"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"

"We needed a company that could get into very tight spaces between neighbors & our home. Their skill in trimming and pruning our trees was perfect. We were not looking for tree removal, but keeping them smaller, healthier and safer close to the house. Love our shade & privacy. The spider gets into places no other heavy, bulky wide equipment can go. Leigh was totally upfront with everything both price and possible problems. We have nothing but praise for their professionalism and hard work. Thank you Leigh, Trevor & Bernard !! Also neighbors on both sides of us hired them as well."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree pruning is a common and helpful tree maintenance technique that involves carefully cutting and trimming unwanted branches so that the tree can continue to grow and thrive. Pruning is done carefully and intentionally. Tree topping is a frowned-upon method that involves removing and cutting most or the entirety of the top of the tree, including structurally important branches.

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.

An arborist specializes in tree care, performing tasks such as pruning, treating diseases, and removing hazardous trees. They also assess soil conditions, plant trees, and develop landscaping plans to ensure healthy growth. They also manage debris cleanup, inspect equipment, and record maintenance activities. Arborists often collaborate with landscapers and professional tree maintenance services, applying their specialized knowledge and problem-solving skills to maintain tree health and safety.

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.
