"They were very professional, did a fabulous job and at a reasonable cost. I have used them before to do the Ventura County mandatory fire abatement tree trimming and they did a great job with that too. But this time it was a very large live oak removal due to disease that was determined to be a hazard to our house. From the time of determination and submitting the permit paperwork from an arborist, to removal of a two stemmed trunk --11 days including grinding the huge,two-pronged stump. From review and bidding, to actual removal the team was courteous, prompt and thorough. Can't say enough good about them. BTW, did I mention that they beat out two other bids! Enough said!"

"Kerry’s sends one of their arborists over to check out what needs to be done, which is why I called them. Ive had trees killed by guys I hired and the only requirement was a chipper and a buzz saw. I’ve never seen this level of care and professionalism. Prior to trimming boards were placed over the roof and gutters to protect them from damage. Clean up was terrific it, they cleaned out the garden, gutters, side of the garage. It was a great experience from start to finish."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

Many species, especially when well-established, are not fans of transplantation. You’ll need to decide if you want to risk splashing the cash, understanding that transplantation isn’t always successful. Again, this is where hiring a pro is helpful, as they can give you all the essential info you need to ensure your tree stands a fighting chance.

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.
