"R&G Landscaping did a wonderful job on our trees. We have hired them twice to cut down dead large dead trees left from the winter freeze. Both times they responded to my initial call very quickly, coming over the same day to provide a free estimate that was fair for the scope of work. Once committed they came back to do the work at the agreed time, handled the work quickly and efficiently, cleaning up after themselves and hauling off all of the debris. One of our trees was very close to the pool and they made sure no droppings got into the pool, which was difficult but appreciated. I will definitely call R&G again when we need more work done and would recommend them to anyone in Corpus Christi."

"Professional and good provider. My only concern is that the pricing kept changing and going up. They took care of it all but there's always a reason for not doing something right the first time. Broke the sprinkler system but I had to split the cost for fixing and upgrading it. Planted trees but many are not dug in properly, complained that we got too many trees so the guys got tired. Small issues but at the end it got to be too much to deal with. He did spend time with me at the nursery to pick up plants and trees. Professional, I just wish they stayed true to the quoted price and not call me "mean" when I questioned why the price went it."

"Freddy and Alex are amazing palm tree trimmers. Fast, beautiful job, fair pricing, and meticulous clean up. They even skimmed our pool and hot tub AND both neighbors pools and hot tubs afterwards, because of the saw dust. I will only use them from now on."

"Fine people and very cordial. They removed one 45-year-old oak tree, trimmed three more, and removed three tallow trees. They had some equipment problems and underestimated the breadth of the project, which extended the estimated length to do the job by 3 days. However, they held true to the quote and did a good job cleaning up fter the project was done. I would hire them again."

"Trevor was great. Showed up on time as scheduled. Performed his duties quickly and neatly. He cleaned sidewalks and driveway which brought the whole yard together to give it the picture perfect look. I’ve recommended him to family and friends, those that have hired him have been happy as well. Trevor is our new regular lawn guy!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.
