Tree Care in Southside Place, TX

Southside Place, your trees are at a unique point in their life. Planted around 2007 when the homes were built, they're now about 19 years old. This is when Southern Live Oaks and Southern Magnolias really start to establish their mature structure, but also when problems from poor planting or early pruning mistakes become obvious. In our hot, humid climate with over 50 inches of rain, trees grow fast. That rapid growth can lead to weak branch unions, especially in species like the Bradford Pear, which are prone to splitting. With 36 storm events a year on average, those structural weaknesses are not an 'if' but a 'when' for failure. Wind is the main concern here. Sustained wind from one direction, common in our storms, fatigues a tree. A sudden wind shift after that can take down a weakened limb or even uproot a tree if the soil is saturated, which happens often with our rainfall.
