"From quote to finish, Abel and his employees were wonderful. Quote was reasonable for the amount of trees that needed trimming. The guys who did the actual work were professional, thorough, and did a great job. Everything was cleaned up before they left. I would definitely recommend this company."

"Work was done for our HOA. The original estimate was for pruning, fertilizing, and spraying to inhibit olive growth. Since we know little about how to maintain those trees, we were prepared to pay the original quote that included the spraying. We were impressed that he was honest and let us know that spraying should not be done at this time of year and that we would only need to pay half of what we were quoted. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and cleaned up completely when they were done. We will definitely use them again to spray (at the right time of year!) and to maintain those trees."

"I can't say enough about the professionalism and excellent service Torres Tree Service provides clients. I initially contacted them and they were able to go to my property and give me a quote without my having to meet them. The price they gave was very competitive, and we eventually negotiated a final price that beat the competition. They showed up to the property promptly at 8:30 am and were done with the job in under two hours. They were fast, clean, and very professional. Their entire process, from making the appointment, to confirmation emails and calls, to follow-up and follow-through, was exceptional. A true five-star experience.

"Luis and his team did a fabulous job with our trees. He always called me
back when I had questions and responded with expertise and
professionalism. We had a large Chinese Elm in the back yard that had
not been trimmed for several years, an Avocado tree that needed
professional attention, a Chinese Orchid and 3 trees in the front yard.
The guys were punctual, worked efficiently and cleaned up the entire
yard . They were also thoughtful enough to put the potted plants back in
their right places. We're extremely pleased with the results and will hire them again.

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.

You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn’t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree’s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and oak wilt. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.

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.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

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.
