"Above and beyond.... VERY PLEASED... Fair price, excellent work, good equipment, prefessional operation.. Was considering doing it myself which would have been a HUGE mistake. Not only did they take down the big tree, they went above and beyond and cleaned up the branches and leaves that had fallen on the patio cover and blocked the skylights. Then on top of that, they made some quick cuts on another tree that was growing wildly near the one taken down. To put the icing on the job, the stump was ground up very well and the ground leveled. ZERO complaints, and to make it easier they were advanced and took Zelle and Venmo. I'm very detail oriented and hard to please butJaime and the crew were frist class."

"I recently hired Rivera Tree Service Inc for tree removal and general maintenance on my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The team arrived promptly at the scheduled time and conducted a thorough assessment of the trees in question. They provided a detailed and fair estimate, explaining the process clearly and answering all my questions with patience and expertise. During the removal and trimming process, the crew demonstrated outstanding professionalism and skill. They took great care to ensure the safety of my property and worked efficiently to complete the job. The site was left spotless, with all debris cleared away, which I truly appreciated. What impressed me most was their commitment to customer satisfaction. The team was friendly, courteous, and genuinely passionate about their work. It's evident they take pride in delivering high-quality service. I highly recommend Rivera Tree Service Inc for any tree-related needs.

"They were complete strangers to me. I walked him around the 4 big trees I wanted removed. He quoted price. We diddled around on an acceptable price. Agreed to it and scheduled a start day and time. Did a good job of cutting them off a ground level and carting off tree remains. I will look to them for future tree work."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.
