"We have used Sergio and his company maybe 4 times for landscaping. Two of the jobs were pretty big overhauls of what our current yard/landscaping situation was at the time. He was professional, prompt, and so affordable we kept adding more and more to our requests. We have been very happy with the completed projects. Sergio stands by his work, and he didnâ t hesitate to replace a tree that didnâ t make it."

"GreenLine Landscaping & Services LLC did a phenomenal job with the front of my home. They were quick, clean and very considerate. Not only did they bring my vision to life but also contributed to it with suggestions. Some of which were gravel/rock types, along with the plants to make everything stand out. I highly recommend their work. Attached below is an image of the work they did. GreenLine Landscape & Services LLC also took their time to explain the maintenance and cleanup procedures. I will definitely be hiring them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

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.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.
