"Everything went great. The workers were very professional and pleasant to talk too. They cleaned up all the mess after the tree was cut down and now my yard brings in more light into my house. I will definitely hire them again. Thank you G & C Tree service for taking the time and doing a fantastic job cutting my bradford pear tree down which was too large for my small yard. Amazing company! And thank you Leroy for keeping me posted as to when you were able to do the job due to the rainy weather. And also they did a fantastic job when they ground up the stump of the tree and roots Thank you again for a job well done!!"

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!!"

"J & C Tree Service did a great job trimming 2 very tall oak trees. The young man promptly came to give us an estimate & quickly sent email with all work details. Three workers came a day early & immediately started working after confirming task with us. They were very professional hard-working young men cleaning up all debris. We would recommend J & C Tree Service every time. Very pleased we chose this company!!"

"A Plus Tree Service did an amazing job! When Davis came out to give me an estimate, I liked that he didn't try to upsale me on any services. He patiently walked around and educated me on the trees I was concerned about. I felt the pricing was fair and reasonable. Neil, the owner, and crew were like a family and you could tell they enjoyed and took pride in their work. I will have them come out annually to make sure the trees on my property remain healthy."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease.
