"Danne is excellent, and does the work himself (with a partner or two) for a reasonable price and cleans up completely afterwards. He also knows his stuff. I am so happy that my live oak tree has been cut back significantly thanks to his expertise, which told him that my radical plans for the tree could indeed be carried out without damaging it. Friendly, reliable and kind. Get a quote from this guy!"

"The site assessment and quote were extremely easy and transparent due to a slick app that itemizes the tree removal by type of tree/trunk diameter, with photos, then automatically generates a quote. The crew showed up right on time and were done on schedule. Super happy with the work and would recommend to anybody looking for tree removal services in the East Bay!"

"Green Lane was very reliable and professional. Franklin was very knowledgeable and we appreciated how he came to check in on the team during the service. In total they took care of 8 trees including a removal, done speedily and no mess left behind. Will be working with them again for any and all of our future tree related needs."

"Daniela was top notch. She made contact timely and estimate was reasonable. I could not be present, so she kept me in the loop via phone, text, and email. The estimate process was pleasant and professional. Daniela knew exactly what I needed and sent photos to clarify. The day of service, she called to announce when the crew arrived and started as well as updates and photos at time of completion. I couldn't be more satisfied. I will certainly use North Bay Tree Service again."

"I had a massive Canary palm tree that needed to be removed. Eduardo promptly responded to my request for an estimate and gave me a fair and reasonable quote. The next day, he arrived on time with a professional and energetic crew. I watched as they made the impossible possible. The tree removal and stump grinding were safely and meticulously done in one day! I was truly amazed. I appreciated how kind, considerate, and conscientious they were - not only to me, but my neighbors as well. I give Heavenly Tree Service my highest recommendation."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Tree pruning is a common and helpful tree maintenance technique that involves carefully cutting and trimming unwanted branches so that the tree can continue to grow and thrive. Pruning is done carefully and intentionally. Tree topping is a frowned-upon method that involves removing and cutting most or the entirety of the top of the tree, including structurally important branches.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.
