Lamar sits under some of the most majestic live oaks on the Texas coast, ancient trees that tower over the homes near Goose Island State Park and define the character of this quiet Aransas County neighborhood. These heritage oaks are worth protecting, and they need experienced hands to stay healthy and safe.
Homeowners in Lamar (78382) call Corpus Christi Tree Service when their big native oaks need trimming, when storm damage threatens a roof or power line, or when a dead tree has to come down. We know these trees, we know the neighborhood, and we know how to work around the tight lots, overhead utilities, and protected species that make tree work in Lamar different from anywhere else in the area.
Tree Service in Lamar (78382)
Lamar's canopy is anchored by wind-sculpted live oaks, the same species that have stood for a century or more in yards throughout this coastal oak motte. You'll also find Mexican fan palms, sabal palms, mesquite, cedar elm, and crape myrtles scattered across residential properties. The terrain is flat coastal prairie with sandy soils, but the real challenge isn't elevation, it's the constant southeast wind off the Gulf and the salt-laden air that stress trees and create hazardous limbs hanging over homes, vehicles, and power lines.
Our team has trimmed and removed hundreds of trees across Lamar and the surrounding Corpus Christi area. We understand the root systems in sandy soil, we know how to prune heritage oaks without triggering disease, and we're experienced in working around the overhead utility lines that run along alleys and rear lot lines throughout the neighborhood. When a tree fails, it often fails from wind damage or decay at the top, and we've responded to plenty of emergency calls after coastal storms knock down limbs or entire trees onto structures.

How a Job Works in Lamar
We start with a free on-site estimate. Call us at (361) 738-5322 or contact us online, and we'll visit your property, assess the tree or trees in question, identify any hazards or complications (overhead lines, proximity to your home or a neighbor's property, soil conditions, species and health), and give you a clear price and timeline. We'll answer your questions about permits, HOA approval, or any local rules that apply.
When we're on the job, we bring the right equipment for Lamar's tight residential lots. We use bucket trucks, cranes, rigging, and hand tools to remove trees safely and efficiently, and we coordinate with utility companies if power lines are involved. For trimming and pruning, especially on heritage oaks, our experienced arborists use proven techniques to improve structure, remove dead wood, and reduce wind load without damaging the tree. We grind stumps on-site so you don't have to deal with regrowth or a hazard in your yard.
We haul away all debris, chip branches, and leave your property clean and safe. You'll see the difference when we're done.
Tree removal in Lamar typically runs from a few hundred dollars for a small tree to several thousand for a large, established oak with complex access or proximity to structures. Trimming and pruning of heritage oaks usually starts around $250 and scales with tree size and the amount of work. Stump grinding begins at $150 per stump. Emergency tree removal after storm damage is priced the same way, and we respond quickly to calls for hazardous limbs or fallen trees. The biggest cost factors are tree size and species, accessibility (tight lot, overhead lines, neighbors' property), whether the tree is healthy or dead, and debris volume. Call us at (361) 738-5322 for a free estimate on any job, and we'll walk you through the price before we start work.
