Iron chlorosis. Pelican Bay soil runs about pH 5.8–7.2, and at that alkalinity iron is chemically locked up. It is a soil problem, not a disease, and chelated iron corrects it.

Tree work is one of the few home services where the cheapest bid is genuinely dangerous. An uninsured crew that drops a limb through your roof leaves you filing on your own policy, and a crew that tops your oaks leaves you with a bigger problem in five years than the one you started with. We are insured, we send the certificate before we book, and we do not top trees.
The other half of it is diagnosis. A good share of what we get called to look at in Pelican Bay does not need what it was quoted for — it needs deadwood out, a soil correction, or nothing but water and time. Our Certified Arborist visit in Pelican Bay is free, and a second opinion before a four-figure removal is worth having.
Timing oak work in Pelican Bay
Oak wilt pressure is real in this part of Texas, and the single most important rule is timing: the Texas A&M Forest Service advises against pruning oaks between February 1 and June 30, when sap-feeding beetles are active and fresh cuts are how the fungus gets in. If an oak has to be cut in that window — storm damage does not wait — every wound gets painted immediately. We schedule non-urgent oak work in July through January.
FAQ
Tree service in Pelican Bay — common questions
Do I need to be home while you work?
No, as long as we have access and have already walked the job with you. Plenty of Pelican Bay customers are at work while we are there. We will call before we start and send photos when we finish.
Do you charge extra for difficult access?
It is priced into the quote rather than added afterwards. Access is the single biggest cost driver in this trade, which is why we look at every job in person instead of quoting from a description.
Do you give free estimates in Pelican Bay?
Yes. Someone comes out, looks at the tree, and you get a written price with the scope spelled out — no charge and no obligation. We do not quote tree work over the phone from a description, because the things that change the price (access, what is underneath, how the wood has to come out) are not visible from a description.
Do you clean up afterwards?
Completely. Brush chipped and hauled, wood removed or stacked as you prefer, ground raked and blown off. We walk the site with you before we leave. Clean-up is included in the quoted price — it is not a line item that appears later.
Can you work around my schedule?
Usually. Most residential work happens on weekdays during business hours, but we can often arrange early starts or a specific day if access, pets or gates require it. Commercial properties routinely get after-hours or weekend scheduling.
Do you serve areas outside Pelican Bay?
Yes — our regular territory covers Tarrant, Johnson, Parker, Hill and Bosque Counties and the cities inside them. Pelican Bay is on our normal route.
Timing
Tree care calendar for Pelican Bay
| When | What matters |
|---|---|
| Jan–Feb | Prune now. This is oak wilt country, and winter is the only unambiguously safe window. |
| Feb 1–Jun 30 | Absolutely no oak pruning. Red oaks here die fast and connected root systems carry the fungus between trees. |
| Mar–May | Watch red oaks for rapid whole-crown browning — that is the oak wilt signature and it is a call-today situation. |
| Jun–Aug | Drought stress on sandy loam over sandstone. Cedar encroachment accelerates; pasture clearing is easier once the ground is firm. |
| Sep–Oct | Planting and soil work. Ground is workable and the heat has broken. |
| Nov–Dec | Clearing season — firm ground, no nesting restrictions, best visibility through the understory. |
