing. The people are patient, considerate, extremely knowledgeable, and caring for both the vegetation and me. The prices are fair.
Gabbys tree service did an amazing job cutting down a large tree sitting infront of my house. They were very professional and cleaned up very well afterwards. Highly recommend!
These guys are absolutely up front and honest. Didn't try to add extras or anything. They also cleaned up every single tree limb from my yard too! I am so thankful I found them. My tree looks perfect! The brothers were so cordial as well. You will NOT regret calling them! No need to look anywhere else. They truly are trustworthy and I will call them in the future I can guarandamnte ya!
I have used Gabby's Tree Service multiple times for tree trimming and smaller pruning services. Gabby and crew are top notch from initial to end...communication, experienced advice, scheduling, fair pricing, quality work, and thorough clean up. It was so nice pulling into my driveway today to see the beautiful work on my oak tree as well as no mess left behind. As always, thank you!!
We have used Gabby's Tree Service several times for everything from tree trimming, removal of bushes and tree stumps around our property.
Gabby and his team are always very friendly and informative about their schedule, especially since a lot fo their work is dependent on weather conditions.
Their work is always done with the highest quality and standards.
Their prices are very reasonable as well.
I would recommend these guys to anyone, they always do an awesome job.
I have used this company 3 times for various tree removal and trimming projects. They are super professional, knowledgeable and efficient. They will always be my go to. I highly recommend them
We had a great experience! They did a wonderful job on cleaning up and shaping our trees. Good communication, a friendly team, and a great price sums up our experience.
Had 3 trees down. Called yesterday and the trees are already gone! They cleaned up way more than I expected them to. There isn't even a twig left in the yard. Prices were fair. Thoroughly recommend!
I called Gabby's Tree Service for an estimate. On Friday, they came out, looked at the tree, surrounding area and gave me a VERY reasonable estimate. I agreed and they came out Monday. Team went right to work (no phones, no messaging!!!). Within 20 minutes my tree was gone, all branches, etc., hauled off, yard clean!! I was so impressed with the efficiency, the professionalism of this company. I highly recommend them!!!!
These guys did a great job start to finish. No shortcuts. Trimmed the trees, cleaned up everything and hauled everything away. Nicolas was extremely easy to communicate with and professional.
Needed two trees to be straighten due Beryl’s heavy winds. Gabby’s Tree Service did a great job to plumb the trees. I highly recommend Gabby’s Tree Service.
Gabby’s removed a large tree and trimmed back another tree in my front yard. They were very professional and made it a quick and easy process. Will be using them again for any future needs and highly recommend to anyone needing a tree service.
I needed tree trimmed after Hurricane Beryl . This is my second experience using Gabby’s Trees. Gabby the owner came by to examine the tree and give me and estimate . Nick and his crew did a very good job trimming my very large tree in my front yard way back . There were several large dead limbs hanging from the Hurricane . They removed all the debri and cleaned up well . I feel much much safer now about future wind damage. Thank you
I would definitely use Gabby again if needed .
Exceptional service. Great team. Quick response time. Very thorough clean up. Even cleaned everything that fell in the pool. Will only use Gabby's for tree service.
Gabby's Tree Trimming offers competitive pricing and exceptional service. Despite the overall good health of my 80+ year old pecan tree, several branches were damaged by Hurricane Beryl. Gabby prioritized raising and pruning my tree, along with other critical jobs after the storm, to prevent further damage. The entire crew was courteous and efficient, from Nick, who provided the initial quote, to Ryan, who explained the process in detail on the day of the tree trimming. I regret not remembering the names of the other crew members, but the taller individual was particularly attentive, addressing my concerns effectively. They demonstrated remarkable attention to detail during the cleanup, carefully stacking the debris to prevent leaves from washing into the sewer drain. Additionally, they went above and beyond by trimming a branch from my Magnolia tree that was encroaching on my house. While this service was not included in the original quote, I appreciated Ryan's willingness to take care of it while on-site.
Great customer service! Was able to remediate my tree issue in the timeliest manner. I would highly recommend this company and will use them again in the future!
