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."

"Excellent service. I called with an emergency water main break issue that a massive tree's overgrown roots caused and blocked access to the break. Patric came out same day and worked hard late in the day to clear a complicated pathway to the pipe. Would absolutely hire again, excellent to work with, nice and understanding, great communicator"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

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 wondering whether you can plant a tree where the stump was removed, know that the soil conditions won’t be ideal, so you should avoid it. The soil beneath the previous tree will likely be depleted of nutrients, plus there may be roots left behind that will seriously hinder the growth of a new tree. Also, if you use salt or other chemical solutions to kill the stump, these can linger in the soil for months or even years and prevent healthy growth. It’s best to choose a different spot that’s at least three feet away for a new tree, or wait at least a year and thoroughly amend the soil before you plant.

The average tree pruning should take one hour with the right equipment. Light pruning of a small tree may only take around 15 to 20 minutes. Pruning multiple large trees in your yard will probably take several hours, including cleanup. However, tree pruning pros can do this job much faster, so you can rely on pros if you’re short on time.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.
