Laredo tree trimming near power lines
Texas law keeps workers, tools and equipment at least six feet from high-voltage overhead lines unless safety arrangements are made with the line operator, which needs 48 hours' notice. Ask the crew how they'll handle any limb near a line. Spraying trees for pests for hire needs a TDA license in the lawn and ornamental category, and ISA Certified Arborist is a professional credential, not a government license. Ask for proof of liability insurance before anyone climbs, and ask Building Development Services whether work on a street tree or a construction lot needs city approval.
