"A Best Tree service does an A+ job EVERY TIME. I have been using them for at least 15 years to keep our shrubs trimmed and trees, including 3 Huge Red Oaks and a huge Pecan pruned and in good health. Jesus always returns my calls right away and usually will come by the next day to look at the job and give me a great price. I rarely make comments in this manner, but Jesus and his men deserve the praise!"

"The crew showed up on time and ready to get to work. After confirming what I wanted done - several trees trimmed, 3 removed, and stump grinding - the crew got busy. The three men on my job were friendly and professional. Once the work was complete they did an excellent job of cleaning up the property. Great experience!!!"

"I lost three big (25+ ft) Mexican Fan Palms to freezing temperatures two winters ago. Two of them were dead and within inches of my roof. The third was dead and located right in the corner of my yard, where my fence meets three other properties' fences. So the risk of removing all three trees without damage was extremely high. I heard about Longhorn Tree Service through word-of-mouth so I gave Tony a call. He responded quickly, gave me a fair and competitive estimate, and arrived on time for the job after I hired him. He and his crew expertly removed all three trees with no damage to my house or my fence. Literally, not a single scratch to any structure. Then, after the job was complete, they cleaned the yard of debris and raked up the loose trimmings. They left my yard and my grass in better condition than when they started. Very happy with this service! I recommend Tony to everyone looking for professional arborist services. He's an expert at his craft. I highly recommend Longhorn Tree Service."

"They are the best, from the first branches to the final clean up. Very safety conscious, they protected my deck and landscaping. They answered questions I had as the job progressed. It was a great team of four hardworking men. They even seemed to have fun working together. I recommend them without any reservation."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

You can never truly stop a maple tree from growing taller, but you can rein in its growth by pruning. Proper pruning helps maintain a safe size for your tree without causing permanent damage. It’s important to start pruning a tree while it’s young, long before it becomes a problem. Otherwise, you may be left with too many hazardous branches to remove at once.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.
