"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

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.
