"They did an excellent job of removing an overgrown arborvitae in front of my home in May 2023. Before I was finished taking notes from a phone call to request recommendations from Angi.com, Mike called me right away! He was pleasant and very professional, taking time to ask me about the tree, my surrounding landscape and address any questions that I had. Within a few hours, he was at our home to provide a quote and do an overview of the service. On the morning of the appointment, they arrived bright and early, keeping us updated as they removed the tree, ground the stump and carefully repositioned some stones and other decorative garden items we had in that area. With the fair pricing, responsiveness and doing such a neat, precise job of making sure that our landscape looked great before they left, I could not have been more pleased."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It is good to spray water on a Christmas tree to help keep the needles hydrated. Spraying a Christmas tree with water prevents dryness, stops needles from falling off, and reduces the risk of fire.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

Generally, avoid trimming trees in the summer (with the exception of pruning fruit trees as needed). Trees use a lot of energy in the summer, most of which is relegated to new growth. If you chop it too early, you could stunt the next season's growth. Again, when in doubt, do some research based on the specific tree type.

Debris removal is often included in the overall cost of having a tree removed from your property. However, tree maintenance service companies do not always include debris removal in their pricing, so ask any contractors offering tree trimming cost estimates whether or not removal is included. If you want to keep the wood mulch, ask if they charge extra for it as well.
