"Bailey Tree Company was awesome. They showed up right on time and started working. The arborists were professional, courteous and safe. They trimmed three trees in the front of my house and took down 2 big trees in my back yard. Nothing was damaged and they cleaned everything up afterwards. The yard and side yard look even better than before they started. I should also mention the staff at the office. They kept me up to date with everything going on regarding my appointment (weather issues). They were always available and took my payment over the phone once the job was completed. They were the nicest people I have spoken to on the phone. Best thing... the price was the best quote I received after calling multiple companies. I would highly recommend them to anyone searching for tree services. The money is not their priority. The satisfaction of the customer is what matters to them. This is proven with the follow up call I received from their office, checking in to see how the work went."

"Although it took weeks to schedule someone to come out and give me an estimate, the actual pruning appt. was made fairly soon afterword. I am very impressed with this company. They are very knowledgeable and Cody explained what they were doing and why along the way. They were on time and cleaned up everything nicely. The trees look so much better (They have never had service), the canopies are raised and off the roof and ground, and they have been thinned out but not just chopped. Acorn is also going to prune my Crape Myrtles in the winter. I definitely recommend this company."

"They safely removed a 60'ft oak tree that was diseased missing bark in large areas and efforts to revive it after the Camp Fire 5+ years ago didn't work. All Green Tree service downed by sectioning and cleaning branches with that chipper/grinder. They kept their safety promise, grinded both stumps below ground level and did a fine job for a good price. Thank You, Michael C. 2-15-24, (530)246-1755..."

"Ismael is a true professional. He could be considered an arborist. He trimmed my huge Crape Myrtle perfectly ~~ thinned it out and didn’t cut it down to a stub. It is perfect. He also cut down a tallow tree that was pushing on the fence. He is more than fair on the estimate and timely in his arrival. He cleaned up all the mess and the yard was perfect when he was finished. He will be my tree guy for all future work."

"Tom Chase is a local and very personable guy with a good crew who know what they are doing. They were prompt, listened to our needs, trimmed our trees expertly and cleaned up the site before leaving. They were happy to leave us with the wood chips which we promptly used as mulch in our planting areas. I will use them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.

Debris removal is often included in the overall cost of having a tree removed from your property. However, tree maintenance service companies do not always include debris removal in their pricing, so ask any contractors offering tree trimming cost estimates whether or not removal is included. If you want to keep the wood mulch, ask if they charge extra for it as well.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.
