"You can tell the owner really know trees and enjoys his work. He and his crew shaped and thinned our Japanese maples and strawberry trees beautifully. The clean up was meticulous. No leftover branches or leaves and the other landscaping was undisturbed. The price I was quoted turned out to be the best of the outfits I contacted and the other guys didn’t sound like they were as knowledgeable as Guardian. We are very pleased!"

"Brian Lozano of Lozano Tree Care did a great job! He was referred to me by a girlfriend who lives just a few blocks away. Evidently, Lozano Tree Care had done several properties on her street, too. Brian was very communicative. I needed about a 60 ' +/- tree removed and then get the stump removed also. He and his crew were great. Worked so hard, nice guys and cleaned up the property to the 'T'! His price was more than competitive. I've been referring them to friends ever since and will be happy to continue to do so. They were great!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

If you’re wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

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.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
