"Noe runs a very professional tree service?. Top notch equipt, safety practices and a knowledgable staff who has worked with Noe for years. I have three large live oaks on my property, several ornamental trees (crêpe myrtles and strawberry trees) as well as a couple citrus trees. I bring Noe back every year to care for my trees. I?m never disappointed."

"Above and beyond.... VERY PLEASED... Fair price, excellent work, good equipment, prefessional operation.. Was considering doing it myself which would have been a HUGE mistake. Not only did they take down the big tree, they went above and beyond and cleaned up the branches and leaves that had fallen on the patio cover and blocked the skylights. Then on top of that, they made some quick cuts on another tree that was growing wildly near the one taken down. To put the icing on the job, the stump was ground up very well and the ground leveled. ZERO complaints, and to make it easier they were advanced and took Zelle and Venmo. I'm very detail oriented and hard to please butJaime and the crew were frist class."

"Rock came on time and gave me an estimate of services and talked me through the
trimming and shaping of the trees on my property.  I had three estimates and his was
the best and he seemed to most knowledgeable and straightforward.  I took a night
to review the beds and hired him the next day, they put me on the schedule about
ten days hence.  That day Rock and a large crew of men came with their trucks and
 machinery on time and worked efficiently and quickly.  There were a few things I wanted
Rock to look at that I hadn't worked into my estimate and he was very helpful and
 conscientious.  Absolutely the kind of service people who go the extra
mile to make sure the job is done well and make customers for life.

"Simon contracts out, but the same providers have come every week for years and do a quick, clean, and thorough job. They provide maintenance, not gardening, but the price is competitive and they're reliable and do good work. Simon also arranges our annual tree trimming; again, his prices are competitive and the work is tidy and capable. Simon also seems to know quite a bit about trees, so ours are healthy and thriving.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.
