"My extensive project entailed new sod, irrigation, plantings and rock in the front yard. In the back yard, demo of a small patio, and pouring of a huge decorative concrete surface, plus new sod and irrigation. I plan to hire Alex next year to revamp the flower beds in the back as that piece had to wait. Alex and his team were absolutely outstanding. Attention to detail, such as the drainage system, and overall expertise resulted in a complete transformation. Pricing was competitive. Alex was very pleasant to work with. He listens and offers professional guidance. I highly recommend Hermanos Flores Gardening."

"I recently had my deck and porch completed by Geico Builders, and I couldn't be happier! Watching the team build everything from scratch was incredible. My project manager kept me updated throughout the process, assuring me that everything was under control. The workers were not only skilled but also consistently on time, which I really appreciated. They did a fantastic job enhancing my property, and I highly recommend them. If I ever decide to undertake another project, I won't hesitate to choose Geico Builders again!"

"Steven has been wonderful to work with. He's done a few small jobs at my house, including putting in a rock walk way through my backyard. I had started it and realized I wasn't going to be able to finish it after my surgery. He came in and saved the day. Everyday I walk out in my backyard I'm thrilled with the work. He's come back a couple more times to do some smaller jobs and each time he's done a great job!"

Customers say: True professional

"Jamie and his crew were outstanding. Always professional, on time, on schedule, clean and my design was followed perfectly. I am a Facility Manager and have dealt with contractors in several of the trades including concrete for many years. This was top quality work done at a fair price. Jamie listened to what we wanted and made it happen just like we envisioned. We are revamping the front yard in a couple of years and Maranata will be our contractor."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

DIY is risky and not recommended for large trees; professional services ensure safe removal and proper disposal.
