- Land clearing
- Aesthetic preferences

What Are the Signs of a Sick Tree?
A sick or dying tree often exhibits visible signs that are easy to spot.
If you have a tree on your property, keep an eye out for the following:
- Discolored leaves
- Premature leaf drop
- Bark abnormalities (cracks, missing bark, etc.)
- Fungal growth on trunk or branches
- Dead or hanging branches
If you suspect your tree's health is failing, consult with one of our tree specialists. If our arborists determine the need for treatment or potential removal, it's best to book service promptly, as dying trees can compromise your property's safety.
Can You Save a Dying Tree?
While it may be possible to save a dying tree in some cases, the success rate depends on the underlying cause and how advanced the decline is. One of our arborists should assess your tree's condition and determine if remedial actions like pruning, pest management, or soil amendments could revive it.
However, if your tree is too far gone or has suffered irreversible damage, the safest solution may be to remove it before it becomes a hazard.
How Long Does It Take to Remove a Tree?
Tree removal is a tedious process that can go relatively quickly or take multiple hours. The timeframe depends on the tree's size, species, location, and accessibility-all these factors can be determined during an assessment.
Our professional crew can potentially remove small trees under 30 feet in a few hours. However, large trees over 60 feet situated near buildings or power lines may take a full day or more to remove using specialized equipment and techniques.
Our tree specialists can provide an accurate turnaround time to help you prepare your property for the removal process. Call us for an assessment if you suspect a tree needs removal.
When's the Best Time of Year to Plant Trees?
The optimal planting window is during the dormant season, which occurs in early spring or fall when trees aren't actively growing. Planting a tree during dormancy allows the root system to recover and establish itself before the hotter summer months.
Our arborists are well-versed in the local climate and can help you select climate-appropriate species for your property and ensure proper planting techniques for success.
Should Newly Planted Trees Be Staked?
Newly planted trees may require staking for the first year to hold the root ball firmly and prevent excessive movement until the roots can anchor the tree. In general, the necessity of staking is based on the tree's size and site conditions and should only be utilized when absolutely needed.
Improper or prolonged staking can be detrimental, so outsourcing the process to our professionals will ensure the job gets done correctly using the proper technique.
How to Determine the Best Trees to Plant in Your Yard
Choosing the right trees to plant in a Memorial yard requires considering the region's climate and soil conditions. Our arborists recommend selecting native species that are drought-tolerant and can withstand the area's hot summers, such as live oak, cedar elm, or Mexican plum.
Furthermore, the planting location's sun exposure, soil pH, drainage, and space constraints must also be evaluated. For example, fast-growing shade trees like red maple may thrive in larger yards, while compact ornamentals like Mexican redbud work better for smaller spaces. Properly matching the tree to the site increases its chances for healthy establishment and long-term growth.
Tree Maintenance and Revitalization
We remove trees when they run the risk of damaging a property, but we also believe in preserving trees whenever possible. Our tree revitalization services include tree cabling and bracing, which provide structural support to weakened or damaged trees, reducing the risk of breakage and prolonging their lifespan.
How Can a Tree Maintenance Plan Prolong Your Tree Health?
A customized tree maintenance plan developed by an arborist covers all aspects of care, pruning, fertilization, pest/disease management, cabling, and more. Following the plan's recommendations ensures taking proactive steps to maximize your tree's vitality and structural integrity over many years.
If you have a variety of tree species on your property and are unsure how to maintain each one, it's best to consult with one of our arborists to guarantee optimal results and growth for all.
When Is Tree Cabling and Bracing Beneficial?
Cabling and bracing provide supplemental support to trees with structural defects like codominant stems, weak branch unions, or existing cracks. They allow redistribution of stress and can prolong the tree's life span when you're unwilling to remove it entirely.
Our arborists can assess whether cabling is an appropriate solution and, if so, will review the process and ongoing maintenance with you.
Tree Trimming to Promote Healthy Growth
Tree trimming might make a tree look great—but that’s not the only benefit of this service. Our expert tree trimming and pruning services promote healthy growth, improve aesthetics, and mitigate potential hazards.
How Often Should Trees Be Trimmed?
Most mature trees benefit from professional trimming every three to five years to remove dead or overcrowded branches and promote healthy growth. Young trees require more frequent trimming, ideally on an annual basis, to develop proper structure. Factors like the tree species, age, and growth rate also influence ideal trimming frequency.
For best results, incorporate trimming into a maintenance plan that considers your tree's unique needs and characteristics.
Why Is Tree Trimming Important?
Regular professional trimming serves several important purposes, including the following:
- Improving the tree's structural integrity and form
- Removing dead, diseased, or hazardous limbs
- Allowing better airflow and light penetration through the canopy
- Managing growth and maintaining the desired size/shape
- Enhancing the tree's aesthetic formation
- Preventing disease and damage
- Extending the overall lifespan of the tree

What Do Tree Services Cost?
The cost of professional tree services depends on the type of service and the labor and time involved. Factors like the tree's height, diameter, species, and proximity to obstacles impact the cost of tree removals through increased complexity and risk. Additional services like stump grinding, cabling and bracing, plant health care applications, and emergency work can incur supplemental fees.
