"Erik was great in helping cut 5 trees in my backyard. They were about 35 to 40 feet tall and average 15” in diameter. Some of the branches overhung my roof. Him and his crew worked quickly, safely, and efficiently. Since i was cutting down an invasive tree, he helped work with me to cut groves in the stump and give me time to treat each stump as it was cut. I would highly recommend to anyone."

"Professional, efficient, knowledgeable, trimmed a large sycamore tree in the front yard, cleaned up and left no trace that they were here! The tree is now beautiful, nicely shaped and not resting on the roof of the house any longer. Great service, would definitely hire again !"

"Daniella showed up right away to give an estimate. This is highly commendable, as I was treated to a “no show” to other tree contractors after scheduling. Daniella’s team arrived on schedule and did a beautiful pruning job on my 2 huge evergreens, then completely cleaned up. I am so heartened such a great company is out there. They explained everything, and were just so efficient and courteous."

"JORGE FROM TREE OPS IS A LIVE SAFER--LITERALLY. My cat, Peter, found himself 30 feet high in a Redwood tree. I called over fifteen other arborists before I called Jorge. Not only did he offer to get Peter down for free, he came over within the hour. Peter was on ground level within 20 minutes. I can't thank this man enough. Thank you so much! He seemed very skilled climbing that tree, so I highly recommend this company for any of your tree needs. Very fair and compassionate!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

Trees that flower in the spring—like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear—should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you’ll actually remove what would’ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.
