"Gene Weldon was a pleasure to deal with. I have 5 large oak trees on my yard that I have been caring for over 20 years. I've learned the hard way to only hire a qualified arborist to care for my trees. Gene understood what I wanted and they showed up with the correct equipment and a quality crew. I am well pleased with their work."

"My yard was a mess and I did not know where to start. Trees have fallen, rotten tree trunks and trees were also growing into the fence and into my neighbor's property. I was referred to Tucker's tree service by a close friend and I am so thankful. Tucker came out looked at everything and gave me an affordable estimate. He was quick to respond, professional and understanding. He did the tree cutting, grinding and hauled away everything. I would not hesitate to use his tree company again nor would I have a problem referring him to anyone. When I was asked to leave a review on here for him, I felt like it was the least I could do for all his help."

"The two trees on the side are shade blocking the sun make it difficult for any grass to grow under them. I am changing to a different more shade tolerant grass in Oct or November for that area. I had used them before to trim the trees but I never assume everything as far as licensing is the same. When you are trimming trees overhanging your house you have to be careful. They have an Arborist which is also important. I could not tell you how many people came to do the job with no current license. They left it, could not find it or it had expired. Rebecca gave me hers for her company and I checked and it was valid. She even arranged to do some minor leveling stump grinding to make it easier for the riding mower and for the grass to lie flat when I plant it in the fall and they did not even break any of my inground sprinklers. i even added my 4 palms and my Robellini. TOP CLASS WORK!"

"I’ve used MJ Family Tree Service multiple times now, and they’ve done an excellent job every single time. They’re always professional, on time, and the quality of work is top notch. Most recently, they trimmed a large tree over my driveway and did an amazing job. They were very careful with the work, cleaned everything up thoroughly afterward, and left the area looking great. It’s hard to find companies that are this reliable and consistent nowadays. I highly recommend MJ Family Tree Service to anyone needing tree work done."

"The Tree Feller trimmed two big oak trees in my back yard and they look great. The crew was very professional and did an awesome job cleaning up. They even raked the leaves and removed a pile of dead branches that had fallen previously. I would recommend The Tree Feller to anyone looking for a true professional who is honest and dependable."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity. 

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.
