"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."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

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.

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.
