"I 100% recommend this company for all your tree work needs! Josh and his crew showed up bright and early on the day we had agreed on and did an absolutely awesome job in one day! Mind you our tree was enormous but they did everything with amazing skill and left everything completely clean afterwards. Very reasonable price too! We’re very pleased."

"I will be using All About Landcaping again for additional projects. Benny was extremely responsive with all communication, was extremely reasonable with pricing and did excellent work! We had Benny and his team trim and reshape 3 sets of 20 foot arborvites which was a challenging task to start, but they worked this project with ease. One set of the arborvites is located alongside our inground pool and they were very professional with the process so they made cleanup look effortless. The pool was clear of any debris and for this I was most appreciative! If I was able to share before / after I sure would as the results were fantastic. We will be making contacting with All About Lanscaping for power washing / painting our house next. Highly recommend!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don’t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

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.

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.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.
