"Maya’s Landscaping Service is amazing! We have multiple eucalyptus trees and other trees that needed to be trimmed way down. They were here on time, gave us a more than fair price and did the work quickly and efficiently. All of the team members were very friendly. Hire them! You will not be disappointed."

"They are very thoughtful and thorough and get the job done leaving my yard neat and tidy. My fruit trees were having a bug problem and they took care of it. They fertilized all the trees and my trees are ready to begin fruiting for the summer. I would recommend Arce Tree Service to anyone needing prompt reliable tree service. Patricia J"

"Rodriguez Tree Services exceeded my expectations. The staff was kind, friendly, and super helpful. They took care of my trees, yard, and they cleaned and removed all the debris. My yard looks a 1000% percent better. I will reach out to them again when my trees need a bit of TLC. I have already recommended them to my neighbors. -Steven"

Customers say: True professional

"Jose came by the day before my Mexican palm tree was to be removed to give a quote. He presented himself well dressed, spoke intelligently, and gave a quote $200 less than a quote I got earlier so I decided to use Arce services. Later day I received a professional invoice through email and the day before the work was to be completed, I received an automated reminder of the work to be done. He arrived the next day with a crew of 5, multiple trucks, and a wood chipper. They ‘hit the ground running’ with Jose climbing the tree with a chainsaw/ropes, and completed the work within 2 hours. All of his team were quick with a smile and worked diligently. I would use their services again in the future, and most definitely well recommend them to others!!"

"C & H Gardens Artistic Landscape & Tree Service did a fantastic job in my backyard. They worked within my budget. My planting beds were cleaned out, weed barrier installed and new succulents planted. They worked with me on design and planting. They also re-installed stairs to allow access into my canyon lot. Finally they installed a retaining wall to support my mature sycamore tree that is on a slope and also terraced above the tree on the slope. The workmen were efficient and friendly. I would definitely recommend this business for your landscaping needs.1"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

Bradford pear trees bloom in early spring with small white flowers. They typically flower for at least two weeks. In bloom, these trees often emit a foul-smelling odor that’s often compared to rotting fish. Bradford pear trees will sometimes bloom in the fall due to drought or other stress-inducing conditions.
