"To summarize for those who don't like to read lengthy reviews, Jay and his team should be your first contact for all projects related to landscaping and lawn care in the Jacksonville area. The process started off with a walk-through so Jay could better understand our vision, end goal, and budget. Not only was he receptive to our ideas, but he also recommended even better alternatives from his years of experience. Once the plan was set, he and his team were communicative and prompt every morning. They worked tirelessly throughout the entire project to make sure the job was done right. The end result was nothing shy of perfection. We've received countless compliments from neighbors, with some even subsequently hiring Jay (and team) because of the quality of work. Needless to say, I would highly recommend Best Tree Service if you're looking for a transformational job that's done right the first time."

"ABSOLUTELY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! I am a real estate broker and property manager and we only use Forever Woods for all of our tree service needs, no matter how big or small. The owner, Leroy, has the highest integrity and work ethic and I always refer him to others. His team is respectful of the property and the customer and if I could give him 10 stars, I would! Honestly, there isn’t anything but good things I could say about the company, the owner, and his team!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

Yes, carefully prune back dead branches—don’t wait for pruning season. This helps keep your maple tree healthy and also helps prevent large branches from falling unexpectedly. Don’t seal the cut branch—trees can naturally take care of these wounds—but be sure to remove any source of fungus or pest infestation to help save the tree.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.
