"Tree man is absolutely the best tree service we have ever had. We spoke to Oscar and he came the next day with his very professional crew of six. He removed two big fallen trees from the storm, and his arborist pointed out several others which were dangerous, which they also removed. We asked if they could take down two other trees, which were so close to a building I didn’t think they would be able to, but miraculously they came down with no trouble. They were very competent and raked, shoveled and used leaf blowers to make everything picture perfect after putting it all in the wood chipper. I cannot tell you how pleasant they were and how capable. Their price was excellent for all the work they did. I HIGHLY recommend them. Faith Meo, owner. Wolcott"

"Joe from GM2 Tree Service was the only contractor that called me to follow up after the site visit. He followed up again a few days later, with a phone call, inquiring if I had made a decision. This was one of the factors that caused me to hire GM2. None of the other contractors called me. All communication was through them was text message. Joe and his uncle also came out for second site visit when I informed Joe I had received a lower bid. Within the hour they were at my property surveying the tree and the property and agreed to match the other contractorâ s bid. The work was exceptional. The crew was prompt, professional, and from my observation very qualified and experienced with difficult tree removal. They completed the work in one day, despite the tree being about 75 feet high, entangled with another tree, and numerous power and communication lines within feet of the tree. They left the property with the least amount of damage to other shrubs and the grounds, again despite the size of the tree. They were very thorough with cleaning the site before they left. They also trimmed another tree on my property to remove limbs from my house. If you need trees removed or trimmed DO NOT HESITATE to hire this company - excellent customer service, knowledgeable and experienced crew, and they delivered on everything they said they were going to do on the job. This company was by far one of the best to perform work on my property, in the 22 years I have owned this house."

"The service was top notch. I had 2 workers at my house and they worked straight through until they were done. They asked for my feedback while they were there. I asked for some minor additional work and they were happy to help. I would definitely recommend. They also cleaned up great."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Cutting down a dead tree is always strongly advisable. Aside from being an eyesore, a dead tree can be extremely hazardous, especially when it’s near people or structures. Even if the tree isn’t near your home, it can still harbor pests and diseases that can potentially spread to nearby plants and homes.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

Yes, cutting a tree's roots can cause it to fall, particularly if major support roots are severed. In extreme cases, trimming roots can affect the tree's structure and stability. Many crucial roots are located just below the soil's surface. If you make severe cuts to roots more than 2 inches in diameter, you risk impacting the tree's water flow and its ability to withstand severe winds or storms. Even cutting roots less than half an inch in diameter under or outside the tree's canopy can cut off its water supply, causing it to decline, die, and eventually topple.
