"The gentlemen from Molina's Tree Service were professional, capable, friendly, fast, and careful. They chopped up and hauled away a very large oak that fell in our backyard. And, they were careful not to damage our lawn in the process. I will absolutely call these folks again if needed and highly recommend them to others."

"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"

"Mr Leroy is a pleasure to work with. He is professional and very courteous. He has a phenomenal work ethic and has a marvelous crew. The work that we had done matched exactly what was quoted. They worked in a timely fashion ensuring the safety and cleanliness of our property. Some of the work required coordination with Huntsville utilities and they took care of all of that so the process was seamless. Due to his experience, expertise, and integrity he noticed a large maple tree that unfortunately was deteriorated to the point it needed to come down. He took pictures and sent them to let us know but then left it up to us on how to proceed, no pressure just information. We were grateful for that and although we had not intended to include that in the scope of work we were doing knew it was best and safest to have him remove it. We have found our tree guy and highly recommend to anyone needing this service!"

"JD is a stand up guy. His company works fast to get the storm downed trees off my house cleaned up. Even difficult ones. Crane could not access the location so he said they would have to take it down old school. Impressive to watch how they accomplished this. Tonnes of tree safely handled with a great deal of knowledge and finesse. I highly recommend his service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

Cutting down a dead tree is always strongly advisable. Aside from being an eyesore, a dead tree can be extremely hazardous, especially when it’s near people or structures. Even if the tree isn’t near your home, it can still harbor pests and diseases that can potentially spread to nearby plants and homes.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.
