"We hired Wise Tree Service, LLC for fire mitigation at our cabin outside Westcliffe. We were quoted a fair price, and we were extra happy they were able to do this job while we were on site. The crew was nice, professional, and efficient. They were done in about 4 hours, and did a great job! That made the price even better. If we need tree service again, we know who we'll be calling!"

"Edge and Ivory responded to my request quickly and next day came to our home for a free assessment. They quoted us fairly, and we were on the schedule within the week. They did an amazing job! Our yard is completely transformed, and they did exactly what we asked. We would recommend Edge and Ivory to anyone looking for landscaping services and look forward to future projects with them."

"Forrest did not come in with the lowest bid but sometimes that little extra cost can give you peace of mind. The quality of the work and professionalism of this company was topnotch. I have a 120-year-old home and was concerned about windows and landscape being damaged. But they did a great job taking care of my home and were extremely knowledgeable arborists. I had some very high mature trees, and they were very skilled trimming these. They even went above and beyond to haul away some old branches and debris from the vacant driveway next door. Everyone there was polite and professional. I would definitely hire them again. My only issue - and it was a small one - was that I paid cash but had to wait a few days for the receipt."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

DIY pruning is possible for small trees and shrubs with basic tools. However, for larger trees, more hazardous removals, or to ensure proper pruning techniques are used, it is recommended to hire a professional for safety.

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.

No, you cannot plant a tree above a gas line. Tree roots grow and spread over time and can sometimes dent, crack, or penetrate a gas line. Those same roots may also cause accessibility problems for maintenance or repairs. You can generally plant vegetation with non-invasive root systems, low-growing vegetation, and flower beds near gas lines.
