"This company was a pleasure to work with. Did all tree pruning work that I requested. His team was diligent and cleaned and removed all debris. The yard was left better than when they began. Company prices are very reasonable. They will be back to help clear some small trees that are in flower beds. I highly recommend this company."

"I was pleased with the amount of time that was spent with me both on the phone and when a representative came out to speak with me and assess the project. They had a lot of knowledge regarding the trees and the issues we were dealing with. The crew that came out were very respectful and did a good job. Our trees have thrived based on the work that they've done. I'll hire them again. In fact, I'll be calling them for some more work soon."

"We had a great experience with this company. They were working in our neighborhood and stopped by to see if we needed any tree work, so we were able to have everything done the same day. They removed several trees, trimmed our larger trees, and ground the stumps. The crew of about 10 people worked efficiently, checked in with us to make sure we were happy with the trimming, left some of the mulch behind just as we requested, and did a thorough job cleaning up before they left. The owner was polite and respectful, and the price was very reasonable. We would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

Homeowners are usually not responsible for trees that fall on power lines. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.

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.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.
