"William and Shannon are awesome. Came out and gave a fair estimate for the work that needed to be done. William will not start charging until the lift is fully secure and he's ready to start cutting. Actually took about an hour to position/reposition to find the best spot. The tree (roughly 50 feet tall) was located between our house and the neighbors (space of about 20 feet apart). Job was completed in a very timely manner and I ended up saving $100 off the original quote. I would highly recommend giving them an opportunity for your next tree service. Thanks again to you both!"

"He did a great job! He trimmed some large trees on my property, cleared a large portion of my woods, and left it looking really good. He did several tasks while he was here and left everything better than he found it, not much more to say, I will hire Howard tree service in the future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In nature, there are many things that can cause a tree to die, including diseases, insects, and natural disasters such as fires or droughts. Non-natural methods of killing a tree include herbicides or manual intervention, such as cutting it down. Consult a tree removal professional about your options for naturally killing a tree.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

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. 

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.