Most professional crew! Guys did a fantastic job at all levels. Extremely courteous and polite team of experts! Highly recommend you experience the same treatment.
Gabbys did a wonderful job on our trees, explained what they were doing, cleaned up everything and were extremely friendly and courteous! I will definitely call them for any future tree services
Did a wonderful job. Was quick, friendly, and easy all around! Thank yall for helping us trim our tree before we get a strong storm. :) definitely will use them again and would recommend.
I have used Gabby's Tree Service for multiple jobs. They are always professional. Remove all debris from my property. They do excellent work. He will tell you exactly how much the job is prior to beginning. They will work with your schedule and only accept payment when the job is satisfactorily completed. They have removed the debris from the tornando, trees, and grind the tree stumps as well.
Quality work and always professional!! Gabby and his crew do fantastic work and leave the jobsite spotless! They do a great job of trimming the trees as well as removing trees and clean up the work area and leave everything immaculate! Can't recommend them enough! Their work is EXCELLENT!!
Very quick response time. Came the same day I called them for an estimate. Gave me a very fair price to cut down a very tall rotten tree. A couple of days later the tree was down, nothing left behind and area was cleaned. 100% recommended
Nick and his crew did a great job taking down a tree in my front yard. Communication was good and the work was done quickly and neatly. I recommend them highly.
They offer haul off service but I got a discount as I asked that it be piled next to the street for the city to pick up.
In a moment of distress and unpredictable weather Gabby’s Tree Service was able to come to my home, view damages, quote me, and complete the task all in a timely manner. They were also very responsive to all my questions and great communication. Definitely will use their services again.
This was a new company for me to use and I am extremely pleased. Gabby‘s crew came out. Did the work they quoted and cleaned up everything nicely. Super professional group with fair pricing.
I'd give these guys 10 stars if I could. I had a tree trimmed that was hanging over my house, and you could tell all the guys were professionals. Cost was less than competitors, work was completed very quickly, and not even one leaf was left behind. I would recommend them to anyone in the area. Thank you!
I highly recommend Gabby's Tree Service! Today was the second time I've had them trim trees on my property. Nick and his team did an awesome job! They were very professional and made sure everything was cleaned up when they were done.
Today Jan 30 we had our water oak tree remove and i am soo soo impressed with the work of Gabbys Tree Services Nick and the his awesome team.They clean while they work on the tree. We were about to have stump remove really soon. Great job Gabbys Tree Services. I am super duper recommending this company to everybody. Our yard was very very clean cuz they clean everything.
So happy with the work Gabby’s Tree Service did for me. The company I had used for years left the area and I kept interviewing. Gabby’s was the only company that said they would work with me and get my approval on any of the larger limbs that had to be removed — most will not agree to do this because of the extra time involved — my trees by the time I contracted with them really needed quite a bit of trimming. They were very efficient and the work was accomplished in a minimum of time. My trees have never looked so good — I definitely intend to be a repeat customer.
Gabby's tree service is easy to connect with, provides a quote in a timely manner, and schedules very quickly.
I reached out for a quote over the weekend and Nick and his team was here on Tuesday morning, right on time, to trim and clean up our front yard tree.
Thanks again!
Gabby's tree service removed a 20 foot +tree in our backyard yesterday. What an amazing,talented, group of workers. The tree was surrounded on 2 sides with a 6foot privacy fence. They cut down the entire tree without 1 branch falling on the fence . It took 5 workers lees then 2 hours to complete the job. They put the branches and logs in their woodchopper. Raked fallen leaves. The yard is beautiful . Thank you Gabby's .Had Gabby's Tree Service come out again ,last Wednesday,April 1,2026 to trim a large tree next to an abandoned house,with many branches hanging over our side of the house. They were able to trim all branches without one falling on the privacy fence which is within 1 foot of the fence. Professional,fast, and woodchip all waste. Raked area also . They are not inexpensive,but are willing to tackle the challenging trees with expertise. Thank you again Gabby
Really awesome people, Gabby came out on a Monday to give me a bid for my tree removal. It was in a tight spot between an electrical box and a fence as well as being very close to the house. Gabby and his crew were out the very next morning and felled the tree perfectly without damaging any of its surroundings. Truly professional and I will be using them again in the future.
