"When my neighbor noticed the tree between our houses were looking stressed, she called and the arborist came the next day. He diagnosed the problem and the trees were treated a day or two later. It’s too early to observe improvement, but design tree did a good job. They were on time and very knowledgeable"

"Jose responded to my inquiry promptly, setting an appointment the next day. There was a lot of clean up to do as our previous landscaper was lackadaisical. Jose spent 2 days here and was also able to get another professional to trim our palm trees. We have hired him on a weekly basis, looking forward to our yard looking more presentable without my husband having to trim bushes etc."

"Excellent work on removing a large acacia tree including stump removal. They also planted two new trees and installed the water system. New trees are thriving. It’s been three years. The crew completed the jobs in a half day and were very tidy. A little high on price, but worth it."

"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."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

If an arborist is certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), the highest level of certification available is ISA Board Certified Master Arborist. According to the ISA, this credential is reserved for arborists “who have reached the pinnacle of their profession.” Check your arborist’s credentials before hiring to confirm their level of training and expertise.

On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.

In the case that a tree is growing directly on your property line, the cost of maintaining the tree is shared and is the property of both owners in common. In this case, all decisions regarding the maintenance of the tree must be made jointly, and both parties must agree on a course of action. You will need to agree with your neighbor about the cutting of any roots before you carry it out, and your neighbor must also consult with you before doing any trimming. Coming to an agreement with your neighbor about any shared trees ahead of necessary trimming and maintenance will make this process much simpler.
