"I first hired Roper Tree Surgeon & Landscaping in June 2014 to do a major tree cutting on some huge ficus trees.  This project required a truck with a boom, another truck with a large wood-chipper, and an experienced crew capable of cutting big trees so close to my house.  Roper surpassed my expectations in every way, and I was thrilled with the outcome.
When Mr. Roper and I discussed additional projects, I was really impressed with his knowledge, and willingness to help me with free advice and without any sales pitch.   So I hired the company again in July for a large landscaping project, which included:  A new automatic sprinkler system, replacing the front lawn and parkway grass with sod, replacing old shrubs with planting of new flowers, trees, and shrubs, and root pruning ficus trees and replacing the sidewalk destroyed by the roots.
Roper Tree finished the project on time and on budget.  I couldn't be happier with the results!  Mr. Roper takes genuine pride in his work, does not look for shortcuts, and does what he promises to do.   He is driven by customer satisfaction.  I look forward to working with Mr. Roper again, and recommend him wholeheartedly!"

"Very well. The technician was friendly, and very well informed. As we discussed the tree, it became obvious that in addition to his knowledge of trees, he simply loved them. All About Trees will be our go-to arborist hereon."

"Excellent Tree Removal Service by LA Arbor Care In March 2023, our plumbers told us that our sewer pipe ran right under our large Deodar multi trunk pine tree, and that the treeâ  s massive roots had detrimentally damaged the sewer pipe leaving us with no other option other than to remove the tree and grind the stump so they could dig a hole under it to repair the pipe. We received four estimates from different tree removal companies. Miguel Lopez at LA Arbor Care did not provide the least expensive estimate, but we felt that his considerable experience, certifications, and great reviews made his firm our best option. We are so pleased that we selected LA Arbor Care to do this work. They did the work exactly as promised, removing the tree safely and efficiently. We were impressed by their work ethic and quality, and they were very careful not to damage the power and data lines that were coming through the tree branches. They were conscientious about leaving the entire work site impeccably clean â  for example, the tree was adjacent to our swimming pool, and unprompted, they cleaned all the leaves and branches that had fallen into the pool during their process of taking down the tree. Miguel and his staff were friendly and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs tree removal services."

"I recently had Lead Saw Tree Service take out a tree from my yard, and it was such a breeze. They were super easy to deal with from the moment I asked for a quote to when they showed up on time and got the job done within the schedule they promised. It made my day so much easier and stress-free. I'd definitely recommend Lead Saw Tree Service for any tree removal job."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it’s usually too far gone to save.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

You’ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.

You should prune ornamental trees once every other year after the fruit has matured and begun to drop. You should also prune out dead branches whenever you see them. Pruning too often can stimulate more growth, especially in faster growing varieties like Bradford pears.