I called Gabby’s Tree Service to see about having them trim my oak tree. They came out and trimmed my tree thinning it out and getting off of my roof. The guys did a really good with the tree and it looks great. Thanks a lot for taking care of it and making it look great. It was well overdue for a haircut.
Harry R.
Gabby’s Tree Service did an excellent job! The job consisted of cutting down our 46 year old Oak Tree. Gabby and his team were very professional and knew exactly what the job required. All debris was removed and left the yard clean. Gabby has done work for us for years and this was his biggest challenge! He did an excellent job and would highly recommend him.
The team was great! We had two huge and sadly dead palm trees, they removed them for us so expertly and hauled off any trace of them. We really appreciate it!
I have used Gabby’s tree service several times over the year for my huge oak tree. They always do a great job and clean up all the mess. They raised the canopy and it looks great!
The customer service and responsive time are excellent. This is our second time using Gabby's Tree Service. Small business with excellent quality and professional work completed.
Nick and his crew were trimming my neighbors tree. I was impressed with the job they were doing so I walked down and had Nick come take a look at my very large live oak tree. They gave me a fair price and were able to do the job the same day. Nino and Orlando walk through the treetops pruning out dead in sick limbs and it’s worth the money just to watch them! Job well done guys and I’ll see you next year for maintenance. Thanks again!
I did get several quotes and Gabby’s was the best. I was not home when they came to work, and they left no evidence (besides the trimmed tree) that they had been there. Everything was cleaned up and branches were removed from my property. Friendly and professional communication by phone.
Gabby's Tree Service was great. They showed up on time, removed the tree, had the stump grounded, and removed all of the debris, as promised. I would highly recommend this company.
I needed three trees raised and cleaned. They were responsive and communicated well. The crew was professional and thorough. I would recommend Gabby’s Tree Service.
The Gabby’s crew worked quickly and efficiently. Although working around thunderstorms, the guys cleaned up before they left each day. My trees look amazing, and I couldn’t be happier. My yard is actually cleaner than when the work started!
During Hurricane Nicholas, our neighbors Bradford Pear tree split, partially landing on our garage. Gabby’s Tree Service came out within a couple of days, took down the broken limb and raked up and blew the leaves, leaving our yard looking great. I appreciated the extra effort the made to clean up.
I highly recommend Gabby’s Tree Service. We used them for trimming and pruning and could not be more happy. Very fair price and quality work. They went over and above on cleaning after the job was completed(yard, driveway, sidewalk). Business card stuck on my refrigerator for the next time I need them. 🙂
We've needed tree help several times in the last few years and we always end up using Gabby's Tree Service. They are professional, honest, and very good at what they do.
Very pleased, quote was fair, they showed up when they said they would, had the right equipment and did a fantastic job. They even picked up smaller debris by hand and raked the leaves. I would recommend them to anyone.
Gabby’s Tree Service came right away when a huge tree in took out a power line and caused a dangerous situation right by our house. These efficient experts with excellent customer service removed this enormous hazard safely just in time to give us piece of mind before the next storm came in.
Gabby’s Tree Service did an excellent job removing my three palm tree stumps! The price was very reasonable and Nick was great at updating when his team was expected to be out for the job. He even did my quote with some pictures I texted him. He also texted me to confirm if the job was completed. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend giving them a call for your next tree service job!
Gabby's Tree Service did an incredible job trimming the neighbors tree that was hanging into our yard, they cleaned up beautifully before they left, didn't leave any random leaves or branches from the tree laying around. The service was quick and the pricing was very fair. The personnel were super professional and explained what they were doing and before they finished, asked if this is what I wanted. They did the exact job I had hoped for. Will definitely be using them and recommending them for any type of tree services in the future. Thanks Gabby, awesome Job from your crew!
The tree removal crew was very efficient and respectful of our property. The tree was enormous and they climbed it with ease. All the large branches and tree stump pieces were lowered to the ground with care. They continually blew off the waste and left the yard clean.
The stump removal team worked tirelessly to get all the big roots out of the lawn and then took out the stump completely.
