"George and his crew showed up a bit early and got right to work. We had previously gone over the trees we needed removed and they did exactly what we agreed to. The work was A+. Minerva, Georgeâ s wife, handles the business end. She is very nice and extremely accommodating. They were a bit higher with their estimate than other firms we had out to view the job, but they had the most thorough walkthrough with us and pointed out issues that no other firm mentioned like calling PG&E out to show where the gas line passed 2 of the trees we wanted cut down. I cannot recommend Georgeâ s Tree Service highly enough"

"Dock, Dock took the time to come out to evaluate with me the problems I was having with my lawns. I discussed with him what I liked yo have done with my problem lawns and he give some of his expertise suggestions to also add to the project. Dock did a very professional job and has a down to earth personality. My lawns are finally starting to look healthy because of all his attention to detail with starting the project, adding the products as was discussed, and all his diligence in following each phase of my lawn procedure. I know I can depend on him for any future lawn or landscaping work I need to have done."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Tree roots don’t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It’s a good idea to have repairs on any foundation cracks you’re concerned about.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

Peach trees grow to be about 25 feet, so keep this in mind for pruning as well. If you plan to DIY, you’ll need to be comfortable working on a ladder. Without pruning, peach tree branches can sprawl nearly as wide as the tree grows tall, so make sure to plan pruning sessions at least once per year in the spring for controlled growth. And if you’re working on a ladder, be sure to follow all safety precautions, especially if you’ll be dealing with falling branches.

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.
