Meet Jeff Hempel — ISA-Certified Arborist in Round Rock
Jeff didn't get into tree care to run a company from behind a desk. He got into it because he genuinely cares about trees: understanding how they grow, what threatens them, and how to keep them healthy for the long term. As one of only a handful of ISA-Certified Arborists in Round Rock, Jeff brings over 15 years of hands-on experience across residential, commercial, and municipal projects throughout Central Texas.
Jeff holds ISA Certification, the industry's recognized standard for professional arborists. In plain terms, that means when he looks at your tree, he's not guessing. He's evaluating structure, health, and risk using established, evidence-based methods. It also means he'll tell you honestly what a tree needs, even if that answer is less work than you expected, or more.

What ISA Certification Actually Means for You
Many tree companies will send a crew and a chainsaw. A certified arborist brings a different level of assessment to the job. One that considers the long-term health of the tree, the safety of your property, and the right technique for the situation. For homeowners, that means fewer problems down the road. For commercial clients, it means documented expertise and accountability on every project.
Your Certified Arborist Oversees Every Single Job
This isn't a company where the owner takes your call, writes up a quote, and hands the job off to anyone with a chainsaw. Jeff assesses every project and guides our highly trained team, ensuring everything is done to our highest standards before the crew packs up and leaves.
Our clients notice. Reviewers consistently mention that Jeff walked the yard with them, explained what we were doing and why, took the time to answer every question without rushing, and made sure they were fully satisfied before calling the job complete.
That level of involvement isn't the norm in this industry.
At Leaf Tree Services, it's simply how we do things.
The Team
Behind Jeff is a crew that shows up in blue shirts and helmets, works hard, and takes the job seriously. They're trained to follow proper technique on every cut, not just get through the work quickly.
This is why our reviewers regularly mention our crew's professionalism, work ethic, and their practice of leaving every property cleaner than they found it. When we leave, the debris is gone, your yard is tidy, and our work speaks for itself.
What Our Clients Are Saying
Someone gets back to you promptly
We'll walk your property and assess your needs

The crew arrives on time, completes the work correctly, and cleans up before they leave
If anything comes up during the job, we communicate it directly to you — no surprises.
It's a straightforward process because that's how we prefer to run things. We’ve been doing it this way since 2015, and it's the main reason why so many of their clients come back and send their neighbors.
