Anytime is a good time to trim trees. Removing foliage is always a benefit to the tree.

Trimming ensures perfect growth of the tree whereas pruning is performed to protect the tree.

It really depends on the type of tree. Water Oaks are the worst because they soak up all of the moisture and can break the house slab. Small trees are okay no matter how close. Of all of the large trees that are allowed near the house, the live oak is by far the least threatening. They only have surface roots. Trees don't break houses by lifting. Trees break houses by extraction of moisture. So those large trees that have lots of deep rooting can affect a house slab when there is a drought.

There are a lot of reasons why trees need to be pruned including safety, tree health and more. Broken or dead branches can be dangerous if they fall. They also need to be pruned if the branches grow too big for the tree or get too close to your home.
