"Work was done effectively and on time, Clear Vista Tree Service came to our apartment complex and did a wonderful job. They removed a huge pine tree and trimmed a bunch of other trees. They’re a good crew of men who work well together. They cleaned up well after themselves. We’ll be definitely contacting them in the future for any tree service."

"My wife and I decided to do a complete overhaul of our yard by adding a complete irrigation system that included sprinklers and a drip system. We also decided to remove some concrete paths to extend our lawn and add some hedges to increase the greenery in our yard. My wife and I were both a bit nervous and stressed out about the project in fear of hiring the wrong person for the job. However, from the day that Roberto provided me with his quote for the job he turned out to be very professional and knowledgeable in his trade. He gave me his advice when needed without changing our original plans. Roberto and his crew were always on time and completed the project in a timely manner. Roberto has continued to check in with us and stopped by to check-in and adjust our irrigation system. His quote was very reasonable and I would definitely recommend his services."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

Although the terms tree trimming and tree pruning are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. 

Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It’s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.
