Customer Connection
Look at what some of our recent customers had to say about their experience with Preferred:

"When Preferred gave us a project "start date", they meant it.  They remained on the job until it was completed; no starts and intermediate stops.  And they did a commendable job.  We're quite satisfied."  ~Dave and Nancy Warner
 
"The tress looked great and the yard was well picked up.  I could not tell they had been cutting the tress back."    ~David Johnson

Benefits of LED Lighting

LED is the revolution in outdoor lighting.  It has a long list of benefits over traditional lighting options. Preferred uses several different brands of LED but this list will focus on the specific benefits of the Kichler brand of LED lighting.

  • LED lights have a life expectancy of 50,000 hours - that is an average of 15 years! 
  • LED uses 75% less energy than traditional lighting.  This is better for the environment and saves you money. 
  • LED doesn't attract insects - enjoy your yard without the annoyance of light fixtures that attract bugs
  • LED lights are smaller than tranditional lights and blend in with the landscape.
  • The Kichler LED lights have a 15 year warranty.

Oak wilt, one of the most destructive tree diseases in the

United States, is killing oak trees in central Texas at epidemic proportions . Oak wilt is an infectious disease caused by the fungus Ceratocystis fagacearum, which invades and disables the water-conducting system in susceptible trees.  All oaks (Quercus spp.) are susceptible to oak wilt to some degree, but some species are affected more than others.   Oak Wilt Tree
