"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I first used Over the Top Tree Care back in 2018 when they removed 10 large Leyland Cypresses from our property. The crew was professional, efficient, and left everything spotless. It was a big job, and they handled it seamlessly. Fast forward to 2026 after the blizzard they showed up quickly! This time not helping myself, but overall 10 home owners in my neighborhood with storm damage and tree removal. In a stressful situation, they were organized, responsive, and worked tirelessly to get everyone taken care of safely and quickly. Communication with Jason has been fantastic. He’s clear, honest, and always keeps you informed throughout the process, which makes all the difference during big projects and emergencies. I truly can’t recommend this team enough. If you need tree work done right, they’re the ones to call. 🌳💪"

"Crimson Bay did a beautiful job cleaning up my existing landscaping areas. They took out the old stones & washed them. They pulled up the old plastic & leveled out the ground underneath, removed moss from the concrete wall, added a weed deterrent, laid down new landscaping paper, & put the cleaned stones back & added edging. They were professional, polite, & worked diligently. I thought the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.

The Christmas tree type that smells the best to you will ultimately depend on personal preference. But if that classic Christmas tree smell is important to you, choosing a type of tree known for its scent is a safe bet. Try a balsam fir for a spicy, comforting scent or a Douglas fir for a sweeter smell. You may also like Fraser firs, Scotch pines, and blue spruces.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.
