"ArborForce was one of two tree companies that I contacted for an estimate to remove three large trees. Their price was the same, but I was particularly impressed that their estimator was a certified arborist.

They removed the three trees very efficiently with no damage to the surrounding area. Their cleanup was 100%. Thank you to Justin, Bryan and the rest of the crew!"

"Greg and the crew from Little Bear were very nice and efficient.  They did an excellent job taking down a couple of tall trees and trimming some others and removed several bushes that were overgrown.    They were very professional, cleaned up all the limbs and left the yard looking really good.  We would definitely recommend Little Bear Tree Service and we will definitely use them again.

"They showed up on the jobsite as agreed and did an excellent job cutting down 80-foot oak trees which were located next to a wooden fen Job site and were leaning toward the house. They also cut down 4 smaller trees and I requested they leave one for my woodpile. They cut up and stacked the wood neatly and the final clean-up was excellent. I will use Carias Landscaping for any future needs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Unless it’s dead or dangerous, think twice about cutting down a tree in your yard. They’re good for health, well-being, wildlife, and the environment. Plus, local authorities often have regulations prohibiting the removal of trees, especially protected species or individual trees with historical value.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

If executed correctly your tree should survive after being transplanted to a new spot. However, effective transplanting requires six months, careful root pruning, safe transport to the new location, and replanting in prime soil conditions. You’ll also need an appropriately sized root ball for a complete tree transplant. A good rule of thumb is that, for every inch in diameter, your tree’s root ball needs to be around 11 inches. So a tree with a diameter of six inches needs a root ball of approximately 66 inches.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.
