CenterPoint Energy employs degreed foresters to oversee tree trimming operations. We follow professional standards for trimming trees near power lines to provide safe and reliable electricity to homes and businesses throughout Houston.

Trees that grow close to our electric facilities and power lines will be trimmed by a professional tree trimming company under contract with CenterPoint Energy. Our current contractors include:

• ABC - www.abctree.com
• Asplundh Tree Expert Company – www.asplundh.com
• Davey – www.davey.com
• Trees Incorporated – www.treesinc.com

When we plan tree trimming, a contractor will place a door hanger with contact information on your door – unless immediate action is required or it is not obvious where to leave a card. If you contact the contractor, they will make an appointment with you to address your concerns before the work is done. Contact the contractor, rather than CenterPoint Energy, to set an appointment.
