"I have hired AA Tree care 3 times for tree trimming and removal, and each time, the service was excellent. Albert is pleasant, intelligent, respectful, honest. His crew is professional, efficient and they left the work site even cleaner than before they came. I will continue to hire them for future jobs."

"My request was the following: I wanted an Arborist, which Bruno is, to examine my tree and tell me exactly how the work would be done. On the work day he arrived and explained to me and his two assistants in great detail the requirements of the job. The tree was trimmed exactly as I requested; the tree will continue to provide a perfect shade canopy over my deck. I hired three different tree companies to trim trees on my property; the results were terrible. The work that Bruno and his crew provided was beyond reproach. When the work was completed, the crew cleaned up the all the debris; their work was meticulous. If you want tree work done, look no further than Bruno Tree Service"

"I loved these guys! They came in to remove a tree between a fence line and ground the stump down. Everyone else I contacted would only cut the tree and wanted twice as much. They did a fantastic job and respected my property. They were here on time and were finished faster then I expected. I have recommended them to a few neighbors who also need work done."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Pruning a tree is a yearly DIY job that involves removing small dead branches, leaves, and blooms to help the tree grow bigger and stronger. You can often complete the job with basic home gardening tools. Trimming a tree, however, removes larger sections to control the direction the tree grows in and protects your home, utility wires, and yard from potentially dangerous branches.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity.
