Get matched with top tree service pros in Olney, TX

Q: How do I find a reputable and cost-effective tree transplanting professional?

• <div><p>Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers&rsquo; compensation insurance. </p><p>Also, look for companies certified by the <a href="https://www.isa-arbor.com/">International Society of Arboriculture</a> or registered with the <a href="https://www.tcia.org/">Tree Care Industry Association</a> and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.</p></div>

Q: When should I schedule an arborist to prune my tree?

• <div><p>Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/worst-time-prune-trees.htm">worst times to prune trees</a> are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a tree surgeon or just a regular tree company?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re taking down a tree that you don&rsquo;t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it&rsquo;s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-tell-tree-is-dead.htm">dying trees</a> without infecting nearby trees. </p></div>

Q: Should maple trees be topped?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can I take down a tree myself?

• <div><p>It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.</p><p>For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.</p><p>Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.</p></div>

"it's a bit pricey, but if my trees are saved it'll be worth every penny. Dr. Bob was incredibly nice and he knows his stuff. After 45 years in the business I would hope he does. Another plus? He didn't treat my questions as if I were stupid. They drove from Dallas TX to my home in deep east TX a drive of over 4 hours and that was all in one day. I would definitely recommend B&W Insect control and tree service!"

From the start, Cody was friendly, professional, and took the time to really listen to my concerns and preferences, making sure the work matched exactly what I wanted. He was also willing to negotiate pricing, which I truly appreciated, and communicated clearly throughout the process.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance.

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

Ideally, you should wait to prune until trees have gone dormant in late fall to early winter. The worst times to prune trees are early fall and late summer, as pruning them so close to dormancy makes it difficult for the tree recover before it goes dormant for the season.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.
