"We got most of the work done and he will come back tomorrow morning to finish as was what I wanted. He was very professional, friendly and is helping us out because we had a tree limb (big limb) fall down. He cleaned that up quickly and proceeded to clean around the area and said he would finish in the morning. I look forward to his return as he will finish the tree and clean up detail. I would definately use him again."

"Diego did a fantastic job, I included these pictures of before and after of the jobs he fixed. He was professional and adorable. He was able to complete the job fast and effectively. I am thrilled to have had Diego save me when I needed saving most. He was also able to put together a million piece desk that I needed to build. I would highly recommend Diego for all your handyman building needs !!"

"I met Desert Heroes when I moved to Yuma-they assisted with my furniture truck deliveries. Ken & his team were absolutely the best. I ended up hiring him on the spot for my yard maintenance. Very responsible, friendly, hard working and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

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.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.
