"The trees did not look as good as after previous trimmings and the wind blew out a lot of debris that afternoon with some dead branches remaining stuck high up. I had to ask for heavy pots to be returned to their spots. Adequate service, but not outstanding."

"The boss and workers were professional and cleaned up their mess of tree branches. They took the two dead trees out easily without having to climb either one. It took them 45 minutes from start to finish and I paid $800. A good deal for Evergreen."

"I had three very tall palm trees removed. I have several large cactus.. some in ground and some in large pots. They either protectively covered them or moved them. After trees removed.. they put all large pots back in place. I watched as they worked.. they did everything in a save manner.. careful... cautious. Very professional.. my opinion... fair price for tree removal. It was a little windy... neighbors behind me... got some debris in their back yard... MG owner... Marvin... offered to go and clean up anything in my neighbors yard. Neighbor... threw a couple palm fronds back over wall... and said thank you.. but he could do the rest. Bottom line... fair price, done safely, to my satisfaction.. I will call MG Landscape for all future tree trimming or removing. Excellent service."

"The crew arrived on time with the proper equipment to perform work on 40’ to 50’ tall trees. They trimmed everything professionally and it was obvious they knew what they were doing. The project was completed in a timely manner. They trimmed everything according to their bid and even more. Everything was cleaned up and when they left our yard looked beautiful! We highly recommend them and they will do our tree trimming the next time we need it done."

"The two men listened to what I wanted. Then went to work. They were respectful of the surrounding plants and yard. They did a wonderful job trimming and thinning our Japanese Black Pine. The shaping came out great. They also cleaned up the yard and hauled away all trimmings. And cleaned the sidewalk I will recommend Personalized Tree Service,and will use them again."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

It’s possible, although a lot depends on the cause of damage and what steps you take. If the remaining parts of the maple tree are alive and not under attack by disease or pests, they can often be saved even if large portions of the maple tree have died. Frequent watering, careful pruning, mulch, and any recommended fungicides or insecticides can all help with survival.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

Yes, many services include stump grinding to eliminate tripping hazards and improve aesthetics.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.
