"Called Sunbird Properties Maintenance to remove and look at some of my trees. Came out quickly to give the estimate and went over what do do with some of my trees to help get them healthy again, and the ones that needed to be removed. Scheduled the service, guys came out and confirmed what they were going to do and were able to complete the job quickly. and left no mess at all. Great company to work with!"

"Within 30 minutes of submitting my info on Home Advisor, I had 3 tree service companies respond, and all 3 came out to give quotes within a day. We chose Southern Tree Service LLC because they offered the most for the most reasonable price. Project included 5 100-foot pine trees and one oak. This tree service is amazing, professional and they had all the tools to do the job with ease. A bucket truck was used for 5 of the trees which were extremely tall and very close to a shed. They tied off branches and lowered them and never touched the shed. The last tree needed a climber because the bucket truck couldn't reach it. It was amazing to watch these guys. Chain saws were well maintained and cut through the trees like butter. They had large trailers for debris and a great Kubota loader to move debris. At the end of the day, a "rake brigade" (about 5 guys with rakes) moved through the area and cleaned everything up. 2 of my neighbors also hired these guys to do some work for them while they were there. The stump grinder guy was a sub-contractor who followed up the next day. We added several stumps to the original 2 that we had contracted and the price was super reasonable. Great guys with excellent tools for large jobs, professional, polite, licensed and insured. I would recommend this company to anyone and we plan to use them in the future for more tree removal."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Overall, they did a very good job of cutting down all five tall turkey oaks and removing the felled trees. They were here on time and worked rapidly. No problems there. However, their tractor left huge gouges in the soil that took me some time to smooth over and repair. Something they should bear in mind as by using their tractor at the end and smoothing the area over, would be a big plus. Norm Schmidt. Hernando."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

Dutch elm disease can’t harm humans. In fact, according to Cal Fire, bark beetles aren’t even typically dangerous to trees unless that tree is already weakened. The problem comes when Dutch elm disease kills a tree. That tree is more at risk of falling and catching fire, which can pose a serious threat.

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.

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.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.
