"Urban tree care, they came and knocked out three big and tall redwood trees located in my backyard. Heriberto (the tree climber and business owner) came with his crew and knocked all three of them out in a day. Urban tree care is by far the best tree service provider out there. I would highly recommend them to for any tree service or any estimates needed."

"You can tell the owner really know trees and enjoys his work. He and his crew shaped and thinned our Japanese maples and strawberry trees beautifully. The clean up was meticulous. No leftover branches or leaves and the other landscaping was undisturbed. The price I was quoted turned out to be the best of the outfits I contacted and the other guys didn’t sound like they were as knowledgeable as Guardian. We are very pleased!"

"Juniors responded within 5 min of my inquiry. Came out within 24 hours for an estimate. Work was done timely, expeditiously,and professional. Cleaned up debris after job completion. Price was more than reasonable. I'd like to refer them to Stockton,CA ( my dtr's home) but it's out of their service area. I'd give them 6🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.