We highly recommend their service and will tell all of our friends to use this company.
They did a great job on my two oak trees in the front yard. I handled pretty much everything through their website and text messages which I liked. Good value, Good crew and Great cleanup and most importantly they showed up when they said they would.

Gabbys Tree Service did a phenomenal job removing a tree that was really close to my home . They roped off all the pieces and left no mess what so ever! Highly recommend this hard working crew.
Gabby’s Tree Service is an excellent company. When I contacted the company, Nick came out the same day and is very knowledgable. He scheduled his crew to come the next day and gave me a very good, affordable quote. They did an awesome job! The staff is hard-working, efficient, and very friendly. I will definitely be using them again and would recommend them to anyone.
When I contacted Gabby's Tree Service I was able to get in touch with someone immediately & placed on their schedule right away. The consultation was quick, and I was given such a reasonable quote I didn't need to shop around. They came out early as promised, and provided a full crew to get the job done in a timely manner. Clean up was handled in a few short minutes and we are so pleased with the outcome! The service was outstanding the entire way. I couldn't be more grateful for the price. I would definitely call again, and I will gladly recommend Gabby's Tree Service to anyone!
I had an old dead tree fall on my fence and I called them and they quickly responded and gave me an estimate and fixed the problem all in the same day. Great folks to call when you need your tree trimmed - they did that for me a couple years ago and did a great job!
Gabby was very responsive when requesting a quote, and his team showed up exactly when he said they would. They cleared the trees and trimmed my older ash trees perfectly without covering my front yard in tree limbs for pick up. They bring their own chipper with them, and the workmanship was just stellar. I fully recommend using Gabby's Tree Service. Great price and service.
Gabby's Tree Service trimmed a tree in the front of my home and did an excellent job! I will definitely be using them again and highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed. Awesome service and friendly staff. 10/10
Gabby's trees does a great job. I had them cut out a huge oak tree I needed gone and they were excellent. Also have them come and trim and thin the canopy of my oak tree every few years. Highly recommend might be a wait if they are busy but it's worth waiting.
Called for tree to be cut down as it was damaging my roof. They fit me in and cut it down the next day. Quality work, professional and had proper equipment to do the job. Very fast. Will call again
Very knowledgeable. Fair priced, dependable, does quality work. Will go out of their way for customer satisfaction. Gabby got this huge stump removed from front yard when multiple others backed off. They are extremely resourceful. Got my vote for sure.
Extremely happy with the response I received when I inquired about the service. Gabby came out and went over what his service would do with my trees. The raising and cleaning out of my trees met all my expectations. I will use this service if needed in the future.
These guys are friendly and prompt and did a great job for us! They have corrected the errors of previous trimmers to leave a much better shaped, beautiful old Oak! Other than our tree looking so much better, you couldn't tell they'd been there as they cleaned up completely. We highly recommend!
These guys did a great job, and were very respectful of our home and yard. They were also very good at cleaning up afterwards. You couldn't even tell they had been there, except that our trees were well manicured. Will definitely recommend them to anyone who needs their trees trimmed.
Son Nick came out to give me an estimate on my oak tree. Listened well to my request. Work was done while I was away, as requested. Very reasonable price, lower than I expected. Hauled everything away and did not damage 1 single flower in the beds. EXTREMELY HAPPY.
How much does it cost to remove a stump from my yard in Deer Park?
Gabby’s Tree Service prices every residential stump removal job in Deer Park based on a free in-person walk of the property. The cost depends on the stump’s diameter, the species, the access for equipment, how deep the grind needs to go, and whether you want a basic grind or full root ball excavation. A small stump in an open yard off Spencer Highway costs less than a large oak stump tucked behind a fence line in older Bayou Bend. Gabby’s Tree Service does not estimate from photos or phone descriptions because Gulf Coast clay and access conditions in Deer Park yards vary too much for that to be accurate. You get one clear upfront number before any work begins, and that is the number on the final bill.
What is the difference between stump grinding and full stump removal?
