"Forrest Tree Service did an outstanding job of taking down two huge 70yo elms in my MIL's tiny backyard. It was not an easy job! They also removed several other unsightly trees and shrubs and ground all the stumps. The elm wood was neatly cut and stacked for us for to split for firewood. They happily helped us move it at one point because we needed access 2 places where we had already told them they could stack it. The smaller stuff was chipped and removed. Forrest arranged to have some of the wood milled for what will be beautiful furniture. Gramma's trees will live on for generations in our family! On top of all that, they were just as nice as could be!! Thank you, Forrest Tree Service!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

If you don’t stake a tree that needs support, it could be at greater risk of being damaged or failing completely, whether it uproots or falls over. That could cause damage to your property or other surrounding trees. If you want to grow healthy trees, you may need to stake them for best results.
