"We had a tall pine tree (40feet?) that was leaning over the neighbor's house and needed to be removed. We got an estimate from another tree service first but were dissatisfied so I called Rock's - they are on the list of Pasadena certified arborists and we didn't know if the tree would be under the protection ordinance.  Mary Beth one of the owners and arborist came out within two days of my call and was very helpful. She helped me determine that my tree was under the size for protection so we didn't need a permit although she recommended taking pictures in case the city questioned. She recommended removal of two other smaller sick looking eucylaptus trees and pruning of dead branches in two other pine trees. She was thorough explaining what to look for in sick trees, pointed out some areas of oak root fungus that she said we should scrape away to protect our large oak tree, and recommendations for pruning of oaks that should be done next summer. She estimated the removals and pruning separately so that we could just do the main removal and not the others items, or leave them till a later date.  7.5 hours later in the big windstorm we heard a thud and low and behold the pine tree had cracked and fallen on the neighbor's house! Fortunately, it rested on the roof without going through. I knew that the storm would mean that they would be busy  so I immediately called and left a message for Mary Beth about coming to remove the tree so we would be high on the list. The following morning she called and said they were trying to get the people stuck in their houses that day and since it hadn't gone through the roof would come the following day. The next day Carlos shows up with a crew of 8-10 guys. It was only 1.5 hours till dark so I worried they wouldn't finish in time. Carlos figured out how to stabilize the tree with ropes so that it wouldn't shift and damage the roof while they were working. They striped the side branches off and then took the trunk down pieces at a time. Soon Rock the other owner showed up with another crew to make sure they finished before dark. In the end we had about 15 guys working at a feverish pace and they finished blowing and chipping just as the dusk settled into darkness:) Although it would have been great if we had time to remove the tree before the storm- I am just thankful I had made contact with such a good company that could help us out- not having to rely on just whoever we could get in an emergency. We will be relying on them for all our future pruning work. I'm sure they aren't the cheapest, but I bet lots of those cheaper tree services would have ended up damaging the roof during removal."

"Excellent experience with Maya Tree Service, price was very reasonable and the job and clean up was well done. The only reason I rated the customer service a 4 was because for both appointments; estimate and actual work, he was extremely late and did not call to let me know. I would recommend them."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.

The exact answer to this question depends on which region of the country you’re talking about, but according to various tree counts, some of the most common types of trees in the United States include red maple, Douglas fir, quaking aspen, loblolly pine, and sweetgum.

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.
