Why Choose Tree Time Elite Tree Care for Tree Planting
Planting a tree is an investment in your property’s future. A properly planted tree can live for decades, increase your home’s value, and provide shade that lowers energy bills. But a poorly planted tree can become a headache — or even a danger. Kevin Lee brings 30 years of arborist experience to every planting job. He knows which species thrive in Northwest Louisiana’s soil and climate. He understands how far to plant from your house, driveway, and fences. And he ensures the root flare is visible, the hole is the right width, and the tree is properly watered and mulched after planting. That’s the difference between “just planting” and “elite tree care.”

What types of trees do you recommend for my yard?
Kevin Lee will assess your soil, sun exposure, available space, and your personal preferences. Popular options in Northwest Louisiana include oaks, maples, crape myrtles, and magnolias. He’ll guide you to the right choice.
How far from my house should a tree be planted?
It depends on the mature size of the tree. Small trees need at least 15 feet, large oaks and maples need 30-50 feet from your foundation. Kevin measures carefully to avoid future roof, foundation, or plumbing problems.
Do you guarantee your trees will survive?
We guarantee proper planting techniques, which gives your tree the best possible start. While we can’t control weather or future neglect, we provide detailed aftercare instructions and are always available for follow-up questions.
When is the best time to plant trees in Louisiana?
Fall and early winter are ideal because cooler temperatures reduce stress on new roots. However, we can plant successfully year-round with proper care. Kevin will advise you on the best timing for your specific tree species.
Do you also remove old trees before planting new ones?
Absolutely. If you need a dead or unwanted tree removed before planting, we handle that too. We can also grind the stump and prepare the soil so your new tree has a clean, healthy start.
