"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"

"We were very pleased with Dock of Streamline Management for a variety of reasons. First of all, his communications skills are very good. Heâ s responsive and reliable, which is something thatâ s very important (and sometimes rare) in a contractor. He did a good job and he got it done in a timely manner. Very professional and pleasant. He handled the normal, unexpected problems with grace and efficiency."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.

Peach trees don’t tend to live as long as other types of trees and crops. They tend to last only about 12 years, and you shouldn’t expect to see a full peach harvest each of those years, either. Young peach trees need a few years to get established before they produce fruit, but you should have plenty of peaches for your pies and cobblers during their mature years, around years four through eight.

It's easy to misidentify trees that appear to be maple trees due to similarities in leaf shapes. Sweetgum, sycamore, and yellow poplar all have leaf shapes and appearances similar to maples. The fact that around a dozen maple tree varieties exist, only about half of which are considered common, makes misidentification an often typical occurrence.  

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.
