"Justin with Sawyers Tree Works was great, responsive, respectful, showed up on time, quoted me a reasonable price, and even was able to get the job done on super short notice. He and his crew did a great job, cleaned up after themselves, and even cut a few dead trees I hadn't prioritized. 10/10 recommend."

"Emerald Coast Arbor Care's customer service could not be better! They are the best and extremely efficient. They preformed above and beyond my expectations. The work was done neetly and beautifully. They were very cautious to protect the surroundings. They cleaned up meticulously. They inquired if I was pleased with their work and I must say that I am beyond pleased with the job that Emerald Coast Arbor Care preformed for me and I will certainly employ them again for any other arbor work to be done for my property and I would refer Emerald Coast Arbor Care's services to any others who have arbor care needs, Emerald Coast Arbor Care is truly the best!"

"great workers, great price. 4 of them came. they went above and beyond trimming large oak trees that were over 200 years old. On site they were willing to do extra work for a small additional fee. All of the cut wood was removed as requested...and they even raked the yard clean of all leaves & debris. I have other rental properties and will certainly be using this group again."

"The entire crew were very knowledgeable, courteous and prompt. This team does not use heavy equipment to access the branches and limbs, which saves the yard from being torn up. The fact that they climb the trees takes a little longer, but not much. And the final product was amazing. They are highly recommended!!!"

"Superior service from a true professional. I received four bids to have trees and overgrowth cleared from the perimeter of my yard which is surrounded by woods and uncleared lots on three sides. Danny Alvare responded to my home advisor request, followed up immediately with a visit to estimate the project and clearly captured my vision which was crucial to me in hiring someone. He priced fairly, executed promptly and exceeded my expectations in every way. He brings the right tools to do the job and is fully and personally engaged in the project ensuring the customer (me!) was not just satisfied but happy. Iâ m so glad he answered my request and I highly recommend him and his team all of whom were polite, professional and go well beyond what it expected to do things well. I would give 10 stars if I could."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Since each tree is different, it’s impossible to say how long a dead tree can remain on your property. While it could be days, months, or even years, it’s highly likely that, at some point, the tree will fall. In the meantime, dying or dead trees can become a haven for pests, so it’s best to have them removed sooner rather than later.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

There are many signs that a tree is diseased or dying, and if you suspect that’s the case, you should call an arborist immediately. You might notice rot or fungus on the trunk or that the tree is beginning to lean to one side. Brittle branches or signs of root damage are other indicators that a tree is in trouble. If the tree is dying, it might be time to cut the tree down so it doesn’t fall.

Dying trees and even dead trees can spread diseases to other living trees. There are many different types of tree diseases, so it’s essential to address the issue as soon as possible to prevent the disease from spreading to other healthy trees. If the tree cannot be saved and is infected, you need to have it removed to protect the other trees on your property.
