"Good experience. Fast, professional and a price that was well below all the other competetors. Plus he actually did the right thing and checked on permit and got arborist to write a letter (all for no additional fee). I'm running out of trees, but if I need any more trimming, J Macias is definitely who I'm calling. (Remove one large laurel okay, major trim to second large laurel oak -- $2800)"

"Alex and his crew were amazing. We had some tree removal and trimming work done. My wife was worried about the clean up, thinking she would have a lot to clean up. But they did a fabulous job. Would definitely recommend Alex and his crew."

"I can easily recommend Gold Palm Solutions if you need tree removal. I was quite satisfied with their price. I did have them include stump grinding. Of course, the cleanup was excellent. I also had them secure a Shady Lady tree for me so I could get that in the ground. Although a separate contract for me several days after the tree removal, I was glad to have them make a wise decision on the perfect tree. They brought it, installed it, and really took care throughout the process. I was once again impressed with their skills. Most of my interactions were with Alex and Jay. I can only say I enjoyed working with them. They are both personable and were willing to answer my numerous questions. They seemed genuinely interested in being sure I was satisfied with everything. I appreciated this a lot. If you are looking for an honest, fair, skilled tree removal service and/or related services, I'd recommend giving them a call."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

Finding a reliable arborist starts with researching specialists in your area and checking their licensing and certifications. Use online resources like the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to conduct research on each company. Next, contact the arborist and ask the following questions to see whether they are the right fit for your project:

  • Do you handle or specialize in dealing with the issue I’m having?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Do you have any third-party certifications?

  • What equipment and strategies do you plan to use?

Most tree removals take 3-8 hours, requiring additional time for stump grinding or debris hauling.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.
