"John is an arborist and knows his craft. Fair price, cleaned up and removed debris. He removed dead limbs from hurricane Ian, many crossover limbs, and removed weight from the canopy in an oak tree in our backyard. Looks like a new tree. Also removed a palm tree next to the house that was becoming a threat to the roof. Thanks Paradise and John!!"

"From my first contact with Elevated Lawn and Landscape, I had a professional experience. The Landscape architect listened to my needs and chose plants that were in line with my neighborhood. The crew was top notch. They kept me informed and answered my concerns. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs a c lean out, or just help to update their area."

"Justin's crew came by, quietly set to work, and with minimal fuss and disturbance removed a 25-foot tree which was leaning against my gutter. They worked very quickly and left the area completely clean, as if neither they nor the tree had ever been their."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don’t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

If you’re taking down a tree that you don’t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it’s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or dying trees without infecting nearby trees. 

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.

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.
