"Kevin arrived promptly and performed the services we agreed on to my satisfaction. He's friendly, easy to talk to, and knows how to deal with trees since he's a licensed arborist. There was no indiscriminate or unnecessary cutting. I'd use Johnson's Tree Care again and have already recommended him to my neighbors."

"The job went like clockwork. Aly was prompt in coming out when contacted to provide an estimate. While the cost for cutting and hauling this very large pine was not inexpensive, it was reasonable given the size of the job and was within the parameters of other quotes I received. I was impressed with the many positive client reviews I read about Aly's Tree Trimming and the fact that the company was bonded, a certified Arborist, and licensed. Aly was able to get his crew over immediately after PG&E had finished their job of cutting near the high voltage lines. Aly has a large crew and they worked quickly and efficiently. Alex the foreman, did a wonderful job working with our difficult neighbor in handling the issues of working on the neighbors property. They cleaned up every day and when a small tree on the neighbor's property was damaged, they replaced the tree with a similar specimen. The crew were very professional and courteous. They avoided any damage to the two properties (other than the tree mentioned above). I would definitely use Aly's Tree Trimming again and would highly recommend it to other clients who are seeking the highest professionalism, and courtesy."

"I was contacted by Eli just after I put a request for prices to do the above work. He made an appointment for the next morning. After I made the decision to hire him, he started the work on the following Monday. He removed two 60 ft. trees. He and his crew were extremely organized and efficient with their time. Trees were removed along with all debris. The cleanup of the both front and backyards were great. I would highly recommend him for work and plan on having him back to prune fruit trees at the proper time."

"Oscar and his crew did an amazing job cleaning up my front and back yards, removing two problem trees which were planted too close to the house many years ago, out of control oleander bushes, an overgrown aloe patch and other assorted weeds and plants which had taken over the front and back yards. They worked quickly and efficiently, and left everything as nest as a pin. I could not ask for more and I would definitely hire them again in the future should the need arise. They even fixed a stump which was inadequately removed by a previous tree service company, and informed me of another incomplete stump removal, which I will have the other company come back and address. I would not believe what they were able to accomplish in 5 hours if I did not see it myself!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!

The best pro to hire for spraying trees is a tree maintenance specialist. These pros are well-versed in selecting the right spray treatment and applying it properly to ensure there’s no collateral damage to the tree or surrounding landscape. Many tree maintenance services employ certified arborists, but for these routine visits, the extra investment usually isn’t necessary.

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.

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.

The average tree pruning should take one hour with the right equipment. Light pruning of a small tree may only take around 15 to 20 minutes. Pruning multiple large trees in your yard will probably take several hours, including cleanup. However, tree pruning pros can do this job much faster, so you can rely on pros if you’re short on time.
