Why Local Expertise Matters

Georgetown's trees are diverse and historic. From towering live oaks shading century-old neighborhoods to fast-growing species in new master-planned communities, each property has distinct care needs.

Protected trees with trunks 26 inches or larger require permits. Removing without approval can result in fines exceeding $5,000. We handle all permitting.

The Three Big Tree Challenges

Central Texas live oaks, post oaks, pecans, and cedar elms thrive in Georgetown's climate but face relentless pressures. Early diagnosis prevents emergency removals and protects property value.

  • Oak Wilt: A fungal disease that attacks the vascular system, killing trees in weeks or months
  • Drought Stress: Multi-year dry periods weaken root systems and invite secondary pests and diseases
  • Storm Damage: Ice and spring winds snap branches and split trunks without warning

Our ISA-certified arborists identify these issues early and recommend the right treatment before they become emergencies.
