Customers say: Quick response

"Very professional company. The did much more than what I expected them to do. Very good pricing. Adam and Mike are very good people and their workers were very polite and helpful. My wife was very impressed with their service. I recommended them to a neighbor and she had them do some tree removals for her. She was also very satisfied. Mike is an Arborist so he identified problem trees that most other people would have missed. I normally cut down my trees and many neighbors have been my customers. So I know what they did was top notch quality, at a GOOD price. I highly recommend this company."

"Rivera Landscaping did an outstanding job in building my retaining wall and patio area under my deck. He was very professional throughout the project and was more than willing to answer any questions my wife and I had while they were working. The reason why I can't give them a 5-Star rating is because I felt their cleaniness of the work area was not up to my standard. On the day they brought dirt in, it was placed in front on my house. They transport the dirt to the backyard and at the end of the day, I had a big dirt stain in the street in which I told them needed to be cleaned prior to them leaving. Bottom line the family and I cleaned it."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project.  

You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.

Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.
