Customers say: True professional

"I contacted this company to remove and replace a palm tree in the front of my house and to remove a large hard wood tree in the rear. The contact person is Frank, the owner. He is very involved in all aspects of the project. He keeps in contact by phone and supervises the work while it is in progress. His men are very friendly and expert in their work. I found this company to be extremely easy to work with and very professional. I would recommend them any time."

Customers say: Quality work

"I hired ASAP to trim the limbs of a few trees. A couple of them are very difficult to reach. ASAP provide me with a fair estimate and were available to start working within a couple of days. There was some confusion about the right equipment needed to do the job so the workers were idle for some time waiting for the equipment. That caused the job to be completed in two days instead of one. But what I liked the most is the quick responsiveness of the people in the office. They also trimmed the limbs exactly as I requested. They retrieved the trash in the morning of the 3rd day. They left it a little dirty (leaves and small sticks) after the pick up. The workers were polite and respectful. Overall it was a very good experience and will definitely hire them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

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.

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

There are several signs that may indicate a tree needs to be cut down. These include visible damage to the trunk or branches, a hollow trunk, extensive storm damage, or a significant lean to one side. Other warning signs are pest infestations or the tree growing too close to a house, power lines, or other structures. It is best to hire a professional arborist to inspect the tree, as they can determine if it can be saved or if removal is necessary.
