"â­ â­ â­ â­ â­ A Phenomenal Experience with Sloan's Tree Service! I cannot say enough great things about Sloan's Tree Service! From the very beginning, Aric, the owner, and his wife Madison were a delight to work with. They took the time to truly collaborate with us, ensuring that we got exactly what we wanted. They were attentive to our needs and worked within our budget, which was a big plus! Aric and his team exceeded our expectations in every way. Not only did they schedule and perform the work quickly, but the results were outstanding. They removed two large trees and expertly ground the stumps until they were practically non-existent. Additionally, they cut the remaining wood into firewood-length pieces and stacked them, just as we had requested. The brush was completely cleared, and they left our yard looking immaculate. It's hard to believe the transformation our yard underwent in such a short period of time! Aric and Madison were not just fantastic professionals, but also genuinely lovely people. It was an absolute pleasure to meet and work with them. We can't recommend Sloan's Tree Service highly enough! We will certainly be referring them to all our friends, family, and neighbors. I am thrilled to have finally found a go-to "tree guy". Don't hesitate to give them a call â you won't be disappointed!"

"They are professional, friendly, and they listen carefully. The team that came to the house worked very well together and they cleaned-up very well at the end of the project. We would not hesitate to hire them again for a future project."

"Sam is wonderful, very knowledgeable and passionate about trees. Sam runs a good small business focused on trees. His team pruned my ash tree, which had a lot of overgrowth, broken branches, dead limbs, etc. Sam focused on multiple issues with trees that the other tree services did not raise. I was very happy with the results."
Half way done.
Big lateral limbs with lots of decay!

"D&D Tree Testimonials About us Gallery Contact D&D Tree Tree Service Open today until 7:00 PM GET QUOTE Header image for the site TESTIMONIALS a week ago Hired these fellas to grind down a number of aspen stumps. They were ontime, diligent in their work, cleaned up afterwards and price was reasonable. I recommend them. ? - Rocky i 3 months ago They did an excellent job on our fence! I would highly recommend this company. - Kathy M 12 hours ago Daniel was responsive and accommodating from the first phone call! Once Daniel and his crew arrived with all the equipment they needed to remove 3 large pines, and a dead ash, we knew we chose the right company. Every single gentleman that worked at our house was professional, funny, and so obviously well experienced. Watching the teams work was like watching a symphony, they were all in tune with each other, and anticipated the other guys moves. They were very detail oriented, and worked so hard to protect all the areas that needed to be. They took every scrap away, and left the job site almost better than before they arrived. We are so pleased, and will definitely hire them again! We have more trees, and definitely landscaping that needs to be done! Thanks to ALL of you for an exciting Saturday, and a super job well done! Jocelyn and Alvin"

"Quick response to our quote and took down an 80 foot tree in just a couple of hours. Were really professional. Also went above and beyond by taking some tree limbs that I had already cut down with them. Based on my experience, I would recommend them to all!"

"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 !"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Peach trees don’t tend to live as long as other types of trees and crops. They tend to last only about 12 years, and you shouldn’t expect to see a full peach harvest each of those years, either. Young peach trees need a few years to get established before they produce fruit, but you should have plenty of peaches for your pies and cobblers during their mature years, around years four through eight.

If you’re wondering why tree trunks are painted white in your area, it’s usually to prevent sunscald, a condition where extreme shifts in temperature can cause tree bark to split. Fruit trees are especially vulnerable to sunscald, so this treatment is worth considering if it’s something that affects your trees.

Pruning a tree is a yearly DIY job that involves removing small dead branches, leaves, and blooms to help the tree grow bigger and stronger. You can often complete the job with basic home gardening tools. Trimming a tree, however, removes larger sections to control the direction the tree grows in and protects your home, utility wires, and yard from potentially dangerous branches.

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

Trees are beneficial to the environment and wildlife. If you have an old tree, but it’s healthy, it may be best to avoid cutting it down. However, if it’s showing signs of bug infestation, disease, or is potentially hazardous, then you should contact a tree removal company to cut it down. 

If you are unsure whether you should have it removed or not, then speak with an arborist to determine what is best.
