Common tree types in Austin

Properties in Austin tend to feature heritage live oaks, pecans, cedar elms, and Texas red oaks — Austin's tree canopy is one of the city's defining features. Each species has its own care requirements — most importantly, oaks (live oaks and red oaks) must be pruned only during the dormant season, July through January, and every cut must be sealed immediately to prevent oak wilt.

Austin tree ordinance considerations

Austin's Heritage Tree Ordinance protects any tree 19" or greater in diameter. Removal permits are required and can involve mitigation fees. We handle the full permit process. As part of any removal work, we walk you through what applies to your specific property before scheduling.
