"This is the second time that I have used this company. They trimmed my oaks and seasonal trees as requested. They removed dead limbs, moss, and painted the oak cuts. They are professional in their approach to the job."

"Aguilera tree service did a great job. They communicated with me very well. We agreed on what what trees needed to be removed and they came the next day and did an excellent job. They cleaned up the area so it was left very neat. They were punctual and efficient. I am extremely satisfied with the work that they did."

"From my initial contact with Texas Sun Tree Service the experience was top notch. The owner, Esteban Rodriguez, contacted me immediately and made an appointment for an estimate. Mr. Rodriguez arrived on time and immediately began the educational experience. I told him what I needed and he explained how the job should be done and WHY. He understood that as a consumer I would be seeking other bids. Texas Sun Tree Service bid was competitive, but it was his timely follow-up and professional attitude that sold me. My decision was affirmed. His crew arrived when scheduled and delivered a professional service to match his - making the entire process seamless and without incident. My trees received the attention they deserved and my backyard looks like a new space. Thank Texas Sun."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

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.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.
