"I can not say enough good things about L Elene's Tree Service!! Lomberto came out to give me a quote same day. Scheduled service within a week. Lomberto and his crew showed up as promised and removed both my palm trees. They were professional, efficient, hard-working, and very personable. I was amazed at how they worked as a team - they were in sync with each other as they performed the various tasks - their teamwork was impeccable! They protected not only my roof, water heater and windows, but the neighbors as well. They cleaned both properties and left them looking much better than when they arrived. I HIGHLY recommend L Elene's Tree Service!! If you call Lomberto first, you won't need to get any other quotes!"

"Great Tree Service Company! Super nice, efficient and careful. It was a difficult huge tree to remove with obstacles in the way so it took a few extra days, however they worked hard, communicated with us and got the job done at no extra cost. We would definitely use them again and refer them to others. Super nice family owned business."

"I hired Imagine Tree Service Inc. owned by David Jiménez. He had come out, evaluated the job and gave me a great price bid and also demonstrated he really understands tree botany / tree trimming / thinning extremely well / knows what he is doing as a contractor. I was a contractor myself for over 20 years and know the business well. He sent out one of his two crews the next day & trimmed two 80' high redwoods which were dumping needles & branches in our pool almost daily. The crew worked for an entire day and then cleaned out all the pool mess -- even though they had covered it with tarps there lot that was not caught -- as well as the surrounding yard. Did a terrific job. I can recommend them to anyone looking for an arborist / tree trimming. They do tree removal too though that was not part of the our job needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.

It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.

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.

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.
