Frequently Asked Questions – Austin Tree Service

What is the best tree service in Austin, TX?
Tree Scouts is a top-rated tree service in Austin with ISA certified arborists, TRAQ qualifications, and hundreds of five-star reviews. We specialize in navigating Austin's tree preservation ordinances, handling Heritage Tree permits, and treating oak wilt in Travis County. Our arborists serve Tarrytown, Zilker, East Austin, Barton Creek, West Lake Hills, and all Austin neighborhoods with free assessments and transparent pricing. We're BBB Accredited and earned the 2025 Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave Award.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Austin?
Tree removal in Austin often requires a permit, especially for Heritage Trees (19+ inches diameter), trees in critical environmental features, or properties in historic districts like Tarrytown and Hyde Park. The City of Austin requires permits for trees meeting size/location criteria. Tree Scouts handles all permit applications, arborist reports, and City of Austin coordination for Austin properties.
When can I trim oak trees in Austin?
Oak trees in Austin should only be trimmed July through January to prevent oak wilt spread. Austin's oak pruning ban runs February 1 through June 30 when nitidulid beetles carry oak wilt fungus between trees. Emergency storm damage is exempt but requires immediate wound treatment with pruning sealer and notification to the City of Austin for Heritage Trees. Pruning oaks during ban season risks killing valuable trees and violating city ordinances.
How much does tree removal cost in Austin?
Tree removal in Austin typically costs $600 to $4,000+ depending on tree size, location, permit requirements, and access difficulty. Factors include Heritage Tree status requiring city permits, proximity to structures in dense neighborhoods like Tarrytown or Mueller, crane access needs for limited-access properties, and stump grinding inclusion. Tree Scouts provides free on-site quotes for all Austin properties. Call 737-204-7429 for accurate pricing.
How do I protect my Austin trees from oak wilt?
Protect Austin oaks from oak wilt by using a certified company, treating all oak wounds immediately with pruning sealer, scheduling preventive fungicide injections for high-value Heritage Trees, trenching 24-inch deep barriers to sever root connections from infected neighbors, and removing infected trees promptly before spores spread. Oak wilt devastates Austin neighborhoods like Tarrytown, Zilker, and Barton Creek where dense oak populations share root systems.
Does Tree Scouts serve downtown Austin and surrounding areas?
Yes, Tree Scouts serves downtown Austin, Tarrytown, Zilker, East Austin, South Congress, West Lake Hills, Barton Creek, Hyde Park, Travis Heights, Mueller, and all Austin neighborhoods. We navigate City of Austin tree ordinances, handle Heritage Tree permits, and work in tight urban environments. Our arborist provides free assessments throughout Travis County. Call 737-204-7429 to schedule service in your Austin neighborhood.
