"The owner of climb and cut tree service, Raul Santos is very professional with reasonable pricing. He and his crew showed up an hour early before the appointment time to make sure that the project was done at the time promised. I will definitely be using his services for other projects around my home. And I would truly recommend him for all types of tree service."

"All work performed was on our front lawn.We had called around to get a few quotes to compare before we settled on Elliott's Sprinkler. They were by far the most professional of the 3. The first one didn't even measure the yard, and never even called us back with a  quote. The 2nd guy did the foot measuring method. While I understand he may have had lots of experience, it still left me a bit unsure. Elliott's Sprinkler sent out Mike. He was very professional. Listened to what I wanted. Then measured out the yard with a measuring wheel. He said we would have a quote for me within 24 hours and would like to some back out and go over it. I only ended up with 2 quotes to work with. The second of the 3 quotes I received the next day. And then Mike came out the next day to go over his quote. Although Elliott's was a little more I still thought they would be the best choice. And I was right. They started out with a blank canvas. 

We had a weed lawn so we had killed everything and had just dirt left. Unfortunately for them we had not watered in quite a while, so when they started digging for the sprinkler lines and drainage, they might as well have been digging in concrete. But I have to say the 2 guys doing the work didn't complain. And man they worked their butts off. It was hot and they kept at it. The first day they got the whole sprinkler system and drainage line done. Next day they started rototilling the ground to prep and level it for sod. I really felt bad that the ground was so hard. Took them a while to get it done and leveled. But again they worked hard with no complaints. By the end of the second day the ground was leveled and ready for sod. They also planted the 24 gallon Blossoming Pear tree. The 3rd day they showed up. The sod was delivered earlier that morning. They got to work quickly. Before I realized it they had the sod down, and had all the plants set in the ground, and the ground cover in place. It was such a transformation. We had not had grass in over a year, and suddenly we did. They finished up and then cleaned up their mess.

When they left, you wouldn't have even known they were there, except for the wonderful yard they left behind. I would like to say that John and his brother did a fantastic job. I will be requesting them when we are ready to do more work.A few days later the curbing guys came out to do the curbing. The curbing is done by a sub-contractor. They did a great job, but the messed up the sod a bit and had moved a lot of the mulch and buried it while doing the curbing. I called Elliott's to see if they could sell me more of the mulch so I could replace it. The next day Dan the owner himself, showed up. He gave me the mulch at no charge and even fixed the areas of sod they had messed up. They really went above and beyond in my opinion to give a great service. I would highly recommend them for any work your going to need. (FYI: Do the concrete curbing work first. We did it backwards, but in the future will be getting all that work done before we lay the sod.) We are going to have them do our backyard as soon as we are ready.

As side note. Please remember that the people who are doing work for you are just that.. PEOPLE. I have seen some people treat workers like this, like they are beneath them. These guys works hard for what they earn. And the last thing they need is someone treating them like they are something less than human. Respect can go a long way towards making this world a better place. It all starts with you. Thanks for reading this and have a great day."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.

Steer clear of the area and contact your utility company immediately. It will have a website portal and/or a phone number to report downed trees and electrical issues. If the tree appears to be on public land, you may want to call your local government and report the issue there, too.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.
