"These guys were VERY good! They were fast, clean and professional. All the work was performed as expected for a competitive price. Additionally, Joel and his helper were very careful not to damage any adjacent vegetation or hardscape. Everything was cleaned up to perfection. We would certainly have Gil Tree Service return to perform more tree service."

"Jesus was fast efficient. He took out several trees for almost half the price I received from another tree service. I definitely would recommend him to anyone who is looking for quality service at a reasonable price."

"Fredy and his crew are professional, communicative, and thorough. Most important to me, they approach working with trees carefully and lovingly. Our giant palm looks like a new tree! I was worried about having this work done because the tree is such a special part of our home. The crew did a fabulous job and cleaned all the many fronds so well that you wouldn't have known the yard had been full of them during the trimming process. I highly recommend MC Landscapes."

"Except for a rather long delay from the initial proposal until project start, the end result was totally satisfying (best pruning job in 20 years). If want your tree's pruned instead of cut like many pros do, this is your provider. Jesus supervises his people and works with them to complete the job. I would definitely recommend and hire this company again for my pruning needs."

"I would like to give Coyote Tree Service at least ten stars if that were possible. They were amazing and will not hesitate in referring this company to anyone who needs trees trimmed or removed and brush clearing jobs performed on their property. When they finished the job my property was spotless. I will definitely hire them in the future. I was amazed at how reasonable their rates are. I could not be more pleased."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task. 

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

The cost of trees varies massively based on the size of the tree and the species. A small Colorado spruce can cost as little as $30, but a golden rain tree of the same size can cost $90. Large trees can cost $1,500 or more, depending on their species and height.
