Local Tree Care in Hitchcock
Hitchcock has a lot of history for a small town. During World War II it was home to Naval Air Station Hitchcock, a Navy blimp base that patrolled the Gulf for submarines. Today it's a quiet Galveston County community along Highway 6, with town lots, larger rural properties and wetlands toward the bay.
Root Branch 'N' All is based nearby in Dickinson and has been working on Galveston County trees since 1992. Our crew is arborist-trained and safety-trained by a professional instructor, and we are OSHA-trained, so Hitchcock homeowners get professional tree work from a local family business.

Low Ground, Wet Soil and Wind
Much of Hitchcock is low and close to the bay's marshes and bayous. After heavy rain, clay soil stays wet for a long time, and wet soil can't hold roots as firmly. Add tropical storm winds and you get trees that lean, loosen or fall. These are the warning signs we look for on Hitchcock properties:
| Warning Sign | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Soil cracking or lifting on one side of the trunk | The root plate may be moving |
| A new or worsening lean | The tree may be losing its anchor |
| Mushrooms at the base | Possible root rot |
| Dead limbs in the upper canopy | Root or health problems, and a falling hazard |
| Bronzing palm fronds | Possible Lethal Bronzing |
Clearing Overgrown Lots and Fence Lines
Larger Hitchcock properties tend to collect brush, volunteer trees and storm debris along fences and back corners. We can clear it out, remove unwanted trees and chip everything into mulch. Keep the mulch for landscaping or have us haul it away; it's your choice. See brush chipping.
Palms and Lethal Bronzing in Hitchcock
Lethal Bronzing has been spreading in Galveston County, and palms in Hitchcock aren't immune. If your palm's lower fronds are turning reddish-bronze and the color is moving upward, or the spear leaf in the center has collapsed, have it checked. Infected palms can't be saved and can spread the disease, so prompt, careful removal protects the palms around you.
When Storms Hit
Hitchcock sits in the path of storms coming off the Gulf. When trees come down on homes, sheds, fences or across the driveway, our emergency tree service is available 24/7. We'll make it safe, remove the tree without causing more damage and clear the debris.
