About Tree Trimming in Champions
Trimming in Champion Forest is mostly mature live oak and water oak structural work. These were planted when the neighborhood was first built out around the golf course, and forty-plus years on the canopies have closed over roofs and driveways and gotten too dense in the center for good airflow. On the lakeside lots along Manor Lake, Sotherloch Lake and Marshall Lake the wind exposure is higher, so we thin the crown and clear deadwood to cut the sail area rather than topping the tree. Proper crown thinning opens the structure and lets a storm blow through the canopy instead of pushing the whole tree over.
What grows in Champions: Champion Forest sits on higher ground in north Harris County near Cypresswood and FM 1960, built out around the old Raveneaux golf course and a string of neighborhood lakes. The canopy is heavy mature live oak and water oak, with loblolly pine and pecan on the older lots and crape myrtle along the drives.

The most common trimming issue we see in Champions
The mistake we clean up most in Champion Forest is over-lifting and lion-tailing — a crew strips all the inner growth and leaves a puff of leaves on the branch ends. That looks tidy for a season but it moves all the weight to the tips and makes limb failure more likely in a storm. We thin evenly through the canopy and keep interior growth so the branch stays balanced.
Frequently asked questions
When should I trim live oaks in Champion Forest?
Late summer through winter is safest for oaks here. We avoid the February-June window when the beetles that spread oak wilt are active, unless a limb is an immediate hazard, and we seal any storm cuts made in that window.
Can you trim trees hanging over the lake lots?
Yes. On the lots backing Manor, Sotherloch and Marshall Lakes we rig limbs down rather than dropping them, so nothing goes in the water or onto the bulkhead.
Will thinning my oak help in a hurricane?
Proper crown thinning reduces the sail area so wind passes through the canopy instead of pushing on a solid wall of leaves. It lowers the odds of failure but no trim makes a tree hurricane-proof.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Sticks Tree Service Inc. is fully licensed and insured for all tree work in TX.
Do you offer free estimates?
