"They responded to the listing right away. I did not have to wait for a proposal for the work they gave a written proposal on the spot. They scheduled the job within a few days. Cleaned all debris from cutting trees from ground and pavement. Professional trucks and equipment and several crew members were used on site. Showed business license on spot, called in commercial liability insurance and received by email next day and filled out 4-9 form on spot prior to payment. Arrived on time and finished in estimated time. 4 large, tall trees were removed from a precarious location between two warehouse buildings, (on a deep slope and only 10 feet between buildings), and intermingled with cables and electric lines, with the trees that grew up along side chain link fence and over top branches over both roof tops of building. The job was done in 3 1/2 hours! Their price beat every one else's price. I took 4 estimates from different contractors, two from Angi's list, which were the best prices and competitively bid the other two were called from other sources,(advertising in mail), and they quoted more then double and said it would take them 2 days to complete the work! I am beyond pleased with the job they did and I highly recommend them. I will be using Golden Tree Services again!"

"I would recommend LA's Quality Tree Service to anyone who wants a professional tree service After the blow of high winds left our yard with one 80 foot tree uprooted and crashing down on two other smaller trees and numerous other tree damage. Luis came out with in an hour after calling his company. Gave a very fair price. The crew came out the next day and started the clean up. They were on time every morning and worked two full days. Cutting down six trees (25' to 80') Lots of downed branches (some 25' long and about 18" thick) and grinded the tree stump. The whole crew was professional, cleaned up every evening. Thankful we found LA's Quality Tree Service."

"These days it's hard to get some tree services to even return your calls. Jason at Guacamaya proactively contacted me, came right out to give an estimate, then did the job to my specifications within a couple days. He's a real nice guy as well. I highly recommend this company. Guacamaya is the only tree service you need to call."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.

Yes, it is highly recommended to remove tree stumps. Leaving them in the ground can lead to several problems, as they are not only unsightly but can also reduce your property's value. Stumps can obstruct landscaping plans, make mowing difficult, and hinder new growth. More importantly, they are prime breeding grounds for pests like termites, ants, and mice, which can spread to your home and cause costly damage to its wood and foundation. Stumps also attract fungi and diseases that can infect other healthy trees and plants in your yard. As a stump decays, it might sprout new, unwanted shoots. While removing a stump is an investment, it prevents these potential issues and enhances the safety, health, and appearance of your landscape.

When a palm tree no longer produces new fronds and old fronds start turning yellow-brown, that’s a sign the tree is dying. However, transplanted palm trees can show these signs for the first several months as they re-establish themselves. It’s best to keep watering and not give up on the palm tree until a couple of seasons have passed and you’re sure it’s not coming back to life.

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.
