"The men who work for Sam's tree service are great guys, very friendly. I am extremely impressed with their courage and skill in taking down two large, old trees in my yard and grinding up the stumps. I will definitely call Sam again when I need to take another tree down, and I will definitely recommend Sam's Tree Service to my neighbors on both sides."

"I spoke to Ed about the job before lunch, and by 2:00 he had come to my house, given me a very reasonable estimate, and by 2:30, the tree was down and gone. They did an excellent clean-up after the job too. I definitely recommend Edward's Tree Service. They did a fantastic job!"

"A gentleman called just minutes after I saw the list your service provided. He was able to come to give me an estimate late in the afternoon THE SAME DAY. He came and we discussed the whole project (I had decided to have him look at my storm damaged mango trees also). He could not have been nicer . He was licensed and covered by liability insurance - and was not offended that I asked those questions- he also told me about the equipment that they would use—( I had seen some service providers have a worker climb a palm and hang there while cutting palm fronds off letting them fall to the ground) I was’t happy with that method as I was sure my palm was diseased and had dropped a good portion of it’s crown. He said they could come the next day and complete the whole project and haul away everything , I haired them. They followed through with everything and made me very happy. I would recommend them . They were great and worked well as a team . I would call on them again if needed."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

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.
