"I recently hired Rivera Tree Service Inc for tree removal and general maintenance on my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The team arrived promptly at the scheduled time and conducted a thorough assessment of the trees in question. They provided a detailed and fair estimate, explaining the process clearly and answering all my questions with patience and expertise. During the removal and trimming process, the crew demonstrated outstanding professionalism and skill. They took great care to ensure the safety of my property and worked efficiently to complete the job. The site was left spotless, with all debris cleared away, which I truly appreciated. What impressed me most was their commitment to customer satisfaction. The team was friendly, courteous, and genuinely passionate about their work. It's evident they take pride in delivering high-quality service. I highly recommend Rivera Tree Service Inc for any tree-related needs. Their combination of expertise, efficiency, and exceptional customer service makes them the best in the business. Thank you, Rivera Tree Service Inc, for a job well done!"

"Xpert Landscape did an amazing job on my botched irrigation system. George came as promised on time and fixed everything perfectly. Very reasonable price will definitely recommend to friends and family, and any future landscaping problems will only call Xpert Landscaping. Highly recommend 5 stars."

"My home has 5 gigantic deodor pine trees and it is always a chore weeding through all the certified arborists and tree services to find the right guys for the job but this time I decided to go with my gut and give this young crew full of passion for the job a chance to do it ..I have to say they far exceeded my expectations and tirelessly worked pruning and raising the giant branches climbing all the way to the top paying careful attention to every detail and need of the trees and I think the images of the finished trees will speak for themselves but I know the next time they need work done who to call : Jimmy's Tree Care, Inc. I can highly recommend this crew working together like a well oiled machine facing any challenges headon"

"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."

"Highly recommend Oasis Turf and Landscape. Steven D worked tirelessly to make sure we were happy and was available throughout every phase of our project. Walter, Tony and the rest of the crews did beautiful work on our front and backyard despite running into several weather delays. The quality of their work is immediately apparent. I would definitely hire them again. Thanks"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.
