Odessa tree work near power lines
For a tree along your service line, Oncor says to hire a private arborist and request a temporary disconnect, which carries a charge. Texas law bars anyone from working, or bringing tools, within six feet of a high-voltage overhead line without safety arrangements with the operator, and closer work needs at least 48 hours' notice. Report a hazardous tree near lines to Oncor at 888-313-6862, or 911 if there's fire or sparking.
After storms, Oncor prunes only what's needed to restore power. A fallen tree that doesn't touch lines is the owner's cleanup. Ask the Building Inspection Division whether Odessa regulates removal on your lot before you book.
What tree service costs in Odessa
HomeGuide's national figures: removal from about $200 for a small tree to $3,000 for a large one, trimming $400 to $900 per tree, and stump grinding $120 to $400 for the first stump. Tree work is taxable in Texas. ISA Certified Arborist is a professional credential, not a state license. More in the Texas tree service guide and the Odessa local guide.
Odessa tree removal FAQs
Will Oncor remove a tree touching my power line in Odessa?+
Oncor trims between poles itself. Trees along the service line from the pole to your house are your responsibility; hire an arborist and request a temporary disconnect.
Do Odessa tree services need a license?+
Spraying trees for pests needs a TDA lawn and ornamental license. For removal and trimming, ask what license or registration the crew holds and check any credential claimed, such as ISA Certified Arborist.
