"Sal and his crew provided excellent service. He shows a particular concern for the overall health of the tree, and uses his skill as a certified Arborist to assess where the tree is in its life cycle, what particular stresses or diseases it may be presently subject to, and recommends a course of action which is best for the tree's continued health and survival. He also pays particular care to any wildlife which might be nesting in the tree at the time.
I would recommend Sal's company (S & H Tree Service) to anyone and everyone. I will call no other man for the job, and intend to use him exclusively from now on.

"For the price we paid for the deal on Angie's List, the Down Under workers did a fine job. Our yard had been overrun with weeds, and I wanted the cleaned up. The time we had the team wasn't nearly enough to do the job justice, but it sufficed.

"When I called, the owner gave me the estimate I asked for, walked me through options and different monthly and price plans, set up an appointment that was convenient to my schedule and told me what to expect and what employee would be handling the job. I recently moved into a home that had been vacant and had spiders throughout the house and gophers inhabiting the yard. At the scheduled appt time Cliff showed up, neatly dressed, extremely professional throughout the assessment. He gave me some additional options I had to rid the home of the spiders and made suggestions for monthly services. I have a 15000 sq ft lot that I had not discussed with the owner and Cliff was not expecting. However, he worked with me, scheduled my next appt again within my limited available schedule, and was very pleasant to work with. He showed up for my second appt on time and completed the job to my satisfaction. I can't say enough about this company knowing how to do their job and satisfy their customers."

"The young guy who did the work was prompt and professional, but not well trained. He power washed my patio BEFORE blowing the leaves and sticks off my roof, so all the debris landed on my just cleaned patio, and he didn't follow up to clean it off.
He forgot to do the garage door and was all packed up when he asked me to inspect, so I just let it ride.

"So so happy we found this tree service. They are respectful, great at what they do, safe, and CLEAN. I’m top of all that their prices are more than fair. Watching them climb our huge Eucalyptus was terrifying but impressive. We will absolutely use them again in the future and highly suggest them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.

Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don’t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

Ensures complete removal and mitigates risks of underground root damage.

Ivy eventually kills trees by restricting its growth, blocking sunlight, absorbing nutrients and water from the soil, and weakening the tree. Trees with ivy are more likely to experience diseases, pests, rot, and fungi growth. When ivy weighs down tree branches, the tree is more likely to break during a storm and cause damage.
