"The crew came out, got right to work, did an excellent job cutting down and trimming 2 trees then they cleaned everything up and even raked up all the little stuff. I will never use another company for my tree service. Thank you Todd and Joe!"

"James is a top knotch vendor. He gave me a great rate on two apple tree stumps. They are really hard and dense. It only took him about half an hour to go 7 inches under grade. He is a most pleasant person to work with. I highly recommend his service."

"Excellent work by Tree Toppin Services â our trees are now back in tip-top shape following the damage incurred from the heavy snows. They were very professional, arrived up on time, worked hard and did a thorough clean up when finished. An overall great experience! We are putting this company on â repeatâ and have been scheduled for an annual evaluation to ensure our trees, shrubs and bushes remain healthy and in great shape. Thank you!"

"John is an incredibly knowledgeable arborist who clearly understands trees and the issues they face here in Colorado. We had two pines that he ended up removing and replacing with Junipers. He gave us options to treat or replace. John took the time to walk through both options plus provided several tree replacement options to chose from. Highly recommend his expertise and honest approach."

"Colby’s Cactus Cowboys did a great job taking down 3 trees, trimming 2 trees, filling in a pond and placing and filling 2 large raised beds with soil. They worked efficiently and kept me informed on their progress. They were open to suggestions and provided knowledgeable advice. I would definitely hire them for any landscaping jobs in the future."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

Lightning can cause massive damage, fires, and openings for other threats like bugs or fungal diseases. Barring any large fires or explosions, it’s difficult to tell how much damage a lightning strike has done until after a thorough inspection. Contact local authorities immediately if lightning strikes a tree in your yard and it causes a fire or explosion.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.
