"Aguilar Tree Service apparently subbed out the job to a different tree Service. The price was well below that of other estimates and the two man crew worked hard and fast to remove dead branched and limbs broken by wind. The work was completed on the same day of the estimate. The bad news is that most of the cuts were not at the branch collar but maybe 6 to 12 inches above it, even for dead branches. I doubt that it will help the tree close over the wound. In summary, great price and hard workers but lacked good arborist practices."

"Both my husband and I are delighted with the work that exceeded our expectations. Our property looks splendid. The desert look I requested was executed perfectly, the crew worked together well and everyone knew what their tasks were. Those in charge were easy to speak with & everyone was very pleasant. The price was reasonable and the quality outstanding. Edward, the owner, loves his work, and follows through with whatever look the owner wants. AZ Desert Tree Care is at the top of my list!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.
