"Luis and his team in CT (Hartford area) are absolutely outstanding. I do not work for Lars, but I am truly impressed. They removed a maple tree that we damaged and trimmed a large oak tree, and trimmed another maple. Luis is very knowledgeable, and I trust his judgement. He also told me what branches to trim on my magnolia tree. Highly recommend."

"We hired GBE to cut down a dead tree with stump removal and a handful of smaller trees and bushes in our yard. They called back immediately and we received an estimate that same day. Not only were they prompt and meticulous but they were also affordable. We will absolutely hire them again for all of our future tree jobs."

"I would like to start by first saying that I have never felt the need to leave a review for a contractor until now. Right from the start he was very pleasant and professional on the phone. When I met with him he was easy to talk to and gave me a great price, I had three large stumps over 24 inches in diameter and a small one. two of the stumps were right up to a healthy tree that I wanted to save and I was very nervous , but they did a terrific job removing all the stumps and did no damage to the tree I wanted to save. They even went so far as to very cafefully load my pickup truck twice so I could get rid off the chips at my local recycling center. when they were all done grinding they filled the holes and levelled the area for me. My wife and I could not be any more pleased with the work they did. ( I am very particular and picky) We are very happy and would use them again if the need arises again for their services."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Peach trees grow to be about 25 feet, so keep this in mind for pruning as well. If you plan to DIY, you’ll need to be comfortable working on a ladder. Without pruning, peach tree branches can sprawl nearly as wide as the tree grows tall, so make sure to plan pruning sessions at least once per year in the spring for controlled growth. And if you’re working on a ladder, be sure to follow all safety precautions, especially if you’ll be dealing with falling branches.

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.
