Friendswood's Tree Service Expert

Eric Putnam, BCMA - Friendswood's Trusted Arborist

A mature tree can be one of the best parts of your property, but it can also leave you with questions. Does that branch over the house need to go? Is the thinning canopy a sign of trouble? Eric Putnam BCMA Inc. provides tree removal, trimming and pruning, post-storm tree care, tree health care, and arborist consultations in Friendswood. Our team is led by Eric Putnam, an ISA Board Certified Master Arborist, and we help you understand what your trees need before deciding on the work.

Removing a large tree takes planning, especially when branches extend over a house or there’s limited access to the backyard. We assess the tree’s condition, the space around it, and how to complete the removal with nearby structures and landscaping in mind. Dead trees, severe decay, and storm damage are some of the reasons removal may be recommended, but a concerning tree doesn’t always need to come down. We explain whether pruning or treatment is a reasonable option, and when removal is the right choice, we walk you through the scope of the job and what’s included.

For trees you’re keeping, proper pruning can remove deadwood, provide roof clearance, and improve branch structure. If a tree is losing leaves or declining, our tree health care starts with looking for the cause, including root problems, soil conditions, and pest activity. We also provide post-storm tree care to assess damaged trees and determine whether they need pruning, further care, or removal.
