"This company, ADF Services, came out the same day to give me an estimate. The owner was at my house the next morning and completed trimming a large branch from my tree that was intruding on my neighbor's property. The owner Ricardo Velasquez Sr. and his son, Ricardo Velasquez Jr., gave fast, professional, and accurate service. Many thanks!"

"Top-Notch tree service has really lived up to its name every time I've used them. They've trimmed trees for me as well as taking out trees that unfortunately had to go. Their people are extremely skilled at what they do and have taken on Jobe requiring a huge crane to complete. I've literally never been concerned about any aspect of what they advised needing to be done."

"After our neighbor’s recommendation we hired D & D Tree Service & Landscape to build a fence for our backyard. We are extremely pleased with their work and the company. Everyone was extremely efficient and professional. Our new fence is beautiful. We have also decided to hire them to install a sprinkler system and sod in the backyard."

"Devora tree service did an amazing job trimming our trees. We were concerned about our turf getting damaged during the process but, Jesus had said that the crews would lay down tarps to protect the turf and they did. They were there on time and cleaned up very well. I will definitely hire them again in the future."

"Sam and Jake removed many aspen trees from my property and trimmed several other trees. They did exactly what they said they would do and they charged per their quote without any overruns. They were professional, efficient and worked safely. They delivered quality customer service and I would definitely hire them again for future tree services."
Half way done.

"This company has trimmed three trees for me over the last year. The reason I keep having them back is they listen to exactly what I want, and they are fast. The last tree I had them trim they had to go into my neighbors yard to get to part of my tree. They were awesome and quite considerate of their property. Now they might be a little pricey but sometimes it is worth better service than price. You really do get what you pay for. I will use only them for trees for here on out."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

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.)

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.
