Tree Service in Highland Park, TX

Highland Park sits on the high ground inside Dallas, a 2.3-square-mile town of about 9,000 people with one of the oldest residential tree canopies in Texas. Preston Road is the town's spine: the first paved street in Highland Park and one of the oldest roads in North Texas. Mockingbird Lane runs the north edge. Highland Park Village, the Spanish Mission style shopping center at Preston and Mockingbird, is a National Historic Landmark. The Dallas Country Club, the first country club in Texas, anchors the west side. The town incorporated in 1913 and has guarded its park system and its canopy ever since.

The work here is old-tree work. Pecans, live oaks, red oaks, and bur oaks a hundred years old, growing on heavy blackland clay that swells when wet and cracks wide in August. Lakeside Park runs 14 acres along Turtle Creek between Beverly Drive and Armstrong Parkway, and the creek bottomlands hold bottomland hardwoods that drop limbs every storm season. Mature trees over old foundations, pools, and power lines are the daily call: deadwood cleanup, crown thinning to let light back into the yard, and rigged removals between houses where a dropped tree is not an option. Bradford pears planted in the 80s are past their prime in a lot of yards, and the crape myrtles need real pruning instead of another year of topping.

We work Highland Park from the creek corridor to the village: hazard assessments on the old canopy, careful pruning that respects the tree and the yard, and full-service removals with the stump ground and the property left clean. The town takes its canopy seriously, so when a job touches a property line, a construction site, or a big old tree, we plan it inside whatever rules apply. Free on-site estimates. Straight talk about what the tree needs and what it does not.
