"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!"

"Took a little while longer than I thought to respond to my request but they must've been busy and did always respond to my queries via text. Once we could agree on a date and time they were prompt, made quick work of the tree needing removal, cleaned up nicely and were very customer oriented. Their price was very reasonable for the job needing to be done and I would recommend them highly and will utilize their services again!"

"Hernandez tree care service was great. Easy to communicate with during estimate process and very helpful in evaluting tree removal and trimming of others. Went above and beyond to cleanup yard from limbs and even removed the fallen leaves we had not cleaned up yet. Also acquired part & repaired a flower bed sprinkler line that incidentally got broken in the neighbor's yard. Will definitely use their services again. Appreciate their business integrity and pride in there work."

"Richard Garcia, owner of Rocosas Tree and Concrete service, was chosen by my wife and I, hired to complete removal of large Elm tree and prune/thin our Ash tree. This work was started early Friday morning 3/7/2023 and completed near 6:PM that same day. Richard Garcia, with a crew of 3 additional men, performed our every request safely and much better than we expected. They even cleaned up better than we expected plus Richard repaired our fence just because he saw it needed 3-4 cedar fence boards replaced and replacement boards were nearby. Richard & crew also cleaned all gutters on our home. I m in a wheelchair and it was easy to see that Richard intended to leave our outside chores completed for us. We were and are so very appreciative of Richard and Rocosas Tree Service. We cannot recommend them enough, easily 100%, nothing left undone. Thank you again Richard."

"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."

"Ben is a well educated, communicative and reasonable arborist. Answered all my questions, and I had plenty with 19 tress. Cleaned up completely. Very reasonable prices. Didn't tell me it would be $250. to $300. before he even saw the projects which other services did. Will absolutely hire again. A pleasure to work with and look forward to working with him again."

"John is an incredibly knowledgeable arborist who clearly understands trees and the issues they face here in Colorado. We had two pines that he ended up removing and replacing with Junipers. He gave us options to treat or replace. John took the time to walk through both options plus provided several tree replacement options to chose from. Highly recommend his expertise and honest approach."

"Professsioal-Caleb and his coworker know what they are doing and work well together. Careful-No damage to house, roof, fence, deck or deck railing eventhough several large branches were removed nearby. Polite and easy to work with. Obilging-Did several extra without extra charges, Made sure we were satisfied with his work "No trace of work left behind" Everting was perfectly cleaned up. I would give 5 stars + and would not hesitate to hire again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

Costs reflect the size of the tree or shrub, the complexity of the task, location accessibility, and disposal needs, and comprehensive quotes vary accordingly.
