"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!"

"They did excellent work. They arrived promptly on the scheduled date and time. They removed the debris and cleaned the area after the trees were removed. You could not even tell the trees were ever there. I loved that the Owner was on site. The entire crew was polite and respectful. I would highly recommend C & G Tree Service! Thank you."

"This company and its employees did an incredible job. I don’t know that you could trim like they did, my hedges and flower beds looks better then I expected. I will employ anyone that needs any kind of work like mine, I will recommend this company. Again, the work they did was amazing."

"Alex, Eddy, and all the guys did a wonderful job with this deck / screen porch build! They were very polite and straightforward with their pricing and services. I honestly do not believe anyone could've done this job any better. Feel confident about hiring these gentlemen and know you can trust them to do the job right. They take pride in their work and their reputation, and it shows in the quality of work they provide."

"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

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.
