"Timberjak, Sherman, TX, removed a 60-70 ft. tall TX Loblolly pine tree (base circumfrence aprx. 9 ft.) between two (2) houses. They arrived at 9 am, as they originally stated, and by Noon, had the tree topped out. They completed removal of the tree by 5 pm, quitting time. The majority of the tree limbs were shredded, and the remainder loaded in a trailer for disposal. Their motto is "We don't come to play, we come to work", is exactly what the crew of seven (7) do. No play, all work. The Timberjak crew had to work around several old plants with their equipment, one being an extremely large bucket lift. The owners were on-site 100% of the time working along with the rest of the crew. We've known Steven Hagan, for several years, "from another life", and his desire for perfection. But since this was business, our knowledge of Steven was only a part of our decision to hire Timberjak. Steven also came in with the lowest bid of three (3) bidders. Would we hire Timberjak, again, for tree removal? We certainly would."

"Outstanding Service and Incredible Workmanship! I can't say enough good things about H&M Services! Hector and his crew went above and beyond to help me after a storm left my livestock without a fence. While other companies ignored my calls or acted like my situation wasn’t important, Hector made me feel heard and valued from the very start. Even with their packed schedule, they worked me in and got the job done quickly, saving my animals’ freedom and my peace of mind. The team arrived early, worked tirelessly without taking breaks, and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Their dedication, professionalism, and hard work were truly impressive. Every single person was polite, respectful, and focused on getting the job done right. Hector took the time to answer all my questions, big or small, and made sure I was completely satisfied. If you're looking for a fence company that genuinely cares about their customers and delivers top-quality work, look no further. Highly recommended!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

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.

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.
