"Summit Tree Service Inc is Top Notch. Highly recommend Summit Tree Service, Inc. They did a great job taking down two 45â tall trees near our main road and utility services. Their attention to detail and clean up is amazing. The area was left in better shape than it was prior to tree removal. There is no indication that the trees taken down were ever there. They did such a thorough job cleaning up. Excellent value. Top notch company."

"I can't recommend O'Shaugnessy Trees enough. Talked to Connor on a Monday and the trees/shrubs were finished by Wednesday afternoon. He did a fantastic job with a fair price on a really tough project. Hire him!"

"Pedro Lucas did an excellent job removing 11 large trees from our property. He was on time when he came to estimate the job. His quote was reasonable. He performed the work and the cleanup, as we agreed, in a most timely manner. I do not hesitate to highly recommend him for any tree service work you may have."

"I hired Donnie after we had several trees come down during one of the windstorms earlier this year. He had the best quote but I was even more impressed with the quality of work. He did exactly what he said he would do, he charged exactly what he said he would charge, and he left the property as if he hadnâ t even been there. Anytime I need a tree removed I will be calling him. Great service!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.
