Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Baton Rouge tree service
Tree removal, trimming, storm cleanup, and lot clearing for Baton Rouge homes and businesses — from Bayou Boyz, serving the Capital Region since 2008.
Tree work for Baton Rouge properties
Baton Rouge is a city of big trees. Live oaks shade older neighborhoods from Mid City to the Garden District, pines tower over subdivisions south of I-10, and water oaks and tallows fill in anything left alone for a few seasons. Those trees are a big part of what makes the city feel like home — and when one becomes a problem, it tends to be a big problem.
Bayou Boyz Tree Service has been helping Baton Rouge property owners with those problems since 2008: trees leaning over houses, limbs scraping roofs, storm damage after a summer squall or a hurricane, and lots that need clearing before a build or a fence can go in.

Common Baton Rouge tree problems
Oaks over the house
Mature live oaks and water oaks often spread long limbs across roofs and driveways. Many can be kept with trimming for clearance; others — especially water oaks with decay at the base or in the trunk — may need to come down before they come down on their own.
Pines after a storm
Tall pines catch wind. After strong storms, it’s common to see snapped tops, hung-up limbs, and pines leaning that weren’t leaning before. Those should be looked at quickly; a pine with a new lean and heaving soil at the base is a warning sign.
Overgrown lots and fence lines
Privet, tallow, vines, and volunteer trees can swallow a back lot in a few years. Clearing them opens up the property, protects fences and outbuildings, and makes room for whatever comes next.
Before you schedule work
If your tree is near a street, sidewalk, or utility line, or your neighborhood has an HOA, it’s worth checking whether any approvals are needed before work begins. And if anything is touching an energized line, call the utility first.
Baton Rouge tree service FAQ
Do you serve all of Baton Rouge?
Yes — all of East Baton Rouge Parish, plus nearby communities like Central, Zachary, Denham Springs, Prairieville, and Gonzales. We also work statewide.
Can you handle a big live oak near my house?
Big trees near houses are what we do. Depending on the tree and the problem, that may mean trimming for clearance or taking it down in controlled sections. Send photos with your estimate request so we can plan.
Who handles trees touching power lines?
Lines from the pole to the street are typically handled by the electric utility — contact them first. For branches near the service line to your house, describe the situation in your request and we will tell you what we can safely do.
