With spring approaching, your yard is about to come alive. But healthy trees, lush grass and pest-free spaces don’t happen on their own—Joshua Tree Experts is here to help.
Launching the newest Houston area franchise in the spring of 2026’ the Joshua Tree team of tree, landscape and pest control experts is eager to help your yard become the envy of the neighborhood.
Meet the experts behind the healthiest yards
Founded in eastern Pennsylvania in 2005 by entrepreneur Joshua Malik, the brand has blossomed to 24 franchises nationwide by following closely to Josh’s mission to make home environments safe, healthy, and beautiful in every community we touch.
The newest Houston area franchise is led by general manager Eddie Shalkey III. A hands-on leader with nearly 20 years of sports turf, landscape maintenance and arboriculture experience. Similar to Joshua Tree Experts’ founding location, the Fort Bend/Cypress franchise remains a family oriented operation with Eddie bringing the same attention to detail, commitment to quality and compassion towards customer service that helped make Joshua Tree Experts the trusted name it has grown to today.
Joshua Tree Experts offers three core services—tree care, lawn care, pest control and mosquito control— each tailormade to help keep your property safe, healthy, and pest free.
Tree care: Preservation first
At Joshua Tree Experts, our tree care programs primarily focus on preservation.
“We only remove trees when absolutely necessary,” Eddie said. “Every preserved tree is an investment that will add value to any property for many years to come.”
- Tree trimming, pruning and preservation
- Tree Removals
- Soil care, fertilization and insect and disease management
- Storm remediation – Emergency trimming and removals
- Cabling, bracing and structural assessments
- Stump grinding and debris disposal
Joshua Tree Experts utilizes an integrated pest management program to assess each tree’s environment before applying any fertilizer or pesticide. This helps ensure treatments are focused on a property’s specific needs resulting in safe and effective applications. Capturing soil and water tests and reviewing results directly with customers allows the Joshua Tree Expert team to provide scientific, thoughtful solutions for any property and is fundamentally designed to protect one of your property’s most valuable assets.
Lawn care and pest control: Healthy yards start here
Joshua Tree Experts helps ensure your lawn looks and feels its best, from vibrant lawns to pest-free outdoor spaces.

“Our goal is to keep lawns and outdoor spaces healthy, safe and thriving,” Shalkey said. “Every treatment is tailored to your property, so your yard looks great and stays that way all year.”

Spring yard work might seem simple, but Joshua Tree Experts emphasizes that experience matters. Licensed professionals undergo rigorous training and continued education through the Texas Department of Agriculture, giving them expertise in:
- Identifying plant health issues before they escalate to problems.
