"Phil Essner was very professional and did a great job trimming 2 oaks in our front yard. He loaded everything into his dump trailer and hauled it to the dump. He was also the low bid of 3 we got. Highly recommended."

"The team trimmed several trees that were very overgrown. They did a really good job and worked very hard over two days to get the work done. The trees looked great! Canâ t wait to see how beautiful they will look when they fill back out in Spring. They cleaned up really well after the work was done. Very nice guys too, and easy to communicate with. Very positive experience, and we will hire again!"

"We recently purchased our new home and wanted to restore and rebuild our fence to give our property a fresh, updated look. Carlos with Sandoval Landscaping did an amazing job bringing our vision to life! From start to finish, Carlos was hardworking, knowledgeable, and attentive to the details. He took pride in his work and made sure the fence was not only sturdy and functional but also looked beautiful. The before-and-after transformation speaks for itself! We are extremely happy with the results and appreciate the time and effort he put into improving our home. Carlos has years of landscaping experience, and it definitely shows in his craftsmanship. We highly recommend Sandoval Landscaping to anyone looking for quality work and someone who genuinely cares about the finished product!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

If your palm tree has spots on the leaves, rotting buds, or is beginning to turn yellow, then you have a sick tree on your hands. You should contact a palm tree specialist to identify the problem and help treat the tree if possible. Preventing diseases and pests is key to a healthy palm tree, and it's essential to take action as soon as possible if your tree is showing signs of being sick.

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

Homeowners are usually not responsible for trees that fall on power lines. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.

There are a few differences between tree guying and tree staking. Tree guying requires anchor stakes that are shorter and stronger than regular stakes and are driven deeper into the ground at an angle away from the tree. Tree staking uses longer stakes that are set parallel to the tree and are used for smaller trees. Consult a local tree professional to determine which method is best for your tree.
