ARBORIST & TREE PROTECTION
Protecting Your Most Valuable Assets
Mature trees take decades to replace.
Protecting existing trees during commercial construction is both a regulatory requirement and a smart investment in property value. Large trees take decades to mature, and construction damage to root zones, trunks, or canopies can cause decline that doesn’t become visible for months or even years. Gratr Landscapes provides certified professional arborist and tree protection services that preserve your existing tree assets throughout the construction process.
What’s Included
Our Tree Protection Services
Every tree protection project we manage covers these core elements — handled in-house, sequenced with your construction timeline.
Tree protection fencing installation per project specifications and local ordinances
Root zone protection including mulch barriers and soil compaction prevention
Trunk and branch protection during heavy equipment operations
Certified arborist assessments for tree health, risk, and preservation planning
Pruning for clearance during construction without compromising tree health
Compliance documentation for municipal tree preservation requirements
Many Texas municipalities have strict tree preservation ordinances that carry significant penalties for non-compliance. Our team understands these regulations and ensures your project meets all requirements while protecting trees that add value, shade, and character to your property.
THE HIDDEN RISKS
Long-Term Tree Health Starts During Construction
The most common construction-related tree damage is invisible: root zone compaction from heavy equipment, grade changes that bury root flares, and severed roots from utility trenching. We proactively identify and mitigate these risks during the pre-construction phase, giving your trees the best chance of long-term survival and health.
