Trees are a part of the home, and sometimes even a part of the family. From seedling, sapling, mature, through to decline, we witness the cycle of life parallel to our own. Our customer Nora needed to have her red oak removed due to the tree becoming at risk to fail, and possibly injuring people or her property.

The tree had multiple stressors; split, sun scald, Hypoxylon Canker, and borers. As our team removed the tree Nora was kind enough to share photos of her family with the red oak.

Dying trees become increasingly weak and brittle which presents many safety concerns. Our arborists are ISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualified and every time they do an estimate, services are recommended based on their findings. For this specific tree removal was the only safe option.

The debris pile left after a tree has been taken down can be surprisingly large, but we believe in seeing the job all the way through. Texas Tree Surgeons includes debris haul off with all of our removals.
This customer choose to have the city haul debris instead of having our crew remove from site. The city of Richardson will haul brush debris from the curb if scheduled beforehand.
