"A. P. took down a very large and dangerous ash tree branch. It was obvious to the arborist, Angel, that the branch would snap back on the cutter if not done properly. He safely brought it to the ground. We are so pleased with A. P.â s prompt and professional service, we hired them to remove a tree stump in the front yard. Weâ re very confident A. P. will do an excellent job. Also, they will call utilitiesâ marking for us. This company knows itâ s business!"

"Demir came out and took down the Aspen tree that was fallen and unsafe and hanging on another tree branch on a Sunday, then came back with the crew the next morning. They did a great job and the aspens look really healthy now and safe for the next windy day in Colorado. They even raked up and cleaned the backyard. I would definitely hire Hernandez Tree service again - excellent job and reasonably priced !"

"This team of personable young dudes was so much fun to watch working! They were extremely efficient, friendly and highly skilled. They took down our 50 plus foot Aspen, which stood in a flower garden. They worked around so as not to do damage to blooms and plants! Clean up was also great. I would highly recommend Caleb and the crew and will use them again if I need tree projects completed."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

Licensing requirements for arborists, also known as tree surgeons, vary by state and municipality. Many areas require a license, which often involves specialized education and experience. Even if not mandated, it's wise to hire a licensed professional as they tend to have more experience. Beyond licensing, look for certifications from organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), as this indicates a higher level of expertise. Certified arborists must typically pass a comprehensive exam. Always confirm that the arborist has a business license and is fully insured to protect yourself from liability. Seeking positive recommendations from local homeowners is also a good step in finding a qualified professional.
