Permitting

Don’t lose money with permitting delays. Let us help you get your Tree Permit the first time.

Simplify Your Tree Permit Process With the Help of an Expert Tree Service Company

Many cities in Central Texas have laws to both protect and to preserve significant trees and vegetation. These statutes require you to have a survey of existing trees completed by a licensed surveyor, and a plan to protect specific species and sizes. Your plan must show how you will protect the Critical Root Zones and habitat.

If your municipality issues Tree Permits, we recommend working with an arborist.

Failure to provide a complete and accurate survey often causes the city to reject an application. You must accurately identify the species and size of each tree. Tagging the trees on the site with identifying numbers coordinates work between members of the construction team.

An expert arborist assesses and determines whether you should save a tree. Don’t guess. If a tree is in bad condition, you want to save the expense of trying to design around it.

They can also provide the required Tree Protection Plan. This speeds up your process and keeps the trees in the best shape possible.
