"P&J does fantastic work. I am more than pleased. Joe is an arborist and has keen knowledge of trees, when and how they should be pruned and groomed or even removed. P&J removed three trees and many shrubs, pruning and shaping many other trees. Stump grinding was done to the removed trees. His crew of seven and himself showed up on time at 8am and they were done at 1130am. Amazing! They are licensed, bonded and insured."

"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!"

"Love the design and work that went into determining what plants would go where, and my goals for my yard. I appreciate how Amelia looked at the sunlight, shade, and tested the soil. Since we have been finishing up the renovations, I haven’t hired her for installation yet, but I will soon!"

"Rodrigo was a pleasure to work with. Super friendly. Very fast response. Fair prices. Did a fantastic job at trimming my trees, planting a new tree, and clearing out some trees I needed removed. As an added bonus, they cleaned up completely so that you could not even tell all of that work was done. I am referring them to my friends and will certainly hire them again."

"Mago is keeping his promise well. He always response when you call. The price is reasonable. He knows a lot of things. He put up a big piece of drywall for me which came from the cutoff by water damage dry out process. I also asked him to disconnect my dishwasher and reconnect it 3 days later (I did the floor installation which goes under the dish washer). He did come back for reconnection as promised. For the drywall put up, I hoped he could make it more flush by add one more layer of the joint compound after the initial one. Overall, He is good"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re taking down a tree that you don’t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it’s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or dying trees without infecting nearby trees. 

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.
