"I highly recommend Molinas Tree Service! They are an amazing team of friendly, professional, efficient and hard working individuals. They were quick to respond to my call for an estimate on removing a huge pine tree and arrived early on the day of removal. Clean up was good. The cost was very reasonable. If you are looking for a company you can trust to get the job done well, in a timely manner and at a reasonable cost, call Molinas!!"

"I received the contact information of K & C Tree Service thru Angieâ s List. Emanual was prompt to reach out and provided a realistic and fair estimate. I am always sad to see a tree being removed but after consulting an arborist, the tree started to deteriorate fast and would fall right onto the house. The tree was surrounded by many healthy trees. To project the healthy trees, Emanual and team tied each branch and piece with a rope and dismantled the tree piece by piece. They are safety oriented, right-on time, professional, carefully removed all branches and wood logs and hauled the wood away. I highly recommend this team! I certainly will go back to this team if needed."

"This company and its employees did an incredible job. I don’t know that you could trim like they did, my hedges and flower beds looks better then I expected. I will employ anyone that needs any kind of work like mine, I will recommend this company. Again, the work they did was amazing."

"Outstanding experience! They were professional and very reasonably priced. They completed a huge project in a timely fashion. The oak tree they took care of was big enough that 3 adults couldn’t reach around it."

"I was very impressed with the work. They are a crew of go-getters. They arrive early in the morning and immediately got busy. They took down 4 fairly large trees and did all the clean up in a day and 1/2. The price was very reasonable and they were careful with the property around the task at hand. I will definitely use them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.

If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.
