Texas Tree Tops provides Arlington tree service for homes, businesses, apartments, HOAs, and managed properties between Fort Worth and Dallas.
Arlington properties often need tree trimming for clearance, tree removal for risky or declining trees, stump grinding after removals, and emergency cleanup after storms. Texas Tree Tops helps Arlington property owners keep trees and outdoor areas safer, cleaner, and easier to maintain.
Arlington's tree preservation rules exist explicitly to protect the native Cross Timbers forest that runs through the city, and the 2020 UDC amendments added a permit requirement for tree removal. The permit regime is aimed at vacant, undeveloped, and redevelopment property — an ordinary developed home lot generally sits outside it, but details matter, so check with Planning and Development Services first.

Ordinance details change — confirm current requirements with Arlington before scheduling a removal.
Viridian — Arlington's flagship master-planned community — is governed by a CCMC-managed residents association whose rules require every lot to keep at least one tree in the front yard. Dalworthington Gardens and Pantego are separate enclave municipalities inside Arlington's footprint, with their own rules rather than Arlington's UDC.
Arlington sits in the Eastern Cross Timbers — the narrow post oak and blackjack oak belt on sandy soils between the Blackland Prairie and the Grand Prairie. The 58-acre Sheri Capehart Nature Preserve shelters the Caddo Oak, a 200-plus-year-old post oak listed in the Registry of Texas Historical Trees, and Bob Cooke Park holds the regional champion bald cypress. A post oak whose roots are severed rarely closes those wounds before rot moves in — slow growth is the species' defining urban weakness.
Arlington confirmed its first oak wilt case in July 2026, in west Arlington (76017) — the first documented instance in the city urban forest manager's nearly 15 years there. The city responded by mandating wound-sealing paint in its own landscaping contracts. The safe trimming season for oaks here runs from midsummer into January, with sealant applied as each limb comes off.
