"Best Tree Service I've ever had. Prompt, extremely responsive, emailed photos right after job completed, fair pricing, and the clean up after the work was finished was exemplary. Strongly sugest you give Willliam a try for your next landscaping tree or shrub trimming job or general landscaping. He's great!, and friendly and professional!"

"I hired Jesus and his team to trim trees and other shrubbery around the front and back of my house. They showed up when they said they would, trimmed all everything to my expectation, and cleaned up when they were done. Excellent job."

"Communication with Jackie was immediate and she scheduled the team in a snap. Was able to give an estimate based on my photos (which I appreciated). The team of guys got the work done (removing 3 spiky, overgrown succulent plants with invasive roots), hauled the plants and cleaned it all up beautifully. Very happy with the results and experience. Photo of before and after (there were 3 like this)."

"Sal and his crew arrived on time, he explained the work to his crew, and they went right to it. I had one tree removed and one trimmed. In no time they were done and cleaned up both operation areas. They were the best group of workers that I have ever hired. I highly recommend Premier and Sal's crew !!!"

"I called Jim in early May to have clearing of limbs that were within 10 feet of my home. There were quite a few big oaks that had to have some major limbs removed and I was quite worried that they did not damage my new deck and parts of the house. Jim was recommended for me by a timber logger I knew and that is why I phoned him in the first place. Jim proved to have both a good sense of humor but also a great group of workers who handled the job professionally and with great care. Being so busy, I had to wait over 3 months before he and crew could do the work. Both my wife and I are very happy with the quality of work and the cleanup. I highly recommend this business."

"It went very well. New lawn, and plants were added to backyard. A brickwork planter was built in front side yard with trees and plants. A small cement sidewalk was added to backyard and some plant removal and tree pruning was done. Looks great! I’ve received lots of compliments."

"My project went great and I am very pleased. There was a lot of vegetation to trim up, clean up, pick up and my yard looked so great when they were finished! They were easy to work with and completed work as planned and on time. I will definitely choose them for my future landscaping projects. Thank you!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

Yes, you should trim the lower branches of your maple tree for safety. Trimming maple trees as they grow helps lift the crown and canopy and trains it to grow straight up. A good rule of thumb is to prune enough branches to leave 6 feet of clearance under the tree.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.
