"After reading the many 5⭐️ reviews that Bears Tree Service had, I called them for a quote on a small tree job. Fernando came out within 30 minutes, listened to my tree trimming needs and gave me an immediate, reasonable quote. He was able to come out the same day, late afternoon, and did this job for me. Tree looks great, meets my expectations. Fernando cleaned up the work site, looks great. I highly recommend Bears Tree Service, if Fernando is the guy to do the job. 👍👍👍"

"Aly came on a Thursday to give an estimate and had 2 workers out the next day. They helped remove the trunk of a citrus tree that I couldn't get out myself along with trimming and orange tree and the neighbors trees that were coming over on our side which was encroaching on wires. Both the communication and work done were excellent."

"Tony, the owner of Pacific Landscaping, has great company and does professional work at a good price. Tony showed up with 2 others with a huge diesel chipper and huge F450 something truck. These guys are beyond qualified. One of the three, the tree climber, shimmied up the tress single handed with his climbing gear and proceed to efficiently and quickly remove the branches I specified and clear out the remainder. Very impressive. I had 4 trees needing trimming and continued to do the same for the remaining 3 trees, all in about 1 hours and 30 min. They cleaned up before they left and proceeded to go to next job. I had forgotten my check book and Tony said no problem, I trust you and you can mail within 15 days. Very professional, would hire them again in an instant. I don't have any landscaping per say but I would hire Tony for routine maintenance. These guys are great."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

To maintain trees on a commercial property, perform regular pruning, monitor for diseases, and apply fertilization to promote healthy growth. It is also important to remove any hazardous branches to keep the trees healthy and prevent potential liability issues.

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.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.
