"I hired Jesus and his team to trim trees and other shrubbery around the front and back of my house. They showed up when they said they would, trimmed all everything to my expectation, and cleaned up when they were done. Excellent job."

First, it was really hard to find a tree service to do this work.  the work that was needed wasn't exactly something that an arborist would do. In fact, four arborist said no thanks.  I had these horribly overgrown pepper trees (that I don't even like anyway but hey - they provide privacy from my neighbor) and our backyard hillside is just deep rooted brush to keep it from sliding down.  Not sexy work by any means, but it is what it is.  So, B&J said they would do the work.  The person who gave us the quote was very professional, understood what we needed, quickly wrote up an estimate - couldn't really read his handwriting, but he confirmed everything.  I choked on the price but knew that nobody else would bid on it and the trees were overgrown by a good 25 feet.  Yeah, it was bad.  He warned us that trimming the trees back as far as we all agreed we needed to, would leave it looking bare ("it's gonna look like a bunch of sticks").  But we marched onward anyways.  We set the date, they arrived promptly with a large crew and began their work. 

They did an "ok" job.  and here's why i say it was just ok.  Yes, they did exactly what we asked them to do, and it looked as they said it would look.  It's hideous - a bunch of sticks jutting out from the dirt.  However, they didn't remove the stumps (where we asked them to take it all out) they just chainsawed it at ground level.  One tree root they did remove, and left it looking similar to my kid's room after they've changed their clothes - like a tornado hit it.  A whole in the ground and random dirt flung everywhere. Couldn't they have used a rake to at least semi-smooth it out?  Whatever. Like I said, it was a dirty job that nobody else wanted to do.  So, yes, they cleaned up all the leaves and the branches, but only after scraping up the entire side of my house (brown branches on a white stucco house - is not pretty), leaving the fence laying on the side yard so I had to get that put back on myself, one broken sprinkler head that I fixed myself and what looked like a broken sprinkler pipe in another part of the yard. 

I called and asked them to come back out and cut a branch they missed, and dig up where the sprinkler was leaking. Turns out it was a sprinkler line next to the bush, but didn't appear to be directly related to their work.  It did take them several days to return my call when I asked them to come back out, actually they never did call me back, except five days later to say, "we'll be at your house in 30 minutes."  Had to scramble and leave work and race home.  While there, again, very friendly and nice and took out another root of a bush and said "Bobby will have to call you".  That was about three weeks ago. No call back.  so, I give up.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.