Stump grinding takes the stump down four to twelve inches below grade with a grinder, fills the hole, and leaves the area ready for grass, sod, or landscaping. Full stump removal pulls the entire stump and root ball out of the ground. For most residential yards in Deer Park, grinding is the right call. For pool installs, slabs, driveways, and additions, full removal is usually what the project needs because the buried root mass will decay and settle under Deer Park’s heavy clay soil over time. Gabby’s Tree Service walks both options with you during the free in-person estimate so you can pick what fits the project.
Do I need a permit for stump removal on private property in Deer Park, TX?
For most basic residential stump removal on private property in Deer Park, no city permit is required. The rules can be different for properties inside HOA-managed subdivisions like parts of Bayou Bend, Canterbury Place, and Villages of Deer Park, for lots near drainage easements or floodplain zones, and for any project where the stump removal is part of a slab, pool, or addition build that triggers City Ordinance 3392. Working inside Deer Park city limits without the right permits can hit a non-resident contractor with a $500 investigation fee. Gabby’s Tree Service is licensed and operates within whatever permitting framework your specific Deer Park project requires.
Do I need to be home when Gabby’s Tree Service comes to grind a stump?
For the estimate, yes. Gabby’s Tree Service does all estimates in person, so someone needs to be available to walk the Deer Park property and point out the stumps that need attention. For the actual grinding day, it helps to have someone home at the start so the crew can confirm access and any specific areas to be careful around, like an irrigation line or a flower bed. If you need to leave during the job, that is fine. Gabby’s Tree Service finishes the work and cleans up the yard before leaving.
How long does residential stump removal take in Deer Park?
Most single-stump residential grinds in Deer Park take a few hours from setup to full cleanup. Larger stumps, multi-stump properties, and full root ball excavations take longer and sometimes run a full day. Mature oaks and pecans in older subdivisions off Center Street and X Street tend to take longer than younger trees in newer plats off East Boulevard because of how deep the roots go in Gulf Coast clay. Gabby’s Tree Service tells you straight up during the free in-person estimate when the crew can be on-site and how long the work will take, so your day or your project schedule is not thrown off.
Can you grind a stump that is right next to my fence or my house?
Yes. Gabby’s Tree Service grinds stumps in tight residential spots all the time — right next to homes, garages, fences, sprinkler heads, and landscape beds across Deer Park and the surrounding Bay Area. The crew uses professional equipment, and the Zero Property Damage Guarantee covers the surfaces and structures around the stump. If irrigation lines, gas lines, or other utilities are at risk, Gabby’s Tree Service plans around them before the grinder runs and recommends a free 811 Texas dig request when the situation calls for it.
What happens to the wood chips after the stump is ground?
Gabby’s Tree Service handles the chips as part of full cleanup. Most Deer Park homeowners want everything hauled off the property, and that is included in the upfront price. If the chips work for the project — as backfill for the hole or as mulch for a landscape bed — they can be left on-site instead. Either way, the lawn around the stump is raked clean before the crew leaves, and your Deer Park yard is not left with a pile of chips and sawdust to deal with.
I have an old stump from a tree that came down years ago. Can you still grind it?
Yes. Gabby’s Tree Service handles old, leftover, and abandoned stumps across Deer Park, Pasadena, La Porte, Baytown, and the surrounding Bay Area — regardless of who took the original tree down. This comes up often in older Deer Park subdivisions like the original plats off Center Street, Asbury Gardens, and Bennett Nina, where trees came down decades ago and the stump just stayed. Older stumps are sometimes easier to grind because the wood has started to break down. Gabby’s Tree Service will give a clear upfront price and an honest recommendation on the best way to handle it during the free in-person estimate.
Can you grind multiple stumps in my yard in one visit?
Yes. Gabby’s Tree Service handles bulk residential stump removal in Deer Park and the East Houston Bay Area on a regular basis. If there are five, ten, or twenty stumps in the yard, the in-house crew walks the property, prices the full scope upfront, and works through the whole job in one visit when the schedule allows. This is common on larger lots in Deer Park ETJ areas off Spencer Highway and on acreage near Highway 146. No per-stump surprises and no add-on charges once the crew is on-site — and most multi-stump residential jobs in Deer Park finish in a day with the property spotless before the crew leaves.
