"Mario was great! Called me back. Came when he said he would for an estimate. Arrived on time to remove tree and grind the stump. I contacted 3 other tree services from the internet and one couldn’t show up on time even for an estimate. Another one never returned my call and the 3rd took 3 weeks just for an estimate that was out of reason. Hire Mario if you want a great job at a reasonable cost."

"Sam is wonderful, very knowledgeable and passionate about trees. Sam runs a good small business focused on trees. His team pruned my ash tree, which had a lot of overgrowth, broken branches, dead limbs, etc. Sam focused on multiple issues with trees that the other tree services did not raise. I was very happy with the results."
Half way done.

Customers say: Quick response

"Hernandez tree service gave me a reasonable estimate, very fast service, listened to exactly what I needed, and very safely and professionally took down a very large (but dead) cottonwood tree. I would highly recommend this company to any homeowner needing tree service. My neighbor watched the process with me, and when the tree was down asked for an estimate on their very mature, and large, apple tree. When Hernandez completed my job, the crew went next door and trimmed the dead branches off my neighbor’s apple tree. Two quite satisfied customers!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

Consumers typically do not need to worry about the cost of tree insurance, as professional tree service companies pay for their own coverage. For a tree service business, an average U.S. policy covering about $1 million in general liability costs roughly $40 a month or $500 a year. More extensive policies, providing between $500,000 to $2 million in coverage, can cost between $3,000 and $6,000 annually, depending on the company's size and scope of work. Tree service professionals should speak with an insurance company to determine the right plan for their business.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.
