"We had a large Maple tree in our front yard that was leaning over the house so we hired Oak Tree Service take it down. They cut down the tree and cleaned up the yard in just a few hours, and removed all the branches & trunk. We highly recommend Christopher Perez and his crew."

"I worked with Bill he was very professional and gave me a great price to cut down and remove three trees from the property. He was timely for his appointment and completed the task in less than 4 hours. he cleaned the area and used a blower to ensure the yard had no debris left. I would recommend him for any tree job and will use him again if i need a tree person. Great job by professional personnel. Thank you"

"The service was excellent. I hired LW to cut a large oak tree down overhanging my home. I only asked them to cut the tree down and chip the branches. They went above and beyond by doing that, and cutting most of the tree into firewood. They left the site clean and even managed to work around most of the landscaping that was already in place."

"Brothers Contracting and Landscaping is FABULOUS to work with! They tore out our old, unsafe deck and replaced it with one twice the size and much, much sturdier. The also replaced our worn out front porch and shed doors and built completely new doors, as well as remodeling our damaged floor in our master bathroom and installing new fabulous flooring. They accomplished all this in about 3 1/2 weeks! On time, on budget, and with EXCELLENT workmanship. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BROTHERS!"

"LW Tree Service and Grading are great! I give them 10/10 stars;10 being the best! Lynn & William are wonderful people!!! William & Suzette completed the project in 3 days. They limbed up 4 trees close to the roof of the house & removed the very large maple tree in the backyard between two sheds. He went above & beyond!! He also removed an old swing set & a very heavy concrete culvert at no extra cost. He is also bringing us a load of fill dirt to cover the roots that had grown above the ground. We miss the shade from the large Maple but it was infected with carpenter ants, mushrooms, root rot, & a woodpecker so it had to go before it split & did major property damage. I would definitely hire them again!!! They were so nice I feel like I made 3 new friends which was the most unexpected part of the project. It is hard to find good people and hard to find good help BUT we found both with LW Tree Service and Grading. I highly recommend them; you won’t be disappointed, I promise!!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

In most ways, palm trees are incredibly low-maintenance. They don’t need a ton of water—which is why they’re so beloved in desert regions—and they basically prune themselves. But they do need an ample supply of sunlight and to be in soil that will allow for proper drainage so that their roots don’t become waterlogged and at risk of developing illnesses.

If the plant begins to wilt, develop spots, or change color, these could all be signs that your palm tree has a disease. But a few basic treatments, like pruning and applying fungicide, will usually be more than enough to return it to perfect health.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

It's easy to misidentify trees that appear to be maple trees due to similarities in leaf shapes. Sweetgum, sycamore, and yellow poplar all have leaf shapes and appearances similar to maples. The fact that around a dozen maple tree varieties exist, only about half of which are considered common, makes misidentification an often typical occurrence.
