"It went great! I have a ton of oak trees on my property that I was concerned about because I will have a kid running around the property soon and wanted someone to come check them out and cut some limbs if needed. I talked to Levi over the phone and he said they could do it no problem. They showed up and got to work right away, it was quick, easy, and very effective. They even bucked the larger pieces up for me to fit in my wood stove at no extra cost. They chipped up all the brush for me and were on their way. Now I’m able to walk around my property on windy days without having to worry about branches falling. Thank you guys again, 5/5 stars on the job, great customer service."

"Pedro phoned immediately after I inquired about my tree removal. When he came to give me a bid, he was right on time! (Two of the others I made appointments with didn't even bother to show up OR call). Both my neighbor and I needed our trees removed. He gave us a VERY REASONABLE bid and said he could do it 2 days later. We said we'd like to get other bids... he was the first one. Well, after getting all the bids we could, we decided on Mountain Tree Care. I phoned Pedro in the evening and told him of our decision. He said they'd be over at 7:30 am the next morning!!! He came with all the equipment necessary to do the job... 3 exceptionally skilled crew members, a chipper, a stump grinder, and a huge truck to haul away the debris. The next morning Pedro arrived at 7:05 am! A few minutes later, the rest of the crew arrived. They started right away. Safety and conscientiousness were high on their list. They removed one tree in my yard and another in my neighbor's. Each limb was roped before dropping it to the ground insuring that our properties were not damaged. And there was a fence between they had to work around as well. No damage whatsoever. They worked non-stop all day! The trees were removed and the stumps ground away. What we figured would take 2-3 days took them one day! The clean-up was exceptional! The next morning I went out to get the mail, and even the street where the chipper and truck were sitting were spotless. Did they sweep the street too??? Bottom line: WE RECOMMEND THEM HIGHLY! They are available, they are safe, they are conscientious, they are hard workers and they are FAIR and REASONABLE!"

"The provider showed up on time as promised. After about 40 minutes the service guy was wrapping up and had to ask him to redo some sections that were clearly not clean. Also missed stairs completely. They did finish it up and final job was fine. Had some trouble communicating with service guy as his English was limited. Wasn't terrible but wouldn't use again.

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

A pro can guide you on the alternatives to tree topping depending on the specific issues within your trees. For example, if you’re dealing with breakage and cracks in your tree, they may suggest canopy reduction, which removes less than 25% of the tree’s limbs. If you’re dealing with lesser damage, some intentional pruning may be all you need. If you’re looking to get a clearer view through your tree, the pro may also try windowing or skirting your tree.

Using Epsom salt to kill a tree stump typically takes between six and 12 months. While this may seem like a long time, it is significantly faster than the natural decomposition process, which can take up to seven years. This method is a viable DIY option for stumps that do not pose an immediate hazard. If you need a faster solution, you can hire a professional for stump removal or grinding, though this may cause more damage to the surrounding ground.
