"Derek and his crew arrived exactly at the time they quoted and worked hard and professionally for 1.5 days trimming 6 large trees of all sizes. They did not just come in and hack but instead they carefully listened to what we were looking for and with precision crafted the trees in such a way that left them beautiful, Derek really knows what he is doing and does not try to sell you on cutting trees that he feels do not pose a threat or are very healthy as is. He is exactly what we were looking for. Our experience in the past is that someone comes in and simply wacks away with no real plan or design in mind. Derek and his crew were also were meticulous in cleaning up after themselves. I will definitely use them again and will recommend them unconditionally. I cannot say enough good things about them. They far exceeded our expectations and we are very picky."

"Rodriguez Tree Services exceeded my expectations. The staff was kind, friendly, and super helpful. They took care of my trees, yard, and they cleaned and removed all the debris. My yard looks a 1000% percent better. I will reach out to them again when my trees need a bit of TLC. I have already recommended them to my neighbors. -Steven"

"Reynaldo and crew from Golden Oaks trimmed back my olive tree and 4 palm trees. They were fast, clean and did excellent work. I am planning on hiring them again for the rest of my trees. They also had the lowest price I found. They even cleaned up the tree trimmings on my neighbor’s side of the fence which I really, really appreciated. A neighbor on the other side of my yard had trimmed their tree near the fence line years ago and left all of those trimmings that fell on my side of the fence for me to clean up. Hire these guys! You won’t be disappointed!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.
