"Outstanding job! I was totally impressed by the efficiency of their six-man crew while cutting down two trees. Both the large hickory and huge pine had the potential to damage my house if falling during a storm. They both required a narrow pathway for felling and were cut down spot-on. The job was very difficult to begin with, because of the proximity to my home, but compounded by the 95 plus degree temperatures and high humidity. The crew worked extremely well together, and safely completed the job. The entire site was completely cleared of all debris, and logs and limbs were stacked exactly where I wanted. I intend to use Molina's Tree Service for any future tree removals and will highly recommend them to friends and neighbors for tree work they may need. Thank you for a job well-done!"

"J & C Tree Experts were great. They are a great company and do a professional job. They made sure that every little detail I wanted done was complete and did not leave until the job was finished. They walked with me from tree to tree as I showed them EXACTLY which Limbs needed to be cut off or just pruned back. The did stump grinding for the tress that were removed and cleaned up all limbs and debris that has fallen during the work. I can safely say that the PRICE was GREAT compared to other companies I saved at least $2000 and they did an exceptional job. I liked them so much I paid them extra because I felt they earned it! I highly recommend J &C Tree Experts to anyone looking to have trees, removed, trimmed, and stump grinding. They are the best Thanks, J & C for a job well done without any hassles. Mrs. Infinger"

"I posted my request for tree stump removal early this AM. Iâ m having a fence installed next week and needed the stump removed asap. Mr. McCants reached out immediately, was at my house a few hours later and performed the work. Mr. McCants was friendly and professional. He was careful to avoid the existing fence. Iâ m very happy with the whole experience and highly recommend this company."

"Franky's Tree and Stump Removal crew showed up on the scheduled date and time and performed the service efficiently and effectively. The crew was extremely proactive in making sure the area was cleaned up after the service, and even used a leaf blower to make sure that our porch had no debris on it. Great job! I would recommend Franky's service anytime. Tim Doherty"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years.
