"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

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.
