"P&J does fantastic work. I am more than pleased. Joe is an arborist and has keen knowledge of trees, when and how they should be pruned and groomed or even removed. P&J removed three trees and many shrubs, pruning and shaping many other trees. Stump grinding was done to the removed trees. His crew of seven and himself showed up on time at 8am and they were done at 1130am. Amazing! They are licensed, bonded and insured."
"Wonderful - the workers were fast and efficient. I will definitely hire them again and recommend them to friends and neighbors. They cleaned up after their work 100+%."
"John N Eddie were great to work with. They were both friendly and highly professional throughout the entire process. They used professional equipment to complete the tree removal and stump grinding efficiently. Whether we were talking before the work started or during the job, they were always courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. They arrived around 8:15 a.m. and completed the entire project by approximately 1:00 p.m. After removing the trees and grinding the stumps, they thoroughly cleaned the work area. They also repaired my fence after finishing the job, as they had needed to open it to access and remove a tree in the backyard. I was very pleased with the quality of their work and attention to detail. I would definitely recommend John N Eddie to anyone looking for a professional and reliable company for tree removal and stump grinding."

"Brian Lozano of Lozano Tree Care did a great job! He was referred to me by a girlfriend who lives just a few blocks away. Evidently, Lozano Tree Care had done several properties on her street, too. Brian was very communicative. I needed about a 60 ' +/- tree removed and then get the stump removed also. He and his crew were great. Worked so hard, nice guys and cleaned up the property to the 'T'! His price was more than competitive. I've been referring them to friends ever since and will be happy to continue to do so. They were great!"
"JORGE FROM TREE OPS IS A LIVE SAFER--LITERALLY. My cat, Peter, found himself 30 feet high in a Redwood tree. I called over fifteen other arborists before I called Jorge. Not only did he offer to get Peter down for free, he came over within the hour. Peter was on ground level within 20 minutes. I can't thank this man enough. Thank you so much! He seemed very skilled climbing that tree, so I highly recommend this company for any of your tree needs. Very fair and compassionate!"
"Ricardo (owner of the company), along with his brother Eliseo (who came to the house to give us the estimate), were both professional made the experience go very smoothly. The estimate was right on for what I wanted to pay. As I have a large yard, the worked on both back and front yard trimming everything from topping off 15ft. trees (natural look, not just a straight cut), to large branches on the Juniper trees. Cut down 4 large Oleanders. Trimmed many bushes, etc. Brought in a large chipper, cleaned up everything from the yard to the street. The project was down by 3 workers, Eliseo and Ricardo. They came on time the day the work was scheduled. Got right to work. I will be hiring them again. I can highly recommend them."
"We were thrilled with the work Ramirez did on our backyard landscaping. The staff were professional, timely, and highly skilled. We especially loved the stamped concrete patio, the elegant paved border, and the lava rocks. They planted over 100 plants and expertly installed our irrigation system. Roberto and his team have been incredibly responsive, even handling additional small tasks like irrigation fixes. We highly recommend their services."
Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.
Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.
An arborist specializes in tree care, performing tasks such as pruning, treating diseases, and removing hazardous trees. They also assess soil conditions, plant trees, and develop landscaping plans to ensure healthy growth. They also manage debris cleanup, inspect equipment, and record maintenance activities. Arborists often collaborate with landscapers and professional tree maintenance services, applying their specialized knowledge and problem-solving skills to maintain tree health and safety.
Many consider the Fraser fir to be the most popular type of Christmas tree, but which type of tree sells out near you can depend on region and decorating trends that year. For example, the Leyland cypress is especially popular in the Southeast, according to the National Christmas Tree Association.
The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
