"Eddie arrived on the day he agreed to and a few minutes early. He explained what he was doing and why it was important. He gave me options when appropriate. The area of trees and invasive vines were cleared beautifully."

"Amazing experience! I canâ t say enough nice things about these guys! Truly. William and Shannon are good people. They are such hard workers and did an excellent job! To begin with - They were so professional. They were great communicators- keeping me informed every step of the way. They were great listeners too and did exactly what we wanted plus some. They treated our job (our tree) like it was in their own backyard & our yard looks better than it ever did. Outstanding! Also, the cost was beyond fair. Goliath Outdoor Services has a customer - for life! Best customer service EVER! Best tree service EVER!"

"Adrian Paramo arrived on time to repair what I thought was a leak in my sprinkler line in the front yard. He quickly assessed the problem was with the main water supply to the house, not the sprinkler line, and recommended corrective actions. Beyond this assessment he also identified additional problems in my sprinkler system (broken sprinkler heads, leaking sprinkler line in the back yard). He then promptly fixed them and finished up his service call by adjusting the settings for the sprinklers in the front and back yards to ensure efficient watering. Adrian was courteous and professional throughout this visit and the repair expense was quite reasonable. I would not hesitate to engage his services again."

"Juan and his crew were outstanding to work with. They were kind, respectful, and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain exactly what they planned to do, how long it would take, and made sure everything was organized with a clear plan in place. The quality of their work exceeded expectations. They removed and hauled off all the trees, mowed the lawn, cleared out dead leaves by raking, bagging, and hauling them away, and cleaned up all the vines along the side of the house. They also pressure washed the patio and sidewalks, and trimmed back any branches hanging over the home. Everything was completed thoroughly and professionally, and the property looks significantly better. I would highly recommend Juan and his crew to anyone needing landscaping services."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

Service costs depend on several factors, including the system's age, type, and size, as well as the complexity of the repair. Labor costs and whether replacement parts are necessary also play a significant role.

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.
