"Jaxson and the crew are very professional and truly did an outstanding job. They took down a huge Red Oak and other limbs hanging over my home. I took 14 bids and these guys were not only the most impressive but also gave me the best price hands down. Highest recommendations!! Glenn Roberts"

"ACE Tree Service is the absolute best. I will use them again and recommend them to anyone. First Zach came to give me the quote the same day I called. He was very helpful and a pleasure to meet. He gave me a very fair price so I signed up to have them do the work. A few days or so later, Tim and his crew came to cut the beast and other things. They did a beautiful job. Cutting down my granddaddy pine tree, trimming another tree and cutting smaller ones. Cleaned my yard very well. Today, in less than 24 hours of being cut down the pickup crew arrived to carry off the debris. They too did a spectacular job. No trace of the trees and branches. Iâ m very impressed with the quality job they have done."

"Steve Danley runs a tight ship. His crew worked tirelessly, efficiently, and left the yard cleaner than it was when they got here. They did everything mentioned in the quote and a little extra. I found them to be reasonably priced (especially having witnessed the intensive labor in hot weather), on time, and accommodating. This is my second time to use Alabama Tree Surgeon and I highly recommend them."

"These guys were amazing! They actually did my roof from the time I called them until the time they finished cleaning up and left my house in under 3 days! Don’t think by this that I mean they did a rush job because quite the contrary, these guys went the extra mile to make sure they did an excellent job! They gave me better material than they quoted and they left me with extra shingles and supplies for when the next storm hits. These guys take pride in their work! They did all the little things that add up to a great job! They put their nails in in a straight line for Pete’s sake. If there was a spot that was questionable if it should get a nail or not, it got a nail every time. From the speed they completed my roof in to the quality of the installation, I could not recommend Blue Moose any higher. If you need a roofer, call Brian, you wont be disappointed!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

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.

Permits are often required for large tree removals, especially in urban areas or for protected species, ensuring regulation compliance and neighbor safety.

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.
