"Richard did a fantastic, rapid, and fairly-priced job right after the North Dallas Tornado of '19. I paid him an unsolicited bonus because his work was just so far above the norm. I wish all contractors were like him."

Yes. ISA Certified Arborist Richard Lavery is on site usually performing the work himself. From your initial consultation to the execution of the job, your trees are in his hands. You are not handing your property to a sales team -- you are working directly with the certified professional who made tree care his priority.
Yes. Emergency tree removal is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Leatherface Tree Service is the only emergency tree removal company in DFW with 2 cranes available 24/7. When a storm-damaged tree threatens your property or family, we are here day or night.
Pricing is upfront and transparent. Our smaller operation means lower overhead -- and that savings passes directly to you. We avoid selling services you do not need, such as scheduled fertilization or unnecessary pruning. Larger companies with lots of overhead have to pay for their size somehow; we do not have that problem.
Yes. Oak wilt is a common problem in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. We use state-of-the-art arborjet technology to treat affected trees. Identifying the cause and severity of insect infestations and other common diseases in North Texas trees takes years of study and experience -- which Richard brings to every job.
