"Tom and his crew came out to trim 1 tree away from the side of our house, clean up a yucca, and thinned and shaped an old pine. His crew did an amazing job, efficient and professional. The trees look great. Tom followed up to make sure everything was up to par. Appreciate the the great work his crew did."

Customers say: True professional

"Five Star Tree Service did a fine job of removing trees, shrubs, and some very large agaves. They arrived right on time, finished the job quicker than I expected, cleaned up thoroughly, and hauled everything away. The price was very reasonable. If I need any work like this, I will call on Mike and Carson again."

"Luis and his crew did phenomenal work and went above and beyond what was required. We hired them to remove a number of trees but they also took the time to prune and clean up other trees on the property without even mentioning it. Their customer service was fantastic and I will absolutely use them again in the future. I have already recommended their service to a number of personal friends."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.

You’ll want to have your palm trees trimmed during the spring, ideally in May, before hurricane season sets in, which generally takes place during the late summer. Palm trees grow fastest over the summer months. You’ll also want to trim your palm trees when you notice:

  • Brown fronds 

  • Dry leaves

  • Flower pods

  • Fruit

  • Fronds overgrown in power lines

  • Frond encroaching upon your neighbor’s home or yard 

  • Visible damage from a storm

You will know that an oak tree needs to be removed when you see vertical cracks or dead branch stubs, which indicate internal decay. Other signs include trunk rot near the base of the tree and sprouts or small branches coming from the trunk.

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.
