Drought stress, oak wilt, storm damage and lightning all take a toll on Parker County trees. A dead tree near a house, power line or fence is worth handling before the next spring storm brings it down on its own schedule.
Removal on open land versus near structures
On open land a tree can often be felled in one piece and processed on the ground. Near a house, barn, well house or power line, it may need to come down in sections with ropes or a bucket truck. That difference has a large effect on time and cost. If the tree touches a utility line, contact the electric provider first; many will handle trees on the line itself.
Ask whether the contractor will leave the trunk as firewood, chip the limbs, haul everything off or leave stumps for grinding.
Oak wilt caution
Oak wilt is present in parts of North Central Texas. Wounding live oaks and red oaks during spring can raise the risk of spreading it. Texas A&M Forest Service publishes guidance on timing, wound painting and handling diseased wood. If you suspect oak wilt, have an arborist or the Forest Service take a look before trees are cut or moved.
Clearing for construction
When trees are being removed to make room for a building, plan the stump work at the same time. Stumps under a slab or drive should come out entirely, while stumps in a lawn can be ground. See stump grinding and lot clearing for how those pieces fit together. Inside Weatherford city limits, check with the city about any tree rules before removing large trees.
Frequently asked questions
Can I keep the wood for firewood?
Usually, yes. Ask for the trunk to be cut into rounds and left in a spot you choose.
Who removes trees touching power lines?
Call your electric provider first. Trees in contact with lines are a safety hazard and often handled by the utility.
Who does the work, and is the quote free?
The quote is free, and a local land clearing contractor does the work under terms you agree with them; see how it works.
