"Adam and his crew arrived right on time and described how he planned to perform the tree trimming then got to work. Completely satisfied with the results on both trees. Pricing was reasonable. Thoroughly cleaned work area when the job was complete. Highly recommend Adam for your arborist related projects."

"Olaf and his team did an amazing job trimming 4 large trees and 1 large wall of hedges on my property. His price was fair, his team was efficient and respectful, and the overall experience was great end to end. We also received multiple compliments from neighbors on the end result. Would recommend their services to anyone."

"We recently had the opportunity to work with Brothers landscaping, I can't say enough positive things about them. Luis was very professional and helped us designed a wonderful backyard with a rose garden and a play area for the kids and an additional area where the dogs could do their business. Brothers landscape executed our vision perfectively. His crew was on time and keep their area very organized throughout the project. Luis gave me a completion date and finished on time and stayed on budget. If you're looking for a straightforward guy with straight forward pricing, look no further."

"Escobar's tree service did a great job helping us clean up our overgrown yard. They trimmed all the trees and shrubs, removed a tree stump in the front yard, pulled all the weeds, removed any dead foliage, blew the leaves away and took the extra time to brush out twigs and leaves that had made their way into our artificial turf. The owner was very responsive to our questions and quickly scheduled to come out only a couple days after meeting with him for the estimate. He came out with a 5-person crew who knocked out the work in a few hours and hauled everything away. I plan to use his services again in the future and highly recommend."

"The company responded to a quote request same day and had someone to look at the 9 very tall palm trees that we wanted cut down. He gave such a good price ( we had gotten quotes pre-Covid) so I hired them. They came the following week at the day we wanted. Their crew worked for 10-1/2 hrs straight. They had all the equipment so that no one was climbing the trees. There was such a mess I thought they wouldnâ t be able to finish same day but they did! They cleaned all the mess and put all the potted plants back in place. I am very pleased and have been recommending their company to friends."

"Sal and his crew provided excellent service. He shows a particular concern for the overall health of the tree, and uses his skill as a certified Arborist to assess where the tree is in its life cycle, what particular stresses or diseases it may be presently subject to, and recommends a course of action which is best for the tree's continued health and survival. He also pays particular care to any wildlife which might be nesting in the tree at the time.
I would recommend Sal's company (S & H Tree Service) to anyone and everyone. I will call no other man for the job, and intend to use him exclusively from now on.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

The speed of your tree root removal process depends on a few different factors, including the size and type of tree. However, the fastest method of killing tree roots is applying chemical herbicide, which starts working quickly and efficiently. But this removal method has its drawbacks, such as having a negative effect on the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. Other options like rock salt and stump grinding work relatively quickly and cause less damage to your yard.

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task.
