"They did a really good about removals, trimming, and lifting of the trees. They fertilized the trees and applied Insecticides to the flowerbeds in April. Everything looks healthy and really Notice the difference. I would be contacting them again for another removal of a tree. Also, they were on time and careful not to damage anything on my property."

"This is my second time using Ricky's services. We communicated via text to arrange appointment time. He provided 4 hour window for service and text his arrival time 30 min before. Once arriving he and I walked the lawn & he listened to my concerns & desires for improvement. He took time to educate me on the condition of my lawn and ways to improve. His improvement suggestions were all DIY options. At the end he mentioned he does offer extended services for lawn care beyond aeration if I want to consider outsourcing. At no point in the conversation did I feel pressured or bamboozled. Ricky provides a professional and courteous experience. I recommend Ricky for lawn services. You will get a personal touch for a reasonable price."

"I wasn't too happy with it. He just kind of did the bare minimum. He didn't really have a lot of ideas for what to do. The cost stayed at $79. The guy didn't really do exactly what I had asked. I think I had asked him to clean up some of the stuff and potentially give me some estimate for planting some new stuff. He wasn't really responsive. There are better companies out there. If someone was looking at using them, I would tell them to look elsewhere."

"Weed Man (Family owned and operated) arrived at my mother's home on April 1st. They aerated the yard, applied their weed treatment, and fertilized. They completed the work quickly and professionally. They have returned twice for check-ups and treated any new spots as needed. There were only one or two of them. Her yard looks amazing! I don't have to worry about her being out in the heat! I highly recommend them and their service. You won't be disappointed."

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Houston, TX

The optimal transplanting season depends on your tree species, but most trees respond best when moved during dormancy. For deciduous trees, late fall after leaf drop or early spring before bud break provides the lowest stress periods. Evergreens transplant better in early fall or late summer when soil temperatures remain warm enough for some root growth. Avoiding transplanting during active growth periods helps trees direct energy toward establishing new roots rather than supporting foliage.

While technically, trees of any size can be transplanted with the right equipment and expertise, practical considerations limit what's reasonable for most homeowners. Trees with trunk diameters under 15 inches are most commonly transplanted in residential settings. Success rates decline as trees increase in size and age, with specimens over 24 inches in diameter presenting significant challenges and costs. For large trees, carefully weigh the substantial investment against the potential benefits and survival probability.

Most transplanted trees require one to two years to fully establish in their new location, with larger specimens often needing additional time. During this establishment period, the tree regenerates roots that were inevitably lost during the move. Signs of successful establishment include normal seasonal growth patterns, healthy leaf development, and reduced dependence on supplemental watering. The quality of aftercare during this critical period significantly influences long-term survival rates.

Self-transplanting is feasible for small trees with trunk diameters under two to three inches if you have proper tools and follow correct techniques. However, medium to large trees require professional expertise and specialized equipment to ensure tree survival and property protection. While professional services cost more initially, they achieve much higher success rates and prevent potential damage to your property or the tree itself. The investment in professional services often proves worthwhile when considering the value of mature trees.
