"Aguilar Lopez and his crew were on time, courteous, and very professional. They worked to understand exactly what I needed. I basically had two giant oak trees that needed quite a lot of trimming and they priced the job very reasonably. Did a great job cleaning up all the limbs and leaves afterwards. Would absolutely recommend their services."

"Wonderful job. They showed up on time and trimmed this very large tree. There were branches over my roof and my neighbors roof. Not one branch touched either house during trimming. He knows what he is doing and works well with his crew. All branches and debris were mulched and taken away."

"They did a fantastic job for me. After speaking with them they came right out. Power washed, repaired, painted and sealed driveway and walk-ways. Power washed entire home, repaired and secured roof, painted shutters and trim around steps and doors. Trimmed the overgrown palm tree. Very professional and personable and great to work with. Received lots of compliments and would highly recommend them. Great job and many thanks."

"I had 3 small palms and 2 hardwood tree trunks removed. The workers cut the roots with axe sledges and hauled the trunks and sections over 6" away. I am a fussy customer and could not be happier now. Highly recommended!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, you do not have the right to take fruit from a neighbor's tree, even if the branches overhang your property. The fruit is considered the property of the tree's owner. While you may have the right to trim branches that cross into your yard, the fruit on them typically still belongs to your neighbor. However, laws can vary by state and municipality. In some areas, branches that extend into your yard or trees that straddle a property line may entitle you to some of the fruit. The best course of action is to speak with your neighbor, as they may be happy to share. If a conversation is not possible, check your local regulations before picking any fruit.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.
