"Very dependable, and courteous. Knowledgeable with shaping, trimming of my large Eucalyptus tree . It looks so beautiful now. Not worried about any branches coming down this winter. They arrived in a day, trimmed , and cleaned up everything. The tree hadn't been touched in almost 40 years and after a limb had fallen, I was going to have in removed. After talking to Oscar, I went with a severe trim. Very glad, that was the way to go."

"The team at AB Tree Service did an amazing job at my home. They carefully trimmed each tree, removed one that was now considered dangerous, and then proceeded to treat my trees with nutrients and for disease and pests. The trees have never looked better. Oh, they even went into neighbors yards (with permission) to clean up any branches that landed there. My place was spotless when they left."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.

Service costs depend on several factors, including the system's age, type, and size, as well as the complexity of the repair. Labor costs and whether replacement parts are necessary also play a significant role.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.
