Safe, professional tree trimming, removals, stump grinding and emergency work from trained crews.
Corral Bros handles full tree service across Elgin, from trimming and removals to stump grinding, storm response, and new plantings. Plenty of Elgin properties, especially the rural homesteads along Highway 290 and older in-town lots, carry mature live oaks, post oaks, and cedar elms that need careful, knowledgeable work. We are a locally owned, family-built crew that treats big trees with the respect they deserve, keeping them healthy, safe, and clear of your house and lines.
Central Texas trees come with real concerns, and oak wilt is high on the list, so we prune oaks during the safe seasons and paint cuts to protect them. On sandier east-side ground, root systems behave differently than in the heavy clay elsewhere in Elgin, which affects removals and how new trees establish. Corral Bros is licensed and insured, works residential and commercial, and offers free on-site estimates usually within 48 hours. When storms roll through Bastrop County and drop a limb on your property, call (737) 404-9343.

We also provide tree service in these nearby communities:
Late winter dormancy (December to January) is the best time to trim most Central Texas trees, since cuts heal fast before spring growth. The key exception is oaks: avoid pruning oaks from February through June to prevent oak wilt, and paint every oak cut immediately, year-round.
Oak wilt is a deadly fungal disease that spreads through Central Texas oaks, often via beetles attracted to fresh cuts. Prevention is simple: do not prune oaks February through June, and paint all oak wounds with pruning sealer immediately in every season. Our crews follow these protocols on every job.
It varies with the tree's size, health, location, and whether we are trimming, removing, or grinding a stump. A small trim is a different job than taking down a large oak near a house. Corral Bros comes out to your Elgin property, assesses access and hazards, and gives you a free, no-obligation estimate, usually within 48 hours.
We prune Elgin oaks during the cooler, lower-risk months and avoid the active spring beetle season whenever possible, and we paint every cut to seal it. Oak wilt is a real threat to Central Texas live oaks and reds, so timing and clean cuts matter. We plan oak work around protecting your trees.
Yes. When Bastrop County storms drop limbs or topple trees onto your Elgin home, driveway, or fence, Corral Bros responds fast to clear hazards safely. Call (737) 404-9343 as soon as it is safe. We prioritize downed trees blocking access or threatening structures and people.
We can. After removing a tree we grind the stump below grade so you can replant, lay sod, or reclaim the space. On Elgin's clay-heavy lots, leaving a stump can also collect water and pests, so grinding it out keeps the area clean and usable.
