Property line/tree neighbor question

Like pines, oak trees should only be trimmed during the late fall and winter. Trimming oak trees after that risks fungal diseases like oak wilt. Once that sap starts running heavily, trimming is not at all recommended for either pines or oaks. Sorry for the bad news, but check with a certified arborist. They'll likely tell you exactly the same thing ± a few weeks...

The idea that your neighbor will get around to it mañana doesn't bode well for the health of the tree. And that would be even worse for your situation.

Good luck…

bfd is correct about the correct time to prune an oak tree and about oak wilt. Oak wilt can damage or kill an oak tree.

Good Luck
