"Tim and his crew removed a medium size tree in my front yard. Also, they removed tree branches growing between the power lines attached to the back of my house. I have been using JC Tree Service for many years and have always been pleased with their work."

"Campos Tree Trimming did such a great job on the work they did trimming our 3 trees and hedges. I was asked in the beginning how I wanted them done and when inspecting their labor it had been done to perfection The price was better than expected and they started and finished the same day. No waiting. I will use them again."

"Cristian Tree Service did an outstanding job taking care of trimming trees and bushes as well as removing some really tough bushes that we wanted removed. They stump ground everything we requested them to do, and even went above and beyond when we asked them to haul off some rocks and wood that we did not want anymore. My husband and I will continue using them for our our tree services going forward. Everyone in the group worked very hard and provided excellent customer service. On top of all the great and excellent work, my husband and I found them to be the most reasonably priced. Thank you again."

"Daniel and his team are really timely, efficient quick and for a great price! As of 12/26/22 we realized had a post oak in our backyard literally leaning against our house. Thank God no damage to the house but still it was detached at the root and needed to be removed asap. Texas Tree Tops came in clutch. Daniel came out within the hour to assess and give us an estimate. He was professional and listened. It was a pleasure to have Daniel and his team resolve our tree problem. They even left my backyard and roof looking better than it was when they arrived! I believe we have found our go to arborists for future projects. Thank you Texas Tree Tops!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.
