Tree Removal and Planting

Tree Removal
Ball moss removal in most instances is also aesthetic pruning. Ball moss is not parasitic, but is an aerophyte (air feeder) like a bromeliad. Most of the ball moss comes out with dead wood removal. In Wimberley, most of the time ball moss infestations are light and standard pruning removes most of it. Generally, pruning the rest of the ball moss from the healthy limbs constitutes aesthetic pruning, because it does not negatively affect the tree. However, extremely heavy infestations (generally found in other, more humid parts of Texas) can be detrimental because the ball moss can grow to the ends of the limbs and choke out the leaves. Sometimes heavy infestations in central Texas can lead to additional limb failure during ice storms, for example due to extra weight on the branches, especially if the tree is very dense.

Stump Grinding and Removal
We used Tex Star for lawn mowing and other landscape work (eg, lot cleaning, stump removal, planting) for close to a year now. They are reliable and reasonable. We are happy with the results especially after building a pool, being new to the area, Carey has given us valuable advices as to what to plant and how to maintain.

Tree Pruning and Trimming
Health tree trimming mainly involves removing dead wood from the tree so the branch collar can close up and the tree can begin the healing process, minimizing rot in the healthy wood. This is also important because it minimizes carpenter ants which live in the dead branches on the tree and can get into your house.
Tree Fertilization
Tree Maintenance
View pruning is extremely difficult to bid, and in most cases tree care companies generally end up having to bid it on an hourly basis because it is very time consuming, generally is on slopes where brush cleanup is a nightmare, and as the trees in the front are pruned, other trees behind them are opened up and need pruning also. Most reputable tree care companies generally offer it as one of their services out of necessity. It can be done with minimum impact to the tree, but generally needs to be done yearly and in the winter for minimum impact. Aspects of height reduction such as drop-crotching and yearly pollarding are often used. I will do view pruning where it can be done with minimum impact to the trees, and do understand how a good view can impact the value of a property
Arborist Services
View pruning is a term that upsets many arborists (not my favorite subject either). It is not ideal and in most cases has a detrimental effect on the overall health of the tree. It is controversial. Generally, view pruning involves reducing the height of the tree to see over the top, or in the case of extremely tall trees, generally involves opening up the tree through the center to see through it.
Land Clearing
Land Clearing is how the company started, formally known as “Cedar Removal Specialists.” We have cleared thousands of acres and do an efficient quality job that ensures you great value with quality service. Here at Tex-Star we are environmentally conscious when it comes to land clearing. We do not use rudimentary land clearing techniques like “moon-scaping.” Our techniques promote erosion control and ground animal habitat establishment. Each job is individualized. We will work with you to customize any land clearing project. We offer several different disposal options including hauling, burning, and chipping.
Tree Mulching
Brush chipping is a popular disposal method for brush piles and cut trees that you have on your property. We have top of the line Vermeer chippers and mulchers. Our Vermeer BC1400 XL that can take a 15 inch tree trunk and turn it into useable mulch in seconds. The mulch that we make from your cut trees and brush can be used for a variety of landscaping needs including flowerbeds, pathways and other landscaping ideas. We also have mulch available at a discounted price.

Give us a call, we can come out and give you a free estimate on your lawn and landscape maintenance needs. Be sure to ask us about our neighborhood discount program!
Lawn Mowing
As newcomer, it can be a daunting task to find businesses to assist in taking care of that most precious thing, your home. Tex Star, Carey and the crew are that rare combination of work ethic, fair pricing, responsibility and integrity. They have gone out of their way to provide us with outstanding service whether it is mowing, tree trimming or even bringing in a bee expert to protect a colony inside a oak tree. I am thrilled to give them my recommendation!
