"J Lopez tree service communicated with me very well and I obtained a very fair price. I would recommend them to anyone. They cut down a tree for me and grinded it as low as they could go so they would not hit my main line."

"The boss and workers were professional and cleaned up their mess of tree branches. They took the two dead trees out easily without having to climb either one. It took them 45 minutes from start to finish and I paid $800. A good deal for Evergreen."

"Very well. They were on time, professional and cleaned up all the mess from trimming the trees. They were very nice to work with as well. I would refer them to anyone who is looking for their trees trimmed well or taken completely down (in my case both) in a timely manner without trying to oversell me or try and charge more than the job is worth.

"The project was broken into three phases, and we've now completed the first two with the third being completed over the next few weeks.  The first phase--clean-up was perfect--his crew was right on schedule, were a delight to work with, amazingly helpful and trustworthy.   An A+, and exactly to the approved cost estimate.
Phase Two: landscape design, choosing materials and plants....Tom hit it out of the park with his tireless commitment to painstakingly conceptualize, design, and select individual plants one by one.  We worked together on ideas, met at nurseries to make final selections, and he would make revision after revision until he felt it was perfect.  Another A+.
Phase Three: installation. Now that the plants have been placed throughout the yard and all other material: stones, ground covers, mulch, etc. has been selected, all  installation will be done over the next week.  I'm 100% certain it will be another A+---that's the only way Tom and his crew operate.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning trees is important for several reasons. It improves tree health and strength by removing dead, diseased, or unwanted branches, which in turn encourages new growth and can help treat disease. For fruit trees, proper pruning can lead to a larger and better-quality harvest. Pruning also enhances safety by removing weak limbs that could break and fall, potentially causing injury or property damage, especially during storms. Beyond these functional benefits, pruning can also improve a tree's appearance. To ensure pruning is done correctly for the tree's long-term health, consider hiring a professional.

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.

Palm trees aren’t much different than your typical tree removal. Removing a palm tree is a standard procedure as long as pros have the proper tools and supplies. For DIYers, however, there are some risks associated with palm tree removal. Palm trees have spiky fronds, bark, and patches of hefty wood. So, it’s best to let an experienced tree service pro remove a palm tree.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.
