Customers say: Quick response

"Juan and his crew were amazing. We had 3 huge cedars and a smaller tree that needed to be taken down in our front and back yards. He and his team were extremely professional and efficient, assuring none of our surrounding neighbors were negatively impacted (especially given they had to assure tree limbs did not fall into surrounding yards, that the landscape wasn't irritated with their large equipment, cleaned up all the debris and wood chips, hauled away the wood, and completed the job in 2.5 days!) We were quoted by many respectable and well-known local tree services, and Golden Forest was by far the cheapest (nearly half or more). Juan was great to work with, and we would highly recommend!"

"Just had to share what a GREAT job Family Tree Service did yesterday removing dead and dying trees on our property. They got the job done in a couple of hours, left the wood cut and neatly stacked for our use while taking away all the debris. Everything clean and tidy when they left. Highly recommend Family Tree Service! 🙂"

"Mario’s crew were very professional and completed the job as requested. We had a large number of trees and bushes removed as well as all of their stumps ground. They cleaned up very well too. I found all of the workers to be present and communicated with me effectively. I’d fully recommend them to anyone !!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Some trees, such as silver maples, birches, sycamores, and scotch pines, shed their bark naturally. If your tree is not one that does this, it might have fallen prey to pests, fungi, or diseases. It could also simply be suffering from an extreme weather change, such as a snowstorm or heat wave. If you’re still stumped, consulting with a pro can help you diagnose your tree’s specific problem.
