"Rafael and his crew have helped me out with challenging emergency tree trimming projects twice. Both were during busy times after major weather events. He and his team are experienced, skilled, careful and efficient, and he responded immediately and showed up incredibly fast when no one else was even available. Honestly, I don't know how they do it. If I could give 6 stars I would. And he's a really nice guy."

"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."

"I called Alejandro on Saturday. We made an appointment for Sunday and he showed up early. He said he could do the job on Tuesday but then called back later in the day Sunday to say he could get it done on Monday. He showed up right on time, did exactly what I asked him to do, cleaned up and left my back yard looking way better than it had before.
I'm going to get an estimate from him on removing an even bigger palm tree that I've hated since we moved in. I plan on using him again later this summer.

"Kerry’s sends one of their arborists over to check out what needs to be done, which is why I called them. Ive had trees killed by guys I hired and the only requirement was a chipper and a buzz saw. I’ve never seen this level of care and professionalism. Prior to trimming boards were placed over the roof and gutters to protect them from damage. Clean up was terrific it, they cleaned out the garden, gutters, side of the garage. It was a great experience from start to finish."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.
