"Organic Enlightenment is definitely the company you want to reach out to for all of your tree servicing needs, They have the equipment for every job. These guys are so professional and hard-working. They were here on one of the hottest days of the year and they never stopped. The owner checked all of my trees carefully and planned his work with an eye for symmetry and design. One of the trees was the first tree I ever learned to climb as a kid, and it still holds lots of sentimental value for me. I didn't want to lose a lot of shade, and it turned out so much better than I had hoped. All of the branches over the house were cut and cleared, leaving plenty of shade to cool the house. I love driving home now and seeing my trees as I come down the street, they look beautiful! And clean-up? Life they were never even here! My yard was spotless! I have never been more pleased with a contractor and would certainly use them again and recommend them highly!"

"Mike and his crew took great care with my yard to perform the task of removing three difficult trees. I was amazed to watch how careful they were with making sure my surroundings stayed in tact while downing the trees. I was especially impressed with the one tree that Mike took down in one shot. It stood between my shed and neighbors swimming pool. He got it to fall exactly between them without one bit of damage to anything. I was very happy with the work that was performed. I would definitely recommend Evergreen to anyone that needs tree service. I would hire him again in a heartbeat! Thanks Mike"

"The company was very prompt with the estimate. When doing the job they arrived on time, got in, did the work and were gone. They did an excellent job with the clean up after removing the tree. They cleaned up every branch and leaf. You couldn't tell that a tree was removed from my property. I would highly recommend this GM 2 Tree Service."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

Common signs that a tree is rotting include dead branches, a leaning trunk, peeling or cracked bark, leaf discoloration, and the presence of fungi. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to hire an arborist near you to inspect your tree and determine if it can be saved or if it needs to come down.

Make sure the tree roots soak around a day before you dig the tree up for the transplant. Keep the roots wet while the tree is above ground. After the transplant is finished, provide consistent water every day for the first month or so. You don’t want to overwater the tree, but you do want to keep the roots wet so they can thrive in their new environment.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking.
