"Excellent service. Prompt evaluation. Reasonable price. On time for the job. They cleaned everything up. Also, communicated everything they were doing and why. We had a large tree that had several years of neglect, it now looks beautiful. They also removed a row bushes that my wife hated. Thank you Daniel and team!"

"Prompt response and able to do the project the same day and cleaned up everything including old branches at the end of the project. Might have taken a bit more off the branches than I’d like, but I’m no arborist and they certainly removed all the dead/non-leaf branches at a great price."

"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."

Customers say: Terrific value

"A very professional man! He brought his very hard working son to help. I would highly recommend this company! Because of a very sick dog, I thought I was going to have to replace my carpet. I was looking for a "name brand carpet cleaner" but found him on home adviser. Very glad I gave him a try! I will deff call him back next time! A good, hard working family man! Very happy with the results!"

"This company came in a little higher priced than the other couple of bids. TOTALLY WORTH IT! The arborists know their trees, and knew exactly what ours needed. We were scheduled in a timely fashion, the crew showed up on time, and finished surprisingly fast. Everyone was professional and friendly. Our family highly recommends Save A Tree, as we are having them back in the fall to trim a fruit tree!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

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.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.
